Several announcements for March!

March Specialty Classes:

Functional Movement:  Great news!  I will be teaching my rescheduled Therapeutic Yoga for Shoulders and Hips on Saturday, March 12th, 2:30-4:00 pm, at Body Grace Fitness and Yoga in Vienna, VA. 
 
This class is a terrific way to become more deeply attuned to your body's inner messages, particularly if you tend to experience limitation through your shoulders and hips.  Through small, mindful and gentle yoga-inspired therapeutic movements (seated, standing and supine) and a connection to natural breath, participants can quiet tension and nurture calm in both muscle and mind as they explore their optimal range of motion and then apply this knowledge to yoga poses.  
 
Please reserve a spot with Jan at [email protected].

March: Asteya
 
It is March!  We have traveled down the path exploring yoga’s ethical principles, with stops studying non-harm and truthfulness.  This month we go further with our study of the Yamas and Niyamas as we reach asteya - Sanskrit for nonstealing.
 
Nonstealing!
