MELT into summer with Erin Fleming!
Did you know that the most abundant system in your body is connective tissue and that new science is revealing that the source of most inflammation and pain is dehydrated connective tissue?
Hailed by doctors and health practitioners around the world as the ultimate in self-care and pain relief, the MELT Method uses soft rollers and specialized hand + foot treatment balls to reduce inflammation, increase hydration, enhance mobility, and immediately decrease aches and pains.
All MELT Method tools and equipment will be provided at the studio.
All levels welcome. MELT into Summer

Finding Balance in Difficult Times
by
Oren Jay Sofer
Equanimity is balance born of wisdom; it’s our heart and mind’s capacity to roll with the inevitable challenges and changes of life without taking it personally, without falling into despair or hopeless. Rather than a bland state of neutrality, or a cold state of indifference, equanimity gives us a wide space to feel the whole range of human experience, and the poise to act with wisdom and care rather than reactivity. Whether it’s personal loss and difficulty, challenges in relationship, or the immense pain our world is facing, equanimity is the indispensable quality that allows us to meet life with grace and balance, and at times to keep going in the face of extraordinary hardship.
Learn to:
o Find balance with difficult emotions
o Understand how we get reactive and what helps us to let go
o Get perspective when challenged overwhelmed
This evening program will include a guided meditation, lecture, and time for Q&A. The evening will be followed by a book signing.

Restorative Yoga Sound Healing
by
Sharon + Jeff Dawson
Experience the synchronicity of yoga, sound, and crystal grid. Sharon and Jeff Dawson guide you through a restorative yoga, sound healing experience. This carefully orchestrated series of restorative poses, sound, and crystal grid gently releases soft tissue surrounding the muscles where tension and trauma are stored. The studio is cleared and energetically charged with a crystal grid to support your healing journey. The sound of the crystal bowls activates and aligns each of your seven chakras, creating balance. All asanas are practiced on the floor with the support of blankets, bolsters, and blocks. Rest comfortably and quietly in each pose as you drop into a state of deep, peaceful meditation. You'll leave feeling refreshed and revitalized! Dress comfortably, in layers and if you like, bring an eye pillow to cover the eyes. All levels are welcome.

Dynamic Movement
by
Peter Bartesch
 Do you have trouble figuring out what muscles should be worked in each pose? Are you stiff when you first step onto your mat, maybe from lingering injuries or just day- to-day living? Sore from other activities like running, biking, weight lifting or sitting at a desk? If you said yes to any of these then this workshop is for you! We'll start with a discussion about dynamic motion before breaking down a series of movements as a warm-up. Once ready, we'll move through a slow class implementing dynamic motion into standing poses as well as floor stretching. Benefits of this workshop include: • How to properly warm up a joint before actively calling upon the muscles, tendons or ligaments • Feeling the difference between passive and active range of motion • Dynamic motion as a way to improve a static asana practice • Learning the difference between using flexibility vs strength in a pose • Moving energy towards and away from stiffness to balance between effort and ease Dynamic Movement

Heal Your Neck! Unraveling the Knots of the Neck, Shoulders + Upper Back
by
Sara Hess
 Modern technology offers countless benefits, but the fact remains: many of us spend hours sitting in front of our computer or hunched over our mobile phone and tablet, and the repetitive movement patterns associated with using these digital devices can wreak havoc on neck and shoulder happiness. Our use of tech can cause not just strain, but also weakness! Surprisingly, one reason so many of us suffer from chronic neck tension is because our neck muscles are weak!
Stretching and massages, while relaxing, don't address the underlying causes of the discomfort. Join Sara Hess in this 2-hour workshop and learn to move in ways that realign your posture, help release tension, and promote more functional, strengthening movement patterns.
In this workshop, you will learn:
- Exercises to increase upper back + shoulder mobility, stability, and function.
- How to induce relaxation and reduce stress, increasing the benefit of your neck/shoulder exercises.
