JUNE 13 - 7pm - NEW MOON PRACTICE WITH REIKI - This 90-minute class, open to all, embraces the natural energy of the Moon to aid in alignment. The intention is to create an environment that supports personal healing and transformation. Includes guided meditation, mantras, gentle poses, with emphasis on a long Savasana or Corpse Pose, and optional Reiki.  New Moon energy provides the dark fertile ground in which to plant your intentions. It’s an ideal time for removing blocks and clearing out. New Moon focuses on beginnings, opening doors and new possibilities.
Reiki is pure Universal Healing Energy channelled through an attuned practitioner via light touch (or distance) to a receptive person. Savasana is a perfect time to receive Reiki while the body and mind are deeply relaxed and receptive. Reiki is harmless and always offered with pure intentions. It is never imposed, and naturally flows to where it’s most needed. If you do not want to receive Reiki that is perfectly fine.
This unique class will be led by Linda Principato, 200HR-RYT Holistic Health Coach, Reflexologist and Reiki Master.
Cost is $25/$20 for 5BPY VIP, Gold & Silver Members and any 'current' new visitor. PROGRAM TAKES PLACE AT 5BPY KIDS STUDIO.

Slow flow asana practice followed by a 45 minute Yoga Nidra.
On the most basic level, Yoga Nidra relaxes,rejuvenates and renews the physical body. It empowers you to eliminate unconscious obstructions and energetic blocks that may prevent you from living life to its fullest. Through regular practice, Yoga Nidra enables you to effortlessly realize your intentions and achieve an integrated state for your body to move toward self-healing.

JUNE 24TH - 7PM-  CONNECT TO THE POWER WITHIN YOU - In this workshop, led by 200 Hour, Tier 1 Certified Baptiste Teacher, Lisa Herbert, we will use the practices and techniques of Baptiste Yoga - asana, inquiry and meditation to develop a closer understanding of when we are moving from our core values, and creating our most intentional life, and when we are not.
We will begin with a brief meditation on connecting to and unblocking the Manipura Chakra (solar plexus), the energy center located most closely to our physical core and create some awareness around where your thoughts and actions align or don't.
We will then move through a heated slow intentional flow designed to burn away resistance, remove whatever is taking you out of alignment with your core values and allow yourself to be energized and connected to your own inner power. You will leave feeling energized and reconnected to your true self, ready to create an intentional way of being. Please bring a journal and a pen. Cost is $25/$20 for 5BPY VIP, Gold & Silver Members, any current "new visitor" or anyone with Summer Special or enrolled in Beginner Series. PROGRAM TAKES PLACE AT 5BPY KIDS STUDIO.

JUNE 29TH - 7.30pm - FULL MOON PRACTICE WITH YOGA NIDRA @5BPY SOUTH - This 90 minute class, open to all, uses the natural energy of the moon to aid in alignment.  Using a combination of therapeutic grade essential oils, we will move through the practice slowly, which gently increases flexibility and range of motion, ending with yoga nidra.   Yoga Nidra is an ancient yogic practice designed to cultivate complete relaxation and meditative awareness.  The phrase literally means "yoga sleep".  While it does not involve actually sleeping, the practice emphasizes long periods of Savasana, or Corpse Pose.  Los Angeles-based yoga instructor Rod Stryker describes yoga nidra as "a systematic method of complete relaxation, holistically addressing our physiological, neurological and subconscious needs" as an antidote to the "chronically exhausted, over stimulated world" in which we live.    This unique class will be led by Susan Farina, RN, 500 RYT, Level 2 Reiki   Cost is $25/$20 for 5BPY VIP, Gold or Silver Member or any current "new visitor"; $15 for anyone with Summer Special. PROGRAM TAKES PLACE AT 5BPY SOUTH STUDIO (entrance in rear).

In this 3 hour program, you will get to experience a completely unique and captivating technique using acrylic mediums, glitter glue and rhinestones. Olga developed this technique which is very easy and simple, but at the same time is a great way to enhance your focus and mindful presence. Working with a bright color palette provides great visual stimulation which influences mood, feelings and emotions in a very positive way.
The intention for this workshop is to create an intimate and quiet space where one can relax and immerse in
the meditative process of creating something beautiful and is open to adults and kids age 8 and up!
Come alone or with your kids or a friend to get inspired and create!
All materials will be supplied. Light snacks and refreshments will be served. Cost is $79/$69 for 5BPY VIP, Gold & Silver Members and any current 'new visitor' and anyone with Summer Special PRE-REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED. PROGRAM TAKES PLACE AT 5BPY KIDS STUDIO.
