"The practice of yoga fills up the reservoirs of hope and optimism within you.  It helps you overcome all obstacles on the path to perfect health and spiritual contentment.  It is rebirth.


- BKSIyengar

 Djembe African Drumming Meditation Program

Friday Oct 15th,   7:30-8:45 p.m.  $20                               


It’s been recently discovered that elephants communicate at frequencies lower than human ears can detect and it’s common knowledge that dogs smell things humans can’t even imagine. The rhythms and vibrations of Taylor’s  djembe drumming expand our limited perception of time and space, transport us on a journey to places we barely remember, and return us transformed.  His djembe drumming meditation is transcendent.

GONG BATH SOUND HEALING -  Fridays Sept  10th & 24th  7:30-8 :45pm  $10
The healing sounds of the gong return on the 2nd and 4th Fridays of the month!  We will do some light movement and breath work prior to the deeply relaxing and healing gong bath.  Don't worry there is no water involved, you actually get bathed in the sound only. The glorious thing is that the Infinite sound heals without you having to do a thing! 


Looking forward to seeing you then! 


"The gong is the first and last instrument for the human mind. There is only one thing that can supersede and command the human mind - the sound of the Gong. It is the first sound of the universe. It is the basic creative sound. To the mind, the sound of the gong is like a mother and father that gave it birth. The mind has no power to resist a gong that is well played." By Yogi Bhajan
