Yogi G's Weekly Wisdom - Introduction

Spring Season is upon us. Yesterday and today temperatures reached 70 degrees at my home in Lynchburg, Virginia.  The weather is a signal of Spring beauty to come. Today I led a Yin-Yang Power Yoga practice with the theme of "Awakening with Spring".  The Yin flows included Surya Namaskara (Sun Salutation) with the slow, relaxing, deep stretches of a Yin Dragon Flow.  The Yang flows were energetically powerful Ashtanga Primary Series Sun Salutation A including jumps and squat flows.  As the dormancy (Yin) of Winter gives way to the energy (Yang) of Spring and Summer our spirits are awakened by the beauty of the Creation and the bounty we are given with the new season.

 I am so excited this year to be leading Yoga Workshops and Power Yoga Series at Carolina Power Yoga each month during 2014.  The first event is a 5 day Power Yoga Series, the week after Easter, April 21-25, 2014 with the theme "Celebrating the Energy of Spring".  Each 90 minute Yoga Practice from 9:30 til 11:00 AM will be filled with energetic flows to stimulate the body, focus the mind and awaken the heart.  This will be followed by a two day (90 minutes each day) Restorative Yoga Workshop over Memorial Day weekend, May 24-25, 2014.
