Fundraising Events

On Sunday September 19, 2010 a large gathering of yoga enthusiasts will be happening

right here in Southeastern Massachusetts, organized by 'Yoga Reaches Out'

in collaboration with the Global Mala Boston project.

Gillette Stadium is the site for an all day event that will bring together

yoga teachers and students in an effort to raise money

for 'Yoga for Single Moms' and Children's Hospital Boston.

SUPPORT Easton Yoga Center's team as we raise funds + practice yoga on and off the mat.

• Go to the event's home page + lend your financial support to one of the team members. If you are unsure whom to support, contact Liza directly first.
• Come to our $5 classes in July + August. Your $5 will go towards meeting our goal of sending 2-3 lucky students to the Yogathon. Every $25 you contribute gives you a ticket to enter our drawing for one of those slots. Other prizes include Manduka yoga mats and props.

Special Events, Classes + Workshops

* Restorative Yoga: Introductory Level

Friday August 27 from 7-8:30pm   

Cost: $10.00     Reservations are appreciated

A 'restorative' yoga practice is helpful for unwinding the mental and physical side effects of stress, anxiety and the over-scheduled life. Learn how to turn off- from your cell phones to your overly active mind- and tune in to the rhythms of your heart and your breath and create the time and space for deeper listening. This slow moving class uses props to support the body, as each pose is held for 3-5 minutes. Most poses are done while seated or lying down. Dress comfortably, bring water.

Retreats

* Mid-Summer Retreat Day

Friday August 27 from 10:00am to 3:00pm.

Cost: $40.00     Vegetarian lunch is included     RSVP is required    

(* Please note: there is a handling fee of $2.50 when using PayPal)

During this day long retreat, there will be time for writing and reflection, as well as mixed-level asana practices, breath work, meditation and some time outside (weather permitting). This summer's theme- 'samskara'- invites us to to look at our habitual modes of 'doing', thinking and speaking. From there, we can look for places where shifts in behavior might facilitate and support positive change. Forward any questions to Liza via EYC email.

Going on a yoga retreat affords us the opportunity to step away from our daily habits and obligations. It can be a wonderful time to get to know our fellow yoga practitioners; it can also be a time for quiet self-reflection where we give ourselves permission to sink. It can also be a time to expand our yoga practice, explore our spiritual side, and nourish and deepen our affection for our bodies.
