Class
Integral Yoga Flow Online

Jyothi Kimberley Schick, RYT-500
Integral Yoga Flow classes synchronize breath with movement through postures as a flow. In these classes there are logical sequences of breath-synchronized movements that transition between sustained poses or relaxation postures. Because of the quicker pace of a flow class, instructions are minimal during the actual flow, yet can be more detailed during other times. These classes are ideal for those with some experience in yoga, but all those with an interest in flowing in and out of poses are welcome.

Workshop
Yoga Therapy Tools for Processing Sadness and Anger

Antonio Sausys
$58 | $49 Early bird, use promo code TOOLS, exp. 5/3/25.
Our feelings inform us of how we experience our lives, how we relate to others and ultimately, who we are. In turn, they influence our decision-making process determining how we behave. But what happens when a feeling ceases to be an informant and becomes a slave driver leading the way? Then we are ushered into dysfunction, trapped in an emotional hamster’s wheel.
Participants will learn:
• General Information about Sadness and Anger
• 4 Simple Steps for processing feelings
• Simple yoga exercises that address symptoms and help processing sadness and anger for personal growth
• Helpful techniques, thoughtful insights, and useful tips for staying functional in life!
