Spend an hour a week for 6 weeks getting to know yourself by beginning your Yoga practice. Chairs will be provided to use throughout the course, you will not need to be on floor.

We will cover breathwork, sun salutations, postures, history and philosophies of Yoga, plus much, much more!

You will be cued into a selection of poses. A variety of props (blankets, bolsters, chairs, eye pillows etc.) will be supplied to support and stabilize the body and promote relaxation and renewal.

Each pose will be met with an experienced licensed therapist who will help bring ease and and comfort to famous places you carry tension: the neck, back and shoulders.

Kirtan is an Indian musical art form that includes the listeners in the form of call-and-response singing. Your leader, Marla, a second generation Indian-American who lives in Rochester, NY, will lead you through listening and warm up exercises so that you are comfortable participating. This is not a performance, but a yoga experience where you come into greater connection with your own voice and how you express yourself in the world. This is an excellent workshop for someone who would like to deeply connect to their voice, loves to sing, loves mantras, chanting, or is a yogi. When we chant in Sanskrit we connect to what the yogis heard deep in the Himalayas and eventually wrote in the Vedas. We don’t just understand it on an intellectual level, but on the level of personal experience.

A Sound Bath is a Relaxation Technique and Meditative experience where participants ”Bathe” in the sound waves.

Sound Therapy has been used for thousands of years in many cultures, all with the same intentions – to move us from a place of Imbalance to a place of Balance.

The sound stimulates circulation and the Immune system, cleanses our energy meridians, and helps emotions stored in our body – emotions like Anger, Stress and Trauma.

Sound Baths promote Deep Relaxation. They have been proven to help with Anxiety, Insomnia, Chronic Pain and even Depression. It can provide a DEEP RESET for your whole body.
