Jacksonville Surf Training with Maggie

Hello Friends and Family!!

Well, since returning from Costa Rica and working with the Surf and Yoga Retreat (Thanks Gry and Lotus Yoga :) there has been so much inspiration in starting a business that focuses on surfing, being healthy, Yoga and fitness.  My long time friend, Tiffany Layton approached me about starting a business and hence, Jacksonville Surf Training was born...

We were approached with an incredible opportunity to participate with Groupon.com which offers deals to large groups of people, if you don't know about it, you gotta check it out!  I'm forwarding our add that is running all weekend! if you are a jax local, this is a great deal and we encourage all of our friends to take advantage! and if you are receiving this and live outside the (904) area code, we just wanted to invite you to share our stoke, check out our website and spread the good word!

Hope this email finds you all well :)

Much Love,

Maggie

Jaya Jax Update

Hello Lovely Yoga Teachers!

Well it's been a while since we gathered. I know a lot of us have taken the opportunity to do some traveling so I thought we could wait a bit before planning our next gathering.

• I'd like to thank Terry at Mindful Motion Yoga again, for hosting last quarter's Jaya Jax Meeting.We discussed a lot of great ideas about our group.
• We are very open to feedback about the group and how we can make it more enjoyable when we do get together. Your ideas for fun events are important, too!!
• Heather Hixon : yogaheather@hotmail.com  (904)521-4845

• Let's plan to communicate on dates for our next meeting as well as ideas for how we can grow our yoga teachers community!
• Should we try a different day and time????
• We can possibly meet in September or October. 
• I do need someone to volunteer to host since my studio, Renaissance Healing Center in Jacksonville Beach is now closed, otherwise I would do it.
• Visit and Join our Yoga Site by clicking on the Jacksonville Yoga link on the Jaya Jax Blog.
• and/or share the blog with fellow yoga teachers by forwarding the blogsite address.

Thai Yoga Workshop Reminder at Yoga Ananda
Thai Yoga Bodywork, also known as Nuad Boran, "Assisted Yoga", is deeply rooted in the traditions of Ayurveda and hatha yoga, and is said to be a gift of Sri Dhanvantari, the celestial healer. It is a series of sensitive, rhythmic, gentle compressions and stretching administered in a flow to clear nadi's and marmas. Participants will learn to give a 90 minute session. This class gives yoga teachers confidence with hands on adjustments, and is a tool for healers, and all interested in the healing arts. All participants will receive a manual for the course.


Sudevi Linda Kramer has been teaching yoga since 1997 and has been practicing Thai Yoga Bodywork for the past five years. She is currently teaching for the Vedic Conservatory, serving as the yoga director, and is certified in Thai Bodywork, Jivamukti Yoga, and Integral Yoga.

Advanced Studies and Anatomy Trains - Lisa Long

Hello to everyone who has contacted me about Jacksonville's Advanced Studies & Yoga Therapy Training - 

As an update, our start date moved 2 weeks earlier.   For scheduling reasons, we moved the first March weekend to March 5 - 7, 2010.   Details are on the website.   www.RYT500.com   We anticipate that this is the only date that will shift in the program - as our teachers who are coming to town continue to settle their 2010 travel schedules.

Second, I plan to offer my 3rd Annual Anatomy Trains teacher gathering at my house in either January or February.  It's free.  Pot luck dinner.   For the past 2 years, teachers from many movement disciplines have gathered at my home for 2 Friday evenings to watch & discuss materials that I have from Tom Meyer's Kinesis - Anatomy Trains.   If this is a new topic for you - come on & join us!    No prior knowledge necessary!   This point-of- view of the body will be a phenomenal shift for you!   Or at least get you talking!!!   And, if you plan to take Therapy Training or the full RYT 500 with Body Balance Yoga - it's a great ground floor experience & tremendous base of knowledge to be exposed to -- or re-fresh.   I'll be back in touch with the dates for this later.   Just wanted to give you a heads up.

Please continue to share the great news about our offering here in Jacksonville with others who may be interested.   I remain available to answer any questions or concerns you may have.  Looking forward to studying with you in 2010!

Sending my best,

Lisa
