Yoga and the Female Pelvic Floor

March 15th 2-4pm
Cost: $40 
*Book through the MindBody App 
Maria Zenz, MPT and owner of Minster Individualized Therapy will guide you through a 2-hour intensive workshop on the female pelvic floor. She has extensive post-graduate training in pelvic rehabilitation with a special interest in prenatal and postnatal recovery. Through the combination of movement and discussion, Maria will dive into the anatomy of the female pelvic floor along with many of the things detailed below.

As we age, a strong and flexible pelvic floor helps keep the pelvic and abdominal organs healthy. Proper work of strengthening, stabilizing, stretching and softening the pelvic floor helps to create the correct foundation of movement in the body. Over fifty percent of women struggle with prolapsed organs, incontinence, and pelvic pain. "Just do your Kegels" is the most common prescription as a catch all cure. A healthy, strong, and flexible pelvic floor is more than just doing Kegels and discovering your mula bandha. These common prescriptions can sometimes cause more problems.

The anatomy of the female pelvis is commonly misunderstood and under appreciated. The pelvic muscles are important for optimal function of the body as a whole. The health of the pelvic floor is commonly associated with lumbar spinal problems, sacroiliac, hip, or sciatic pain, bladder weakness, prolapse of the uterus or the bladder, and digestive, menstrual, and sexual difficulties. Join us for two hours of discussion and movement!

Candlelit Reiki and Restore

March 15th 7-8:30pm
Cost: $20
*Book through the MindBody App ​
Join Chloe and Heather for an evening of relaxation and rejuvenation. A beautiful candlelit flower mandala will be the centerpiece of the room. This class combines restorative yoga with reiki. Chloe will guide you through your practice while Heather will offer reiki adjustments throughout the class. Intention cards and essential oils will be utilized to enhance your experience.

Reiki is a Japanese technique for pain and stress relief that promotes healing, relaxation, feelings of peace, and a restful nights sleep. The word (Rei) means “Higher power/ Wisdom” and (Ki) means “life force energy”.

​It is a safe and natural method use to create balance within. The Practitioner uses the gentle placement of hands (about the weight of a nickel) on various areas of the fully-clothed body, creating space for your inner healer to do it’s work. ​

​Essential Oils of the Bible

March 17th 6-7:30pm
Cost: $15
*Book through the MindBody App ​
​Join Jessica for an evening of oils!

What does the Bible say about essential oils? Though essential oils have become pretty popular in modern time, it seems the tradition of using naturally derived aromatic oils have a long history in Christianity. Having been used in religious sacraments for millenniums, perhaps the health benefits of these anointing oils were known long before their contemporary popularity! Come discover the greatness of the oils of the Bible and learn why we should use them today.

No yoga experience needed.

​Yoga for Back Pain Relief with Amy Fecher

April 5th 2:30-4:30pm
Cost: $40
*Book through the MindBody App ​​
A strong and healthy back is essential to our well-being and vitality!

Our sedentary lifestyle, such as sitting at the computer, driving to and from work, and relaxing on the couch can weaken our backs and contribute to poor posture. Ligaments and tendons shorten over time causing tension and compression in the spine which further contribute to a weak and painful back. This two hour workshop is designed to help you understand the causes of back pain and learn ways that you can prevent it. You will learn Yoga postures and therapeutic exercises which will benefit the whole body. You will take home with you a self-care plan devised to strengthen and lengthen your back that you can integrate into your daily routine at home. This workshop is for you if you are dealing with chronic back pain, struggling with scoliosis, sciatica, SI Joint instability, or nerve pain. This workshop is also ideal for those interested in preventing injury, runners, and those who have tight hips and hamstrings. If you are under the care of a physician, check to make sure this workshop is right for you. ​
