This 75 min session is a blend of yoga, mantra and sound.
Together Ruby and Jennifer will blend their beloved harmonic instruments (16 +bowls, 3 gongs and a collection of wind chimes) for a special event.
We will begin with “gentle yoga” which will bring awareness and connection to our physical form while gently releasing constricting habit patterns and unnecessary tension.
Next Ruby, on the harmonium, will guide us into the chanting of sacred mantras. (The word mantra can be broken down into two parts: “man” which means mind and “tra” which vehicle.) In other words, a mantra is an instrument of the mind that when chanted, directs the healing power of Prana (life force energy).
Finally… we will recline back into our favorite restorative pose to receive special sonic vibrations played simultaneously by both Ruby and Jennifer.

Did your brain, booty and body get away from you during this winter with the help of Covid restrictions?
The past two years have left many of us in a stagnant pattern. Neural integration (the wiring and the firing of the body) and fitness go hand-in-hand. The closer you are to peak physical conditioning, the nearer you will be to optimal neurological functioning.
This is a fancy way of saying…if your body is not looking its best, neither is your brain.
The confidence you have in your body directly correlates to your cognitive confidence…and vice versa.
This is why during the Covid lockdown, disconnect and imbalances made you susceptible to drama and distractions, and self care a challenge.
For this reason, proper core activated exercises will reinvigorate your thinking, brain function, and simulate your body for summertime. Numerous studies have shown that exercise not only improves cognitive functioning, but also productivity, performance, moods, sleep and decreases stress. What more could you ask for??
Join Michael and Maria’s as they teach you innovative and accessible exercises necessary to improve your understanding of proper movement and exercise, and its impact on learning and nervous system health.
Maria Aihara-Sasaki and Michael Luan are the creators of the BioFunctional Method™.
The BioFunctional Method™ is a unique blend of proper biomechanical movements, body language, posture, balance, strengthening and stretch fused to create inventive exercise system that nurtures tangible returns, deepening relationships, understanding and meaningful interactions with the body, health, and environment. BioFunctional Method is the maintenance developed in mastery to achieve confidence in the world.
Maria Aihara-Sasaki, MS, BS, PES, RYT-200 has a bachelor’s degree in Zoology, a Master’s in Entomology, and has been involved in scientific research at the University of Hawaii for over 25 years. Her education is in biological sciences and forensic science with a strong background in human anatomy, physiology, and movement. She has an extensive understanding of gait, locomotion, and conformation from training dogs, horses, as well as humans. Maria has background comes from yoga, running, weightlifting, hiking, meditation and CoreAlign working with clients.

Yin and Sound come together:
Thursday April 21 5:30-6:45pm
$25
Refresh your mind and body! Yin heart opening poses accompanying the healing instruments of the gongs, crystal quartz bowls, Tibetan bowls and chimes.
The body is "bathed" or "soaked" in the healing and relaxing frequencies, waves, and vibrations of sound while experiencing a series of heart opening yin yoga poses. Melt away tension in the body by slowing down the breath and softening into poses held for 3-5 minutes. Yin yoga is a meditative practice of reconnection and surrender with the body.
Some people are able to meditate deeply...others experience a deep quality of peace and presence. In the end, it is unlike any experience you might have had previously and you leave feeling relaxed and energetically cleansed.
Adjustments + essential oils included (if you choose).
