Chakra Vinyasa: 4 Week Series with Beth Ann Schroeder

Begins Monday, May 7th

(Runs May 7th-28th)

8PM-9:30PM

$60 Full Session

$20 Drop-in

Come explore the Chakra/Bhanda connection in this comprehensive vinyasa series, and discover how the awareness and subtle engagement of this energy system can invigorate your practice and keep you moving safely on your mat. Students will learn through this class how to identify the blockages of life force within the body, caused by physical and emotional patterning throughout one's life, as well as techniques to release these blocks through use of asana, pranayama(concious breathing techniques) and different forms of sound healing.  Students will then be treated to an extended shavasana, with the use of Chakra Bowls attuned to the 7 Chakras. Be prepared to take flight, and then, land in a sea of sound bliss each week...with lots of laughter and fun along the way! 

Beth Ann Schroeder received her 300 hour Yoga Teacher Certification through Yoga Synthesis in 2007, and continued her education with Raji in 2011, with the completion of the 500 hour Advanced Yoga Teacher certification.

Testimonials from previous trainings:
"The workshop went beyond just crystal bowl training since you presented a compassionate way of offering sound vibration for healing which I find is so much more important than treating the bowls as just a performance tool. Thanks to your manual, now I have a reference to technical information. I feel that the most I got out of the class is confidence in offering
healing sound vibration using the crystal bowls to people. I felt very comfortable with your training and received some valuable intuitive 
guidance about myself from the chakra exploration.”


"The crystal bowl workshop provided me with valuable knowledge & hands on experience giving me the confidence to use the crystal bowl as a healing journey for myself & for my yoga students."

The DREAMBODY is a unique and powerful workshop created by Jyoti Chrystal and Jason Martin offered over consecutive weekends to immerse you into the world of Shamanism. The Dreambody is designed to enter you into a trance like state  utilizing a variety of methods and rituals. The Dreambody is a place we are all familiar with; we go there every night when we sleep as dreaming is an essential function for our mental and emotional stability and well being.   Being in the dreambody shamanically lets us work consciously with our subconscious mind; helps to get in touch with our true inner selves, intuition, and inner wisdom; may enable a connection with spirit guides and angels and allows us to tap into the wisdom of the universe and heal.  This has been one of Starseed's most popular workshops and is guaranteed to change your life!  It will stir your world and bring forth soul retrieval like you've never known it.
Testimonials from past participants in the Dreambody:

"The Dreambody experience has proven to be one of the truly epochal events of my life. I emerged from my first Dreambody stunned at what I discovered about myself, my dreams and my relation to the "other world" and empowered to use those discoveries! I emerged from my second Dreambody experience resolved to make my participation an ongoing process. I cannot describe in detail what I experienced in the Dreambody because I don't have the vocabulary to describe it - and doubt that I ever will. But I will be forever grateful to both of you for fostering my self-discovery and my empowerment through this indescribable process."

"Before the Dreambody workshop I had the expectation that I would walk out of it a new, healed person. Afterward, I came to the awareness that what I got from the Dreambody was a new and much deeper, greater clarity about the direction my ongoing healing journey needs to take. Thank you Jason, Jyoti and all the Dreambody assistants, for providing me with the incredible, blessed opportunity to delve to a whole new level of the hard work of my healing!"
"Equivalent to 10 years of psychotherapy."
"Before entering the Dreambody workshop, I had no idea what to expect from the rituals or the impact it would have on my life. This workshop truly allowed me to gain such clarity and awareness of my authentic self and empowered me to make substantial changes in my life that previously I was to afraid to address. Jason in particular was so completely supportive, caring, and nuturing that it made a big difference in my experience and healing."

We've all heard how Pilates strengthens your core, but there is so much more to it than that! Pilates is a way to re-establish how you stand, sit and move. Practicing the method involves neuromuscular re-education and is a great way to break out of old postural habits, or simply increase your movement efficiency for more active pursuits. Class members will receive individual attention for their specific needs. Gigi Gould is a certified Pilates Instructor.  She received her training at the Kane School in New York City.  She is also a certified Breast Cancer Exercise Specialist through the Pink Ribbon Program. Her teaching style has an emphasis on correct alignment, the integration of breath, and creating better movement efficiency for all physical activities. Pilates is not just about developing a strong core, as many are inclined to think. The focus on the mind/body connection has a role in centering the mind, as much as the body.
