Present Power
Friday June 13, 2025 8:00am - 9:00am EDT
The true purpose of asana is to begin the long process of training the mind in concentration in order to prepare the practitioner for meditation.  In other words, if you aren’t making an effort to pay attention in your asana classes, you aren’t practicing “yoga” and it isn’t abhyasa, or practice.  This master class, with renowned author and teacher, Beryl Bender, is an accessible, flowing balanced sequence of our most beloved yoga postures and all about paying attention and training the mind in concentration.  Experience deep focus on conscious breathing.  Link breath with movement from posture to posture, moment to moment, staying present as the practice unfolds. Distracted? Notice! Begin again.  Distracted? Notice! Begin again.  Gentle or vigorous - up to you.  Do what you can and be happy.

Joint Healing w/Taoist Yoga & "Knees Over Toes"
Friday June 13, 2025 8:00am - 9:30am EDT
Do you or your clients deal with knee, ankle, foot or hip pain?  Do you lack mobility or strength in these joints because of an old injury or lifestyle? If so this workshop can change your life and provide you tools to heal.

Andrew Tanner grew up playing hockey goalie for 12 years and developed serious knee problems requiring surgery by age 19, luckily instead of surgery he took a flyer on taoist yoga and found within 3 weeks of a regular taoist bowing practice and stance work his knee pain and instability was gone!

20 years of yoga and health later in a freak accident he fell down a flight of stairs in 2021 and badly damaged his left foot/ankle and spine and developed extremely painful plantar fasciitis and constant foot and neck pain. During this second healing journey Andrew found the teachings of former Olympic Coach Charles Poliquin, made popular by Ben Patrick the "knees over toes" guy.

Combining simple Taoist Yoga stance work and joint release exercises with Poliquin's progressive overload and various "knees over toes" positions, Andrew was able to quickly heal his own injuries but even more, he has become stronger and more mobile then he was as a yogi in his twenties!

In this Workshop You Will Experience:
  • A short talk explaining the core theory of progressive overload and healing with "knees over toes"
  • A 50-Min All Levels practice that incorporates
    • Gentle Qi Gong movements to awaken and warm up the joints
    • Full joint rotational exercises for enhanced mobility
    • Functional exercises that target the feet, ankles, knees, and hips for healing, mobility 
  • A routine you can share with your students

And while it can be augmented with different environmental, familial, or social patterns, the primary pattern is one we all have in common. Whether your age or degree of flexibility, Avita Yoga identifies the patterns and the restrictions they create to unwind them both. The result is more happiness.

The teacher focuses on keeping the pace moving and does not stop to give spiritual discourses. Since the asana sequence is always the same, a student will pick it up quite quickly after only a couple of classes.

Friday June 13, 2025 4:00pm - 5:30pm EDT
This workshop is a smartly sequenced slow flow of postures, and prop assisted self massage. This sequencing makes sense to the body in a way that allows for remarkable change in a short period of time. 

The first portion of the class is about cross patterns in the body. These are the stretches that really open us physically and create postural shift in both the chest and spine.

During the second half of the class the focus is on using that opening to deepen heart opening poses and discovering places of balance, space and restoration. 

Rather than highlighting any one group of muscles this workshop touches lightly on all areas of the body to leave the practitioner feeling wildly open, profoundly grounded, and deliciously complete.

The BIG Rest: A Metta Inspired Restorative Practice
Friday June 13, 2025 7:00pm - 8:00pm EDT
“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” —Rumi


An opportunity to land, arrive and relax...
Relaxing our tension can help us expand our capacity to feel our compassion and our connectedness to ourselves and others. We are practicing relaxing and opening when we feel the impulse to do the opposite. We are practicing on our mats, so we can be more open and compassionate in the daily moments of our lives.

Metta (Lovingkindness) is an ancient technique that helps us expand our capacity to connect with our heart’s core qualities. Traditionally, it combines visualization with affirmations or prayers coupled with the practice of self-awareness.

In this practice, we’ll weave metta affirmations and blessings throughout our slow flow warm-ups and as we settle deeply into our restoratives. With a special focus on our lungs and heart center, we’ll expand our capacity to stay present and listen with our hearts, so you can continue releasing tension, find deep relaxation, and respond (not react) with awareness and compassion.
