Yoga Center of Eau Claire instructors; teaching yoga for YOU!

Be sure to visit the Workshops page for 2010 Beginner's Class Series and new Workshop offering

Summer Fun!

Summer is always exciting, like walking/riding/driving around a bend coming upon a new vista. We tend to let go of our everyday lives and celebrate. Celebration doesn't always have to be what one of my college friends called 'mindless thrill seeking'; it can be mindful savoring of those things that we don't usually take time to savor.

How about waking in the morning, taking a few deep mindful breaths, and asking your body what it wants or needs? Taking time for an oil massage before your morning shower? Doing some asana under a tree? Placing your bare feet mindfully on the path on the way to the beach? Sitting in meditation on the dock while the sun goes down--so many ways to take your yoga with you! When you come back to class after the holidays, ask your classmates how they took their yoga with them. Maybe you'll get some good ideas for next holiday.

 


A quick note for the summer months.  Anna will be taking a hiatus from teaching this summer. 

Please note that there will be no Pilates classes held this summer and that Nancy will now be teaching the Wednesday 4pm Multi level Yoga class.


Beginner's Yoga Series

Ready to try something new?

Are you a beginner, or would you like to refresh the basic principles and poses of yoga? The Yoga Center offers Beginner's series, four classes one week apart that will walk you through those basics, allowing you to experience hatha yoga in your body and understand some about it in your mind.  Principles covered include grounding, core strengthening, extending, breath awareness and full exhalation, economy of action so that you can do the work necessary in a pose and relax the rest of your body, beginning awareness of the energy body, and systematic relaxation. When you complete the beginner's series, you will be well equipped to join any of our multi-level classes.

Current offerings:

Saturdays, July 31 - August 21, 11:00 - 12:15pm with Sandra

Mondays, August 9 - 30, 4:00 - 5:15pm with Sarah

Cost: $36 for the four week series

Please note that all beginner's classes require pre-registration


If you are interested, call the Yoga Center at 715-830-0321 and let us know when you would be able to attend a class. Classes will be scheduled as possible for the studio and teacher and as students are available. Classes will appear on the website at least a week or two before they begin, so check the workshops page frequently. The Beginner's Series is a great way to check out yoga.

PRIVATE LESSONS AND CLASSES

Do you wish you had time for a weekly yoga class, but it just doesn't fit in your schedule?

Do you wish that you had more time with your yoga teacher to study some of your yoga questions deeper?

Do you have an injury or condition that makes a group class inappropriate for you?

Do you want guidance in using yoga therapeutically for your needs?

You may want to consider a private class. Sometimes a monthly private class creates the opportunity to move more quickly and to effectively develop a Hatha Yoga program appropriate for your individual wants and needs.

Sandra (715-830-0321) and Patricia (715-830-0706) offer private instruction and therapeutic yoga.

Anna (715-830-0321) is available for private instruction in Pilates, one-on-one yoga and partner yoga.
