August/2009

Dear Yogis and Friends:

I hope that summer is treating you very well.

Things are great with us, here. My dad is in town for a few days on his way back from Egypt. Last night, we decided to take the family to the free Jazz night at LACMA. So cool to see all the many different faces of this beautiful city hanging out together, chilling on the grass, dancing, laughing and relaxing.

LACMA has two new interactive art pieces up, both made from plastic throaway items. Very Burning Man'ish, but very kid friendly, as well. Kaia loved them! She'd walk her waddle-walk through the pieces, tugging on them and trying to drag a string of plastic with her.

Yesterday, we also discovered that Kaia likes toy cars (who would've thought!) And we were reminded of a crucial rule in toddlerhood: don't let your toddler roam around when tired. They start to get sloppy and fall over as if they were drunk.

After her second mini fall onto her hands, crying ensued and we decided it was high time to tail it back home. Tears dry, Kaia fell asleep in the car and we made it home by 8pm.

What a lovely night. I highly recommend it.

Hope you have a lovely summer!

Monday Afternoons in Venice: Core Yoga CoreYoga
What is Core Yoga? Breath Exercise
Core Yoga* is what I do when I'm on vacation or don't have time for my regular practice. It's the kind of class I wish I could take more often, but one that's not taught anywhere because it's not just one style of yoga, but a mixture of what works best for me from the various styles that I've studied and immersed myself in over the last 11 years.

It's the kind of class that I did before I got pregnant*. It's probably why I never had any low back pain while pregnant and why I've bounced back from pregnancy so well. Core Yoga tends to "de-tweak" my low back and shoulders while giving me a great workout. I finish feeling strong, stretchy, relaxed, connected and fluid.

If you're interested, drop on by. Class will be held outdoors, so bring appropriate clothing and sunscreen, if you need it. For now, we're only committing to two months of core yoga - August and September. We may continue after that, we may not.

No RSVP necessary. Just show up if and when you can.



Core Yoga offers:

Pranayama,
the science of activating Prana, Chi, or Life Force within the body.

Core Strength,
which reduces low back pain and helps awaken your center. Feel stronger, more balanced and connected to your life goals.

Stretch,
because sometimes, it's good to just stretch it out.

Offered in the spirit of donation.


*Core Yoga is not appropriate for pregnant women
