New at Nava this winter!‏

Hola amigos!

I hope that you are all having a healthy and heart-warming start to 2013! There are some exciting changes coming up at Nava this winter! I will be going on a big adventure to South America with my love and while I’m away there will be some wonderful guest teachers to continue your practice with. There will also be a new drop-in dance class on Thursday evening that you can use your punch pass for! Since there will be less classes available, pre-registering to reserve your spot is recommended (but not necessary). Please register by Monday, January 29th. In addition to securing your spot, registering is also a helpful way for me to know if there is enough commitment from students to have guest yoga teachers. Although priority goes to those who have registered for the full session, drop-ins are welcome to all classes! 

Wish you all a very blissful year!  
Namaste,
Leanne
 
The following classes have been confirmed. In addition to these two classes, there may be a couple of lunch classes and potentially a Tuesday evening class. Stay tuned for more updates and the full winter schedule!

Core and Back w/ Christina de Haas
 
This is a slower moving class that focuses on holding postures. During this class students will use a series of asanas (yoga postures), as well as bandhas (energy locks) to help build muscles in the lumbar (lower back), pelvis and abdominal regions. Building these muscles will promote correct posture and spinal alignment, and can also prevent and relieve lower back pain. This class will also include some intermediate-level asanas, as well as deep stretching, particularly in chronically tight areas for people such as the hips and hip flexors. 
 
Sundays, 8:00- 9:15pm 
12 classes, (February 3rd- April 28th, excluding Easter Sunday on March 31)
To register for all 12 classes: 12 punches of any punch card or $150.  (Now only $135!)

Dance Fusion w/ Danielle Leighton
 
This multi-level class is suitable for beginners with no dance experience – there’s no choreography and no pressure!  Dance is about joy and delight, and this class is all about moving in our bodies and expressing that joy. This class is inspired by different kinds of music and different kinds of dance, and offers students a chance to play with ‘dance’ without getting stuck in genre-specific technique.  This is a drop-in class, so come have fun!
Thursdays, 5:30-6:30,
12 classes  (Feb 7-April 25th)
To register for the full series: 10 punches of any punch card or $120.
