LET LOVE RULE!
Full disclosure: I'm not much of a romantic. The most romantic thing I do all year is make Jeff a heart-shaped brownie for Valentine's Day dessert. And that's usually accompanied by a snarky card like the one I included below for your amusement. But Valentine's Day is still my favorite holiday of the year because once we expand our view of the day beyond the diapered cupids, boxes of chocolates and long-stemmed roses from your "one true love", EVERYONE can celebrate that most magnificent expression of our life force: LOVE!!!
At KSY we're celebrating all month long! We celebrate the tender heart with our Divine Play Partner Yoga Workshop with Mary, the healing heart with Laura's Restorative Class and the courageous heart with both Sarah's Kalari classes and the Vira Sadhana Teacher Training week with Gina.
Be fearless with your love - our hearts are powerful and resilient! The Sufi poet Rumi was never at a loss for words when it came to waxing about love - here's one of my favorites:
“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it." ~ Rumi
Yours in LOVE,
Gina
DIVINE PLAY! - Partner Yoga & Chocolate with Mary + Richard Anderson Saturday, February 11
 |
In this FUN workshop, we'll explore yoga partner play ranging from assisted stretching (flowing & mirroring) and simple AcroYoga therapeutic poses to Thai Yoga massage and round it all out with a deep savasana (final relaxation) to seal in the connection and union we've expressed in simple principals of trust, loving kindness & compassion.
This is the perfect time of year to rekindle the inner flame - why do the usual dinner and roses when there are so many meaningful ways to celebrate connection?! Though it's a fun and healthy alternative to the usual, this celebration of LOVE is not just for the romantically connected! Love flows in so many forms - not just cupids and arrows! This workshop is for every BODY, so don't be shy. Take home some techniques you'll remember and want to share forever. |
Rekindling The Flame: VIRA SADHANA A Teacher Training Weekend and Open To All Monday - Saturday, Feb 20-25
|
It's back by popular demand!! Vira means "hero" or "warrior" and the related word virya means "potency, activation, transformation". Vira Sadhana is a week-long daily practice where we will reignite the sacred flame of life with humility and confidence and embrace challenges to approach our potential in strength, flexibility and inner presence. With a love of living fully, we will explore destructive mental-emotional and relationship patterns as well as the cultivation of whole being health and purification using solar energy and tapas-based asana sequences along with mantra, kriya and pranayama.
