02/21/08

Brrrr. As I write this, the morning is exceptionally brilliant and bitter yet I can feel springtime's presence softly pressing against the tireless cold. I can hear the spring song of the birds as the sun rises each morning a little earlier and I am reminded that warmer weather and newness is just around the corner.

This late winter/early spring we have carefully planned out yoga offerings so that they line up with our natural need for awakening our bodies after a winter's retreat. When I chose what to offer at the studio this season, I asked my own body what it needed and what it was calling for.

My body is calling for movement and new awakening. I feel the need to strengthen my yoga practice and increase my metabolism. I feel the need to move and sweat and inhabit my body from a place of support and strength. Check out our Yoga Boot Camp co-taught by Dawn and myself. We are looking forward to this two- week period of transformation. Another class that I am excited about offering for the first time at Samadhi Studio is Yoga and Weights taught by myself and Allie Capo-Burdick, a personal trainer and the owner of Vita Train 4 Life Fitness Center.

Maybe your body is calling for something slower. We are offering the Yin Yoga Series and Gentle Yoga Series as well.

I am confident that there is something here for everyone. Dedicate your spring to taking care of your body and your spirit. Spring is about coming fully awakened and blooming into your most healthful state, inside and out. Take some steps and do this today. Jump out of your box. Play. Laugh. Sweat. Stretch. Be Grateful. Live and Love.

Namaste,
Anne Falkowski
