Events for Kids, Teens, Families and Moms to be!Heartsong's drop in classes welcome Every-Body. We used to say students should be " Jr. High school age and above" but have found that there are younger students (elementary age) who are passionate about yoga, have the focus and ability to be still and quiet throughout a 75 minute class, and really want to do yoga with their parents.
We have come to realize the it is ok to have these younger students in class. We would be happy to encourage you to "tuck into the back" and see how it goes! The best candidates are younger folk who have dance, gymnastic, marital arts or other group/athletic practices who are used to being "students" and "paying attention." Taking Family Yoga also sets them up, as well as being a YogaKids student. If you are not sure, give us a call!
These Specialty Classes and Courses are offered to give the younger folk the chance to learn and to enjoy yoga on their own or with their families.
To Register for any of these classes or for more information please

To complete the registration process please send a check for the amount of the event to:

See you around the Yoga Shala! Sheila and Tony

Pre Natal Yoga ClassesNew Series starts Tomorrow
Saturday, April 10th
11 to 12:15, 6 week session, $80. w/ Jane Anable.
Jane's description of this class:
"In each class we start in a circle with each person having a chance to share a little with the group. We usually have 1st, 2nd and 3rd trimester gals! Then we have a short meditation, warm ups, then yoga postures (no experience necessary) that are geared towards strengthening and helping to create an easier child birthing experience. We complete with a really nice 15 min relaxation with pillows and blankets. It is a great way to connect with yourself, your baby and with other gals experiencing this awesome time in your lives."
Practicing yoga throughout pregnancy offers many benefits for a healthy pregnancy and healthy parenting. Yoga creates strength and flexibility, and develops steady focus and attention. While these classes are appropriate for all levels of pregnancy, please consult your doctor before beginning this practice.

40 Days to a Life Makeover! Pre Register NOW! |  | |
Brand New Program kicks off in May!
Heartsong Yoga is offering its first 40-day program based on Baron Baptiste's book 40 Days To Personal Revolution. The program is modified to be accessible to anybody at any stage of their yoga practice from very beginners to the very advanced.
The program asks you to commit to 40 consecutive days of yoga classes, any Heartsong class or level that works for you and your schedule. We have created a home practice DVD as well for those days you cannot get to the shala. You will also be incorporating guided daily meditation and self-discovery excavation exercises into your life. Each Tuesday night at 6 pm, we will meet to share our personal experiences with the program (we will be journaling our experiences every day) and discuss which issues we will be "bringing into awareness" during the coming week. Each week will include nutritional consultation and recipes for incorporating healthy eating into your every day life.
