Let your Light Shine into the New Year! 

New Year’s Day Workshop with Susana Laborde-Blaj

Sunday, January 1, 2017

9:30-11:30am 

A mindful and consistent Yoga practice can bring more health to your body and more clarity to your mind. This translates to more kindness, patience, and happiness for you and people close to you, as well as more peace into the world.

Work on breath, strength, agility & flexibility as you move from distraction to attention in this mindful practice. Postures and physical exertion (asana) will prepare the breath for specific breathing exercises (pranayama), and all this will prepare the mind for Meditation.

Expect 75 minutes of a Mindful Flow linking breath and movement, a short presentation followed by 20 minutes of breathing exercises, a guided relaxation and a Meditation.

$30.00 per person(Limited Members save 10%, Unlimited Members save 15%)
*All other classes are cancelled today!

Susana Laborde-Blaj is one of the incredible teachers at Imagine Yoga Studio. Here is a bit more about her:

“I love the way yoga brings people together. With different names, stories, ages, we all come to a place where it is ok to be exactly who we are, where the beauty will be found not in looking like someone else, but in discovering the sometimes hidden, always precious messages of life itself.

I have been passionate about this for a while and love it so much that I cannot help myself from sharing everything I learn with the students that chance or destiny have brought to my classes and workshops.

To watch the way they practice fills me with admiration and humbles me, I learn from them –and my other teachers, of course courage, presence, humor, camaraderie, compassion, humility, perseverance, endurance, simplicity, acceptance, beauty, enthusiasm.

My work is to learn to see them beyond my own insecurities and limitations, and I am lucky enough to work on that every single day.” Susana Laborde-Blaj

Susana teaches:

Alignment Flow on Monday’s, Wednesday’s & Friday’s at 7am and Thursday’s at 4:15pm

Calm on Monday’s & Wednesday’s at 5pm

Flow on Wednesday’s at 9am
