Free event....all are welcome!

You are invited to join together to practice Qi Gong and sit in meditation on the morning of the solstice.
Astronomically Winter Solstice marks the beginning of the shortening of nights and the lengthening of days, so this is the longest night of the year!
Solstice derives from Latin sol (sun) and sistere (to stand still). It is a potent time for quietude and reflection as well as celebration, as we transition into Winter and the gradual return of light!
This is a great opportunity to take some "TIME OUT" in this busy holiday season to support each other in sitting with vitality!

Approximate schedule:

Please arrive at 8am to set up for sitting.
We will start with 10 minutes Qi Gong
Then we will chant the Heart Sutra
1st round of sitting 15-20 minutes
followed by 20 minutes Qi Gong
2nd round of sitting 15-20 minutes

Afterwards tea & treats will be served and there will be time to hang out together.

All are welcome.... Please bring a Zafu / meditation cushion (if you have one)
There are plenty of sticky mats & blankets at studio for padding under sitting cushions
Chairs are available there if you want to use one
I will have extras cushions there if you don't have one

Saturday, November 5th & Sunday, November 6th

Two morning intensive classes: 9:30am - 12noon

Relaxing the shoulders and opening the chest !

Let's move into the cooler weather and the holidays with ease!

Join me in a Somatic education approach to health and vitality.
Wake up your body-mind in a fun and functional way....... without overdoing it!


This workshop will include Feldenkrais,Yoga & Qi Gong.........
Saturday morning we will explore this theme with
Feldenkrais (Awareness through movement ) & Qi Gong

9:30am-12noon
We will learn to release holding patterns in our neck and shoulders with gentle and playful movements. Building on this theme we will also explore movement to help us to relax and open our chest. These movement explorations will improve posture and increase mobility in the neck, shoulders and upper back. This helps us to reduce overall body tension and breath more deeply. Deep relaxation and breathing nourish and calm our whole nervous system and are a perfect antidote to the busy holiday season and cold weather!

This session is open to everyone and appropriate for those with pain or injury.

Sunday morning November 6th: Yoga (all levels)
9:30am-12noon
Through Yoga postures we will investigate the same focus of releasing shoulder tension to improving flexibility and alignment in the neck, spine and shoulder girdle. This will include spinal elongation, twists and gentle back-bends.
We will also incorporate yogic breathing exercises to increase awareness, relaxation and reduce stress.
This is a great opportunity to refine and deepen your Yoga practice.

This session is open to students with varied levels of Yoga experience.

You can join in for one or both sessions.

1423 NW 70th St.

This event is free and open to everyone !

---

You are invited to join us in coming together to sit, to welcome the upcoming longest night of the year!
Astronomically Winter Solstice marks the beginning of the shortening of nights and the lengthening of days.
Solstice derives from Latin sol (sun) and sistere (to stand still). It is a potent time for quietude and reflection as well as celebration, as we transition into Winter and the gradual return of light! The solstice is on December 21st, so we will be meeting a couple days before the actual date. Everyone is welcome, and no previous experience in Meditation or Qi Gong is necessary.

This is a great opportunity to take some "TIME OUT" in this busy holiday season to support each other in sitting with vitality!

Please arrive by 6:00pm to set up for sitting.
We will start with chanting the Heart Sutra at 6:15
1st round of sitting meditation 20 minutes
followed by 20 minutes Qi Gong practice
and then 2nd round of sitting meditation 20 minutes

Afterwards, sparkling juice, tea & treats will be served and there will be time to hang out together.
Please feel free to bring treats to share if you are inspired, however it is not necessary.

Many THANKS to Jean of Soma Yoga for generously donating the space for this special event!

Please bring your sitting cushion if you have one.
Otherwise cushions and chairs are available there.

This is also a great chance to check out the new space before I start my classes there in the new year!
Reply to let me know if you are planning to attend, so I will have an approximate head count.
Please feel free to e-mail or call if you have any questions 206 - 706-0069.

Special Focus Yoga Classes, Fall 2010

Special Focus Yoga Classes (All levels)

Saturdays 10:00 am – 12:00 pm

In these special focus yoga classes, Treya incorporates her extensive background as a somatic educator with her many years of practicing and teaching yoga and meditation. These classes combine the intelligence of effective skeletal alignment with the subtle energetics of deep body awareness. Fun and informative, they are appropriate for students of all levels of experience.

November 20, 2010 Finding Balance and Stability – Warrior and Balance Poses

Stability, or rooting through the legs, and balance go hand in hand. To find balance without effort, we must understand how to open our hips and use our legs to connect to the earth, allowing the torso and spine to release upward and be free. In this class we will juxtapose warrior poses with balance poses to explore the relationship between earth and sky, and rooting and expanding.

December 4, 2010 Letting Go… Into Forward Bending

Forward bending is about deeply folding in the hips. It is a practice of letting go and allowing the entire back and spine to open and lengthen. This also includes releasing from the spine through the back of the legs and into the arms. It is a total body release. Through breath and awareness, we are invited to go more deeply into our internal environment: softening the muscles, opening the joints, and quieting the mind. This asana relaxes the back, supports kidney function, and opens the hips. It is soothing, calming, and revitalizing. A great preparation as we move into the busy holiday season.

Drop-in rate: $45 per class
