This weekend I snuck into my newly decorated Samadhi Yoga Studio, Storrs during the quietness of a snow storm. We were supposed to be holding our grand reopening celebration this past Saturday but made a heartbreaking last minute decision to postpone the event due to the 6 inches of newly fallen snow and give the Storrs Studio the celebration it truly deserves the following weekend. (We will cross our fingers that the weather will be on our side this Saturday.)
The party was cancelled but I still felt compelled to go to the Storrs Studio anyways and immerse myself in the space, to honor it in my own way. When I opened the door to this newly redecorated space and turned on the lights, I was completely amazed at the transformation that had taken place in just three short days. Heather, our Storrs Studio Manager, poured her heart and talent for making things beautiful into what had been a tired and weary space.
As I sat in the middle of the transformed studio space and breathed in its beauty, fresh colors and new life force, I was overcome with love and gratitude. My heart opened wide and I felt an outpouring of thankfulness to the exceptionally talented and graceful people in my life, like Heather, and I was honored to be part of the positive change and healing space that she had brought to life. I breathed in the aliveness of the newly potted plants, the thoughtful shoe racks, the much needed coat hooks, the mounted speakers, and the scent of pine from the Zen like altar. I basked in the overall simplicity of the space combined with caring details and I felt hopeful and renewed.
Body Connection
If we are lucky, at some point in our lives we find our way to the things that truly make us feel good or healthy from the inside out. And when we do we are bound to think "I can't believe I don't do this every day!" This revelation could come at the end of a yoga class or a walk outside, a satisfying nutritious meal or from a great workout. Whatever path leads us to a healthy body connection, this path is a much needed touchstone for quieting the mind, bringing vitality to our lives, and helping us to move forward in a supportive way and to thrive in everything we do.
Choice
Samadhi Yoga Studio is committed to assist you in reaching your dreams for sustainable lifestyle change. We know that a healthy lifestyle is a path with many twists and turns. We know and understand that compassion and a non-judgmental attitude is at the core of all positive change. We also believe that choice is important because each person's body and experience is unique. What truly nourishes and supports us to be as healthy as possible varies from person to person and may change at different times in a person's life.
Samadhi Yoga Studio's yoga classes and workshops are designed to support choice and renewal. So this spring, renew your body and renew your commitment to your own health. Consider starting your day off with our new Yoga Boot Camp . This is perfect for those of you wanting to revitalize and step up your current fitness routine. Develop the habit of yoga for two straight weeks and emerge from our yoga boot camp your most calm, healthy and vibrant self. You won't believe how good you can feel until you try it.
If morning yoga doesn't work in your schedule, consider recharging in a late afternoon yoga class before dinner. How about a heated evening power class designed to invigorate you and radiate health from the inside out? Consider a rocking Power Yoga Jam on Friday afternoons. A perfect time to unwind, soothe your soul and create deep states of physical and mental health.
And don't forget the weekends. We offer popular yoga classes Saturday and Sunday mornings. Some of our students have commented that their yoga mat is a place of spiritual connection. Sunday afternoons offer an opportunity to give back to your community as you practice Karma Yoga to enhance your local community and give monetary support to non-profit organizations that make our towns better places for everyone to live. Sunday evening yoga is a magical time to practice self reflective yoga as you mentally and physically retreat to prepare for the busyness of the week ahead.
Samadhi Staff
Our teaching staff is unique and dedicated to their craft and each teacher and staff knows firsthand the power of yoga to transform their own lives. Our staff is made up of people who are engaged in their own inquiry for physical, emotional, and spiritual health and want to enrich your experience at Samadhi Yoga Studio by making it as positive an experience as possible. It is our intention for our studio to feel like a safe haven for you to relax into just being yourself in a way that our everyday lives don't always allow.
Community
There is a unique spirit at Samadhi and it brings out the best in people. The Studios are made up of diverse people of all ages and life experiences. Whether you come alone or with a friend or family member, you will find what you need. The environment at Samadhi supports rich profound conversations and it also supports the need for solitude and privacy.
Come to Samadhi Yoga Studio and reconnect to who you really are and what you truly need to empower your health, wellness, creativity and personal growth.
With much love,
Anne Falkowski
Samadhi Yoga Studio Founder and Director
