NEW OFFERING! Beginning soon!Dance your Flow: Yoga with live drum (Sherry Gingras)
6 week series
Thursday from noon-1pm
Immerse yourself in the joys of an all level hatha flow while surrounded by the pulse and call of a living, vital soundscape. Let the rhythm of the drum soothe mental chatter and call you home.
Kripalu is a model of open and non-evaluative movement, which honors each person’s instinct as a means of connecting to one’s highest and deepest wisdom. While class will offer a gentle to moderate series of postures to stretch, strengthen and balance the body, each student is always encouraged to look inward to determine his or her own level of engagement. In this way, each session becomes an empowering, life-affirming meditation in motion. We end with a deep relaxation.

Once in a blue moon I get what I perceive to be a really great idea out of the "blue" ( as it were!) and I act on it pronto! This is one of those!Since this rare happening ( two full moons in ONE month) is occuring on August 31st, it seemed like the thing to do in honor of Earth and her amazing and miraculous events, this being just one of SO MANY! So this evening will be A Ritual/Celebration in honor of Mother Earth and a Drum Circle at the same time! Please come if you can and bring assorted rhythm instruments and drums ( some will be provided, though we can't use DRUMZ merchandise for this circle ,which will be out front in the parking lot next to Kerbey Lane Cafe's front yard!). We will have some chairs but please bring your own if you have them as we may not have enough!
Hoping to see many of you there As we collectively give gratitude to Mother Earth for this amazing and rare event and for all her awesome and life sustaining gifts to us!
