Pilates:

Concentration. Control. Center. Precision. Breath. Flow. These are the six principles of Pilates as created by Joseph Pilates that enables every individual to connect to their body and movement efficiently. With a focus on moving the spine in all its directions and strength through the primary and secondary powerhouses, you gain access to your full facility and the ability to enhance and or sustain its strength and mobility. Different schools may focus on different orders and teaching styles but the foundation of Pilates runs the same. Be strong and live life enjoying the body you inhabit as you inhabit it fully. Your key is in the way you move. Power to you.

Yoga

Union. A way back to yourself. There are many layers of Yoga, and you can choose which layer you would like to work at or on. Aligning the physical body gives access to aligning our internal realm. Working through asana (poses) sometimes held and other times fluidly moving through you create freedom, and space for breath to flow and the body to find ease in strength. A gateway is created to align further if you wish, the ability to go into sense withdrawal (Pratyahara). Your Yoga practice guides you to find the ability to sit for your meditations with comfort. Wherever you are, Yoga gives the ability to gain physical, mental, and emotional strength and unite these to create the ultimate union: individual and universal spirit. You hold your own key to your happiness, fulfillment and harmony, just as true you need the tools to keep that key to continuously unlock the door to your true self. Namaste.

Meditation

There are so many ways to meditate. It is important especially at this time of busy living to take a moment and just sit and be. Here there will be an offering of meditations of different lengths to suit your needs and goals from simple breathing, mindfulness, to kriya (purification) techniques to help establish a connection to universal wisdom. You pick when, you pick how long, you pick your key. Unlock your barriers, quiet your mind, and choose to make stillness a priority. Live inspired. Shanti Shanti Shanthi (Peace with your self, Peace with others, and Peace with the universal forces).
