New Central Yoga Hour* Class

Join me at Yoga Oasis Central on Wednesday nights at 7:15 for Yoga Hour*.  The asterisk means you will be treated to one of 10 set sequences that are guaranteed to challenge and develop your practice.  Each sequence is well-rounded and many have poses that are not often found in regular yoga classes. It gives me the opportunity to explore growing my teaching skills by taking my mind off creating a sequence , and thus allowing me to help you connect to the poses in various ways. Com e have some fun!

New Years’ Eve with Jaimie and Tanya

Have you ever woken up on New Year’s Day with a hangover and wondered “What would it be like if I had started the year differently?”

5 years ago, I thought the same thing, and decided that I wanted to begin my new year doing my favorite thing: yoga.

Come spend New Year’s Eve with Jaimie Perkunas and Tanya Witman, for a yoga experience including intention-setting, asana (yoga postures and practice), journaling, mantra, and more.  This event is non-alcoholic, purposeful, and uplifting.

Bring some paper, a writing implement, an open mind, and wear comfortable clothes.

This will be your most intentional New Year’s ever.

 

Location:

Yoga Oasis – Central

Yoga and Alexander Technique – Deconstructing Vinyasa

Come join Tanya Witman and Rochelle Reea for a fun, unique and informative workshop combining Alexander Technique and alignment-based yoga on September 28th from 11am to 2pm at Ignite Fitness in Tucson.

Alexander Technique focuses on identifying and correcting habits that we have developed over the years that prohibit our bodies from moving freely and painlessly.  Per Joan Arnold, a practitioner and author in New York, “The Alexander Technique is a way of learning to move mindfully through life. The Alexander process shines a light on inefficient habits of movement and patterns of accumulated tension, which interferes with our innate ability to move easily and according to how we are designed. It’s a simple yet powerful approach that offers the opportunity to take charge of one’s own learning and healing process, because it’s not a series of passive treatments but an active exploration that changes the way one thinks and responds in activity. It produces a skill set that can be applied in every situation. Lessons leave one feeling lighter, freer, and more grounded.”

In the first half of the workshop, Rochelle will introduce you to the Technique, and for the second part we will use what we learned as well as yoga cues to help deconstruct the foundational Sun Salutation.  You will leave the workshop clear on how to move through this flow of poses safely, with strength and awareness.

Magnet for Magnificence!

If you love yoga and want to deepen your practice and embrace change in your life, this workshop is for you!  Coming up in June, Amy Ippoliti, Darren Rhodes and Christina Sell will be leading a 5-day workshop “…designed specifically for serious students and teachers to evolve together. This will be a time to retreat, reflect, and connect and stay magnetized to what matters most to us as life twist and turns unexpectedly. Our magnificence is not some grandiose consideration but is instead the extra-ordinary means through we which we live the truth of our hearts on a daily basis.”

This year the intensive is from June 13th -17th at Yoga Oasis on Campbell in Tucson.

I did this workshop last year and it really helped me move forward into making changes in my life that were a long time coming, and so welcome.  You won’t regret it.
