This workshop will begin with a flow class to open the body and will include peak poses for stabilizing each Chakra working from Muladhara up to the Crown. After we have opened the body making it easier to find a meditative seat, April will lead you through a Chakra balancing meditation using yantras and Bija mantras. Following the meditation will be grounding techniques including corresponding mantras and mudras to help you to bring the energy and benefits from this class into your every day living.

Sukha means “happiness” and “ease.” Sukhasana means“easy seat.” During this workshop we will learn techniques that will help us find ease and joy the physical practice, in the meditation practice, and also in our everyday life – on and off the mat.
Join April Puciata for a very special two-hour asana class with a meditation to follow.
Challenge yourself with vinyasas, inversions and arm balances or nurture yourself with restorative poses and forward bends. This class will accommodate all levels and moods!
Before the meditation, we will find our own perfect individual Sukhasana or easy seat so you can sit comfortably. April will then lead you through a guided meditation.

As we flow and transition through the poses, different variations and modifications will be given to allow for everyone to find balance in their practice, opening in the hips and happiness on the mat.
Sometimes the biggest obstacle in arm balancing is the struggle we add to them. In this workshop we will try to let that go and enjoy the feeling of being strong and light at the same time. We will find the connection to the earth with our hands and we will also work on connecting to our core power in order to get our feet off the ground.
Arm balances build strength, courage, and playfulness; they help ground you in a brand new way. They give us a feeling of control over our bodies and at the same time allow us to surprise ourselves.We will explore poses such as Bakasana, Parsva Bakasana, Pincha Mayurasana and more with strong foundations, inner strength and open minds.
No matter where you are in your practice we will work toward safely getting into and out of the poses and getting your feet off the ground with grace.
