“When we forget what we should be, we find what we are.”

~ Daniel Levin

Namaste

Thank you to all of you who attended our open house and anniversary celebration!  We had many new faces joining our regular students and we were truly honored by everyone’s presence.  We look forward to continuing to grow our yoga community and inspire others to learn about yoga.  Our fall schedule brings even more classes to the schedule and a new instructor to the studio.

As mother nature transitions into the fall season we can reflect upon our own transitions in life. Without hesitation the leaves on trees turn colors, the wind becomes more brisk, and the sun begins to set earlier in the day.  Let us be reminded that we too can transition in life by letting go of our attachments to how we think things should be and finding the beauty in how things already are.

With blessings,

We look forward to seeing you at Seaside Yoga Sanctuary!

Testimonials

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

“Yoga is fantastic. I started with Laura’s beginner series, and actually took it 3 times before trying another class. That was about 4 months ago and I’m in better shape now than at any point in my life. Years of going to a gym couldn’t make me as fit as just a couple months of yoga. On top of that, I feel more relaxed and noticed I’m more comfortable standing and walking because my posture has improved. I will never go back to running on a treadmill and lifting weights; there’s a much better way.~Paul


“I have been coming to the Seaside Yoga Sanctuary for about a year. I’ve studied yoga occasionally over the years, but I’ve been impressed by the way the Sanctuary offers so many ways to incorporate practice into my daily life. I’ve taken yoga classes that have challenged me personally; pre-natal yoga classes that allowed me to continue my practice throughout my pregnancy in a safe, informative, and supportive environment; and Mommy & Me classes with my 5 year old that gave me the opportunity to introduce my daughter to yoga in a fun way that was appropriate for her age. I’ve found all the instructors to be knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The Sanctuary has been a great way to stay with my practice throughout all the changes I’ve been experiencing. ~ Toni Gibbs”

“It’s a beautiful studio with great instructors who approach yoga with a holistic philosophy, reminding me that in yoga, balance, strength and flexibility are about more than just the postures.” –PW”
