Buddha said, "If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly, our whole life would change."  We hope that you leave time in your busy summer schedule to notice the miracles that surround us every day. Practicing yoga is a wonderful means for cultivating this attentiveness. Our Summer Schedule is now in effect; we encourage you to take this opportunity expand your practice by trying new teachers and classes.  In addition, we are pleased to announce that we will be holding a meeting for prospective Teacher Training participants in two weeks--see below for details.   Thank you for your support from all of us at Yogalife!

Upcoming Workshops 

THIS Saturday: Balance and Inversions on Saturday, June 7th with Michael
Most people find inverted balances to be the most challenging of yoga asanas. Join Michael in a light-hearted, step-by-step exploration of gravity, standing balance, and easy techniques for getting and staying inverted. This workshop is appropriate for all levels. Every asana will be prepped sequentially, leading up to the actual balance and inversion asanas, so there will be something for everyone.

Michael's guarantee: If you can hold a headstand, forearm stand or handstand at the wall for ten seconds, you will be able to hold the same pose free-standing for three seconds by the end of this workshop. 

CANCELLED: Jampamala Workshop on Saturday, June 7th with Laura, Julia and Samantha
We will be offering this workshop again in the fall; check back soon for specific dates.

Special Evening Workshop: 108 Sun Salutations on the Summer Solstice, Friday June 20th with Jenniferlyn
The sun is the illuminator of our world and the giver of life.  With 108 sun salutations, a complete mala, we will honor the sun and the summer season that it signifies. It is often said that this classical salutation to the sun, or Surya Namaskar, contains the whole practice within it. Sun salutations develop strength and endurance, and can be a powerful tool for meditation and self-transformation. Come cultivate positive energy to bring in the new season with this unique workshop.   

NEW Workshop: Yoga for Kids on Saturday, June 28th and Saturday, August 9th with guest teachers Kim and Nelda
As strong as a lion, as stable as a tree, as graceful as a lotus blossom, as proud as a peacock.... come explore the world through yoga! This fun workshop weaves yoga poses together with active story-telling, music, breathing games and relaxation to engage young bodies and minds. This workshop is appropriate for kids ages 5-8.
