Fall News & Announcements

The photo gallery is up! My glorious friend and photographer extraordinaire, Tammy Mellert, www.tjreflections.com, has taken pictures of the teacher training group: That’s Me, Gina Schatz and Awaken Yoga School's first soon-to-be grads, Jeanette and Liza! Please take a look at our gallery and at the amazing yogi's who fill it.

I have a few new classes on the schedule as well for September, please check out the Schedule! There are now 2 new beginner’s classes, 1 intermediate Vinyasa class that is from Shiva Rea’s influence and trainings I have done with her this year which is two hours and will leave you intermediate students craving more!

The other class announcements for my other creative happenings: Tarot Classes start up this Fall on September 16th at Enchanted Grove in Downtown Willoughby, and my wedding flower website, Natural Wedding Designs, has many new additions to its photo gallery as well, so take a peak and pass it along to any brides you may know!

Coming Soon!...

This fall I will be inviting you to my own space! Soon to be in the Downtown Warehouse district for private Yoga and Yoga Therapy sessions, Private Relaxation, Meditation Lessons and more! Pictures, details and rates soon to come!

Also, I will be opening up the teacher training to those who may want to just come for a day or two, so I will put the training schedule up soon along with rates to stop in for a weekend or day with us!

Yoga Tip

by Jennifer Kovalchik
Take advantage of the Fall Equinox this month on the 22nd. This is a great time to cleanse and detox. Get yourself on a wellness plan, and prepare your body, your temple, for the upcoming winter. Find Ananda, or utter joy within! Taste your Rasa, your essence within. I highly recommend Colon Hydrotherapy in your cleanse as well as eating a clean diet of mostly fruits and veggies to free yourself of Ama, which is toxicity in Ayurveda. If you need a place to start, check out my Links Page for people to go or send me an email. See my blurb in Women's World Magazine from August from the Oprah Diet I tried!

Recommended Practitioner of the Month

Pat Holcomb of A Balancing Touch for massage, reflexology and more! I love Pat, she works on me frequently and I am so glad to have found her! www.abalancingtouch.com
