Upcoming Workshops
Valentine's Day Partner Workshop
When: Saturday, February 11, 2012
Time: 1:00pm - 3:00 pm
This Partner Yoga Workshop invites participants to have fun and be light in their practice while sharing it with a partner. This is a great opportunity to invite a friend who always talks about trying yoga, but is a bit nervous to just show up at class. It is also amazing for couples to connect and share this deeply personal practice and arena of growth. For those of you regular yogis and yoginis, It feels good to connect with a friend or loved one as you open deeply in this physical practice, and feel supported through your emotions as well. We laugh, breathe, meditate and explore yoga through various lenses through this unique experience.
Cost: $20 -- Bring a Guest for only $10
The Big Leap Challenge
February 29-March 28, 2012
The Big Leap Challenge is 28 Days of Yoga, Meditation and Life Coaching with Sharon Wells as your guide. Here’s the bottom line: We have an inner thermostat that determines the amount of love and success we allow ourselves. When we exceed our setting, we tend to sabotage ourselves so that we can return to the old, familiar zone where we feel secure. The thermostat was set before you could think for yourself, usually in early childhood. You can consciously re-set your thermostat and go all the way to your full measure of success in love and money. The Big Leap shows you how.
Meetings: Wednesdays - 6:45 - 8:00 pm
Cost: $99 - YOC Member
$199 - Non - Member
