be broken down and drilled to help participants master them. This
workshop will introduce zills as more than just accessories used
to accent the music, but as musical instruments.

Cost: $35 per person.
Some belly dance experience
required. Please call with questions.

Deepen Your Yoga: Lessons in Feldenkrais®
Four Part Series
Each Sunday in September from 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm
Join us for a series of Feldenkrais® Lessons designed to help you
get more out of your Yoga practice. The Feldenkrais Method® is a
sophisticated movement education system with each lesson designed
to teach the relationship of body parts to each other and to the
whole by stimulating the nervous system. You will begin to learn
how to move in a way that is painless and is optimal for your body
shape and condition.
The goals for this series of
classes are to:
• Enhance your ability to feel and sense what is happening while
moving into and holding a Yoga pose;
• Develop the ability to guide your practice to the optimal level
of effort to obtain maximum benefits;
• Become aware of habitual patterns of moving and holding that are
not beneficial to the individual;
• Improve your ability to focus your awareness inwardly, to
improve your concentration and increase the level of relaxation
obtained from your practice
