Group Restorative Yoga is an opportunity to gather your friends, family, co-workers, favorite couples or best buds and invite them to a unique yoga class that helps to heal and balance our body systems, while settling our mind and nourishing our soul. Mindfulness and guided meditation will help to anchor your mind and bring ease to your body, as you release more deeply into each pose. Classes are customized to your group's needs and preferences.
Restorative Yoga activates our parasympathetic nervous system to promote deep relaxation. Chairs, blankets, blocks, eye pillows, bolsters, straps, and/or sand bags may be used to help support, stretch, and relax the body in each pose.
*See Yoga Page for more information.

The theme of this training will be to introduce mindfulness as a life skill, share some simple science behind the practice, and explore the basic components for developing your personal practice: Breath & Body Awareness, Maintaining Emotional Balance, and Managing Mental Chatter, without being judgmental.
Restorative Yoga can feel like you escaped to a nourishing retreat for your mind, body, and spirit; however, an untrained mind can make this experience more challenging and it deters many people from giving Restorative Yoga a try at all.
Our Progressive Group Class Series will get you started with some basic mental training practices. Each class builds upon the previous class' skills (by learning and practicing together), culminating in a full, 45 minute, final Restorative Yoga Class.
*Train your mind and enhance your yoga experience!
Progressive Group Class Series:
4 (45 minute) classes for $80 per person Email Maria to schedule your Group.
(3 person min. and 6 person max.)
This topic, provides parents with the steps to cultivate a personal mindfulness practice in order to fortify themselves (mentally and physically) for the very challenging, yet very rewarding, job of parenting.
This training touches on mindful practices that can be shared with the entire family (youth - teens), in an effort to cultivate harmony in the home and to encourage a healthy and happy lifestyle.
Flow is an optimal state where we feel and perform at our best, creativity and productivity soar!
Once you have become more skillful in mindfulness, you increase your chances of 'finding flow', a state of heightened focus, feeling fully alive and fully engaged in whatever you're doing. This training will address how to practice mindfulness in order to achieve more moments of flow in your day and to be the best 'you' you can be.
It's challenging to stay committed to your mindfulness practice....we get bored, frustrated, forgetful, busy, or distracted. This training shares some tricks to sustaining your practice for the long hall. Set appropriate expectations and intentions, try a new approach (moving meditation), learn a variety of breath practices (pranayama), and discover mantras (recite a word/phrase in a rhythmic pattern) to help spice up your mindfulness practice and keep your commitment to mind-body health.
"Your beliefs become your thoughts. Your thoughts become your words. Your words become your actions. Your actions become your habits. Your habits become your values. Your values become your destiny." (Mahatma Gandhi) In this training you'll explore how the traditional yoga principles apply to our modern lifestyle. Learn how you can live like a Yogi, dispel past stereotypes and begin to invite more balance, self-discipline, energy, meditation, kindness, and peace into your life.
This is a simple breathing practice sometimes used at the beginning of my adult classes to help everyone "Arrive & Anchor" as they settle into their mindful bodies. (kids enjoy this as well)
This is a sample video clip of Mindful Mini-Breaks for Kids. Students practice getting into a mindful body, have fun with superhero breaths, and learn a mindfulness practice called Squeeze & Release
Yoga and Mindfulness practices benefit all human beings. These practices provide a fun and engaging way to help youth, with a range of diagnosis and developmental disabilities (such as: Anxiety, Autism, ADHD, ADD, Sensory Processing Disorder, Cerebral Palsy, and Down Syndrome), to improve body awareness, physical and mental strength, and the ability to balance emotions.
Practice Yoga & Mindfulness as a family and discover a world of benefits! Children learn skills they can carry into adulthood. Parents connect with their kids (teens too), with a sense of ease and openness (even with a little playfulness). Family yoga is a time to move, breathe, stretch, smile and laugh together....as we receive and appreciate many health benefits as well!!
If you've never tried Restorative Yoga, you're missing out on an opportunity to experience deep relaxation and rejuvenation of body, mind, and spirit. Restorative yoga is accessible to everyone, with the use of blankets, blocks, pillows, and other optional props to fully support your body, in floor/seated poses, that allow you to completely drop whatever you're gripping and RELAX - HEAL - RESTORE!
