free class for beginners at the yoga loft tomorrow, meditation/philosophy class sundays

hello,

just a reminder that there is no yoga class at the caretakers house tomorrow night, but i encourage you to go to the yoga loft instead for a free class w/ carlin. the class is intended for total beginners, so if that's not you, just bring a friend who's a beginner! details are below.

also, i'll be heading to portland on friday morning so will not be teaching restorative yoga class that day... there will be a sub if you'd like to still attend and get a great dose of deep relaxation.

the regular schedule (tuesday night at the caretakers house, friday restorative at the yoga loft) will resume next week.

lastly, i wanted to let you all know about a great class i've been going to on sundays w/ Ravi at the Yoga Loft. the class is ameditation and philosophy discussion class. the discussion revolves around a randomly selected chapter in the book "I Am That" but tends to take on a direction of its own. I haven't had the book ever and always find the discussions to be totally relevant. (I plan to get the book this week!) We usually meditate for 10-20 minutes at the end. If you like yoga philosophy and are interested in meditation, this may be the class for you. It is every Sunday from 5-6:30. Let me know if you want more info... It's a very small class right now (3-5 people), so I'm trying to spread the word!

here are the details for tomorrow, friday restorative, and tuesday caretakers.

weekend workshop w/ Bhavani Maki at the Yoga Loft, plus regular class reminders

hi everyone,

i'm writing w/ a few yoga reminders & updates. i hope you all are well and are enjoying the summer.

item 1: there are two regular weekly classes i'm teaching now... please come if these classes fit into your schedule. caretakers house yoga on tuesdays, as usual, and restorative yoga on fridays at the yoga loft. info is below.

item 2: there is a great workshop happening this weekend at the Yoga Loft w/ international teacher Bhavani Maki. she'll be teaching about the Yoga Sutras (underlying philosophy of yoga) and more. the description is copied below... you can go for one day or the whole weekend. if you're interested but can't pay the full price, let me know, as I believe they are offering the workshop at cost (that's as big of a discount as is possible) for those who request it.

item 3: there is another free yoga class for beginners happening at the yoga loft on tuesday september 1st, so i will skip teaching at the caretakers house that week and hope that some of you will try the class at the loft.

Sharing her love of yoga, she inspires students to explore their full potential through yoga in a light hearted and compassionate way.

hello everyone,

just wanted to let you know i'm back in town, missed you all, and am teaching a bunch of times this week! come by if you can. here's the schedule:

sunday (today) from 5-6:30 at the yoga loft. community hatha yoga class, donation based. $5-15 suggested. all proceeds benefit the yoga loft, going towards renovations and the sound dampening project in studio B. http://theloftsf.com 321 divisadero st. @ page st. this is part of the "teachers-in-training" series, so the students from this year's teacher training program take turns teaching, and this is my week to teach. this will be the last week of this series, but we hope to start another one soon (probably a different day and time).

tuesday at the caretakers house. same time same place. 848 divisadero st. at mccallister. class is from 6:15-7:45. please arrive by 6:10 to set up. class is free, but if you'd like to donate, $ will go towards the purchasing of props, or building of simple shelves to store the props! http://caretakers-sf.org let me know if you have requests!

friday at the yoga loft: 2 classes!

restorative from 11-12:30 (this is a regular priced class, so $17 drop-in or 3 classes for $35 if you're new to the loft. $14 drop-in if you're a student.) - i'll be teaching this every week from now on... so if you have daytimes free, you can try it out. relax, renew, restore is our motto. :)

& vinyasa-flow from 5-6:30pm ($10 community class) - i'm subbing for someone this week.

hope to see you there!

as a reminder, there is a teacher training / advanced studies program happening at the yoga loft for 6 months, on saturdays and some sundays the first couple of months, starting in september. let me know if you'd like more info, or go to http://theloftsf.com there will be an open house info session sometime this month... this is the program i took last year, and i highly recommend it if you're interested in pursuing yoga teaching or going further in your yogic studies. (there is also the option of taking workshops on a drop-in basis.)

ommmm shanti
