With Patricia Lutz

This transformative workshop is for anyone directly impacted by trauma as well as for those partners, friends, and family members vicariously affected.  

Circle of Hope Classes/Workshops are donation based & confidential classes that combine a supportive group experience with that of a more classical, trauma-informed yoga class.  In essence, the class is specifically designed to be sensitive towards and adress the needs of those who are experiencing or have ever experienced any form of trauma. 

The suggested donation is $15, but we encourage all individuals to pay what they can afford, be it less or more.  All of the proceeds collected from these classes go to support local not-for-profit agencies providing trauma recovery & related services.

With Mara Campbell 

Join Mara Campbell to embrace the longest night of the year. You will be treated to a contemplative restorative, yin yoga practice along with guided meditation, pranayama and intention setting. By taking the time to slow down on this auspicious evening, you will be encouraged to enter into your own quiet darkness, to nourish your own inner fire, and to move into a new season with gratitude. More cross-cultural celebrations are at this time of year than any other, so what better time to come together as a collective to celebrate the rebirth of light.

This workshop is designed for students with Scoliosis, which is defined as lateral curvature(s) of the spine. Yoga poses offer relief with the use of traction, props, and relaxation to alleviate pain and discomfort. The focus of this workshop is on lengthening the spine, de-rotation of the curve, and reducing compensatory patterns standing, sitting, and lying down.  Deepening the breath will be a major component during the session. We will assess your spine curvature and map your curve, then apply what we learned to classic yoga poses adjusted for your specific curve pattern.  

All levels are welcome, from newbie to teacher. 

Are you new to yoga, or have you been practicing but want to refresh your basic knowledge? Yogis of all levels are invited to join Laura Mills in this 3-Part Series designed to shed light onto many of the main components of the yoga practice.
