THANK YOU for notiflyng me a day ahead if you are not coming if you can.  SCROLL DOWN and read further information on my ALL LEVEL Kripalu Yoga Classes.

Thank you for reading the full entry below/June Schedule

TAKE NOTE : FIRST TUESDAY MORNING CLASS IS AT 9:00 IN JUNE, I TYPED 9:30. SEE BELOW. 

NEW SCHEDULE BEGINS JUNE 1ST @ THE CLEARING

TUESDAY MORNINGS  9:30 - 10:00 and 10:30 - 11:00 All Levels

THURSDAY AFTERNOONS  3:30 - 4:30 and 5:00 - 6:00 All Levels

IMPORTANT NEW INFO :

All Level classes include centering, warming, breathwork, poses. The small studio allows me to guide entry - advanced levels of ability and to ensure safety, comfort, challenge, depth and fun! Thank you for being fully vaccinated and for being mindful of attending class earlier if you are a townie or coming later if you live in the woods. 5:00 Thurs. can help accomodate those attending Zen at 6:15 or are coming after work.

COST & SCHEDULING:  Classes will cont to be $10 DONATION based. NEW REQUEST:  that you pre-pay (if possible) month by month if you are a "regular." Example : calculate how many times you will  be coming, you know your schedule. If its once a week throw in $40. If its twice do the same or add more mid month. YOU keep track. And If you don't use it are you willing to loose it?  Why? I am committed to teaching Not for Profit & at low cost. But a full class is 8 people (still spaced 6 ft) & when there are multiple last minute cancellations I & ultimately TNHC (our generous host) takes a hit. If you have outside issues that come up, esp regarding health, carry any pre-pay over.  NOTE: TO SECURE YOUR SPOT YOU NEED TO NOTIFY ME A DAY IN ADVANCE OR HAVE ME SCHEDULE YOU AHEAD ON MONTHLY STUDIO CALENDAR. I will do my best to notify you in advance if something comes up with me. Text messaging works best. 

PROPS : I hope to have a half a dozen new blocks in the studio soon & will be using them in some asana. There are blankets, mats, and some straps available.  

MUSIC & CHANTING :  Ancient Sanskrit was sung & changes brain chemistry. I use it & am highly aware of its sacred Indian origin. I also use recorded drum, flute, and bowl tones. 

GUEST TEACHING : I've done some locally and now that the world has opened up I hope to do some in Mpls. Sometimes I wonder " are yo too dang old?" The answer is YES for teaching/doing complicated arm balancing poses, also my Bird of Paradise flew away. But NO for sharing the magic of Kripalu Moving Meditation. Side Note:  i will be returning to the Mother Ship this fall with Sudha Lundeen & assisting her with a program. I'll keep you posted over the summer on any Retreats and if we are able to make a pit stop on the way to Mass to teach.  

* I HAVE A WISH LIST FOR SUMMER SPECIALTY THINGS:           VIGOROUS CLASS FOR YOGIS? A MENS CLASS WITH MY TEACHER TRAINED FRIEND ( A MAN) ? YOGA DANCE WITH DRUMMING ? MEDITATION & YOGA W A COLLEAGUE ?  YOGA & ART? Summer is busy but watch for any of the above.
