Qigong Workshop with Robert Ortner

Qigong pronounced (chee gung), is an ancient health maintenance system from China that combines breathing, slow movement, and visualizations into a simple and elegant practice that can look like simple stretching or meditation. But inside, Qigong is a practice that can teach us how to realize the potential of our “Qi” in every cell and organ in our bodies. This workshop is 40 dollars per person. Please register in advance.

Restorative Yoga with Reiki Healing
- A delicious blend of hands on and Yoga healing. Join Rita Trieger and Fern Guerra for two hours of restorative yoga while receiving hands on or hands above Reiki healing. Restorative Yoga is ‘passive’ Yoga where the body is fully supported with blankets, bolsters, and blocks in Yoga postures to enhance the flow of prana through specific pathways in the body for nourishment and restoration. Reiki is the healing art of encouraging the flow of ones own energy (universal life force) through the body. Reiki promotes healing on all levels and leaves one feeling relaxed, soothed and with a general sense of well being. Please pre register online here. 45 dollars per person.

Svaha: A Fire Workshop with Lyn Girdler
- Svaha: An offering to the fire. An oblation. A goddess and wife of Agni (fire god). In this workshop we practice intently, deeply. We hold: time, the moment, our sacredness. We build: heat, strength, wisdom, our connectedness. We offer: truth, softness, our breath. Join us in this two hour workshop where we hold asana for an extended period of time. The poses are simple but will be deep. Poetry will be read. Silence will beckon and then we’ll soften into long stretches and deep seated forward bends. The point is to feel your edge and be amazed at your own ability to soften into it. You will learn about what you can hold in order to give up since heat is nature’s way of taking what you don’t need and cleasing one’s spirit. Your body will feel transformed. Your spirit will alight.
