We will use Murda in our Meditation to charge our minds and bodies to cast away doubt, move from the Impossible thinking to the Possible! Wrapping up our very special one-time gathering with Deep Relaxation. Settle in, let the Himalayan Bowls, Bells, Chimes, Gongs, and surprise accompaniments, guide you into deep Yoga Nidra rest.

Saturday December 7th, 3pm-5pm
A Yoga/Thai Chi Fusion Demo Class
Come join Mike Graney and friends in this fluid and dynamic practice that fuses movement, postures and philosophies of tai chi, qi gong and yoga.
Tai chi and yoga asana have much in common and much to benefit one another through their distinct differences. Where yoga often emphasises static holding and specific engagements and alignments tai chi offers a looser and more fluid approach that allows energy to flow through the body with less resistance. This class will introduce you to qi gong and tai chi in a way that integrates naturally with familiar yoga asana.
Mike lived in the area from 1986-1998 and has been in and out of the region ever since. He began studying yoga and martial arts at the same time in 1981 and has pursued the practices in different schools ever since. The best teacher is of course Nature and the lessons learned from River and Earth figured prominently in all his practices. He has lived in New Zealand for most of the last 15 years.

Mark your calendars for a four class yoga series with live music improvised by Ross Malcolm Boyd, a full-time traveler hailing from New Hampshire, at The High Frequency Loft.
Ross Malcolm Boyd is a composer, musician and educator currently touring the country with his wife, Jamie Feinberg. Although much of his music falls under the quirky alternative rock heading, he also explores improvisation and collaboration with other artists and art forms.
Of his work, Ruth Schaulkhauser Tower of PYT says “Ross creates luxurious sounds that invite organic movement and sooth and caress your inner being. When he played a sample of his music I could have listened to it for hours! As he travels all over you won’t want to miss the opportunity to practice yoga while he’s here.”
He's excited to bring some of his atmospheric, electronic music to this yoga class after collaborating with yoga instructors from Colorado and New Mexico to New Hampshire this past year.
Ross will have his new album, Clouds, perfect for yoga and meditation, available for purchase at the studio ($12)! (Those who attend all four classes will receive it for free.)

WHAT TO EXPECT:
Restorative Yoga and Deep Listening is a weekend long program that draws upon subtle energy awareness and experience to bring each student into new layers of understanding. Using asana, pranayama, meditation, visualization, ecology, and art the practitioner/student can construct an individual recovery processes that speak directly to their needs. This training will encourage each student to guide and be guided in a restorative fashion. Throughout the weekend students will explore physical and energetic methods; using linguistics and presence to set the tone. Hands-on & hands-off adjustments, sequencing for affects, traditional & modern adaptations, lecture & discussion, and art & nature moments will be called into focus, giving the students a secure, but varied foundation to teach and/or deepen their personal practice.
**This training is recognized by Yoga Alliance and is eligible for Continuing Education Credits (CEUs) - 20 contact hours + 12 non-contact hours = 32 hours in total.
This training is designed for new and experienced yoga instructors, as well as students who have a sincere interest in deepening their understanding behind the mechanics of restorative yoga. This training also lends itself to health care professionals (nurses/doctors), personal trainers, physical therapists, care-takers, body-workers, and/or counselors/coaches.
Gracie is a mid-west based yoga instructor who believes in the evolution of the human practice. Her teaching blends together elements from ecology, dance, and ceramics; using an interdisciplinary approach to connect with students and colleagues. Her attention to energetic detail is a defining quality in her work and instruction.
Most of Gracie's classes are slow paced allowing the student to organize their brain, body, and breath inside each posture. With special focus on the breath, Gracie encourages each practitioner to converse with the circuitry of their structures, body and environment.
Gracie received her RYT-200 from Marianne Well’s Yoga School in Costa Rica in 2011 and her Restorative Yoga certification from Leeann Carey in 2013. Gracie has enjoyed studying with Erica Jago & Elena Brower of Art of Attention and Nevine Michaan of Katonah Yoga. Having the privilege to further her teaching experience through various studios, as well as holding retreats in Mexico, Gracie is an E-RYT 200 and a Yoga Alliance Continuing Education Provider (YACEP) as recognized by Yoga Alliance.
Graciela’s knowledge of yoga and restorative yoga in particular is thorough, intuitive and compassionate. She conveyed the essence as well as the particulars beautifully during our training. Her choice of assignments, the materials provided, and the composition of the three days’ training gave me a solid foundation for my own restorative practice, and the inspiration to share it with other Yogis in the future.
-A. Poston, September 2017
If we have good fortune, we meet teachers who embody their craft. If we are blessed we know one or two who impart through their passions and their actions, their skills. Graciela passes on a legacy of listening deeply to self, other, and the connection which is the Self. Layer by layer, breath by breath Gracie embraces each student’s capacity to Restore Self. A five star course.
-Kirt, J. Baab, LMSW, ERYT-200, March 2018
Gracie’s restorative yoga: deep listening training was one of the highlights of my year. It felt like a yoga retreat, was my favorite workshop/training I’ve ever attended, and by the culmination I felt more connected to everyone there and to myself. What a gift!

What is trauma informed yoga? Well, honestly almost all hatha yoga is trauma informed. It is the awareness that our body holds onto the tension and memories from past events. Through reworking the pattern of breathing, and releasing tension sometimes the past trauma is also able to release.
When we take the body out of patterns of flight or fight behavior something else happens. The executive functions of the brain become more available. These are the ability to look ahead, and see consequences of your actions, and make more rational decisions; the ability to remain in equilibrium while facing difficult, potentially triggering scenarios.
What do we do? Through breath work practices, literally changing your patterns of breathing, stretching in specific shapes, and playfully changing old patterns of movement; we are able to break old patterns of thought and behavior. Many people experience deep relaxation and release from tension.
How effective is it? It is different for every person, how open are you to change?
I am offering this as a donation class. Come and try it, and decide if you want to pay after, and only pay what you can comfortably afford. This class will be adapted to who shows up; the level will vary depending on the participants. However, there is always opportunity for challenges for even the most experienced yogi. Further, this is an opportunity for teachers to learn a potentially new style.
Come, play, breathe, and learn to release.
Nita Maddux Bio:
Educational/ Certification Background: I have a degree in Fine Arts/ Dance from Boston University from 1990; I returned to school and received a degree in Physics from University of Montana in 2009. I am a certified RYS 200 Iyengar instructor. I took my yoga training at Maui Yoga Shala. I further took a training in Ubud, Bali at Frog Lotus School in recovery yoga, also RYS 200 certified. I received both certifications in 2013. I have taken trainings from Elena Brower in Yoga Nidra, and from Deepak Chopra in embodied yoga. I have done two trainings with Desiree Rumbaugh.
Personal yogic philosophy:
I enjoy teaching to students at all levels. I am focused on teaching alignment, and taking the time to clearly describe the alignment elements in challenging postures. I think that intelligent sequencing of postures is essential for allowing the practitioner to develop strength, spacial understanding, and to explore the emotional process triggered through a regular practice. I believe a regular yoga practice deepens our relationship to our physical, and subtle body. It therefore, allows the individual to awaken their own healing processes at the deepest level. I welcome the challenge, and love to research how to work with people with injuries or health challenges. Often those who think yoga is not for them, are the exact people who ought to practice. I believe in creating joyful, creative, intelligent flows. I believe each practice should be fun, engaging, and an intelligent conversation with your body. I am committed to taking my yoga off the mat, and offering donation or free classes. Further, I like to teach to senior groups, children’s groups, and would like to do further work with the criminal justice system. Yoga to me is an important service, and a great way to build community.

Message from Kelly:
I would love for join me for the next women's moon circle. We will gather together to open our hearts and hold space for one another. The evening will start out with a crystal bowl sound healing to help us ground deeper into the earth, moving through to the Shamanic journey where the drum will stimulate the brain to help synthesize natural beta-endorphins, which facilitate you to move into what is known as the 'second attention', an altered state of awareness, or shamanic state of consciousness. This state of awareness facilitates the Shamanic Journey. The constant drumming will be used for the purpose of inducing a range of ecstatic trance states in order to connect with the spiritual dimension of reality. I invite you to share your journey before we move on to setting our intentions with the energy of the new moon still high. Closing our circle with sharing if you feel called.
Step out of your shadow and step into the circle of women that will help you see your beauty and divine light. We are all here for one another. To share, to open ourselves to our deepest self, and to reflect and to listen to one another as we embark on this beautiful journey.
If you have never done a shamanic journey I will discuss with you before we start on what exactly that is.
Please bring a journal.
Dress in whatever you feel the most comfortable. Please limit your use of perfumes or sprays to respect any allergies that some may be experiencing.
Blessings to you dear sisters. Hope to see you all soon.
Gratitude blessing suggestion- $15, Sliding scale-$0-$20
