Chakra Series:  Seven Chakras in Seven Mornings:  June 8-14 at 7 am

 

Would you like a new and ancient way of seeing yourSelf, your life?  In this series, we shall travel through the chakras,  so called “wheels” of energy lined up longitudinally in the body, and described by the yogis via sound, colour, physical and personality traits.   We all have all the chakras,  though some of us have more focus on one than on another.   Through a practice of yoga, we can bring these energies into balance, experience all our colours and songs, and find the ability to re frame our experience of ourselves.

This series will be suitable for all levels, and will serve as an introduction or a deepening of chakra philosophy.   Please plan on coming to all the classes, though, if this is impossible, just speak to Marya.

The instructor, Marya Ursin, has been teaching yoga since 1981, is an RYT 500.  She teaches primarily at the National Theatre Institute, at Conn. College, and at the Dragon’s Egg, and teaches to a range of ages, from 4 to 84.  She further is a dancer and mime, director and writer, is Artistic Director for the Mystic Paper Beasts, and is managing director of the Dragon’s Egg.   She has an amazing daughter, Ana Tiwathia, and a wonderful partner/husband, Dan Potter.
