Learn how to sense the healing energy of chakras and nadis in and around your body so you can participate more fully in your own healing and awakening.

ENERGY YOGA is both a therapeutic and transformative style of yoga that teaches you how to manage your energy to heal and revitalize your body, mind, and emotions.

Benefits include: physical healing from injury and illness, enhanced health and vitality, greater emotional well-being, mental clarity and focus.

In this workshop Tara will present the basic theory of the meridians and organ health and have participants experience different kundalini style physical practices to stimulate, balance as well as cleanse, the organs of the body. Part of the class will be spent discussing the emotional element of the organs, as well as the time frames they are activated.

For experienced yoga practitioners (involves dynamic movement).

Registration: $35 per person until April 27th; $40 thereafter
