UPCOMING WORKSHOPS & RETREATS

 

Don't miss these NEW upcoming workshops:
  • Maya Tulum Yoga Retreat: 7-14 April, 2007 - please book early to avoid disappointment!!

This will be our fourth year at Maya Tulum. Each year I think that perhaps I should explore another part of the world, but each visit proves to be such a wonderful experience, so magical, both for me and those that attend, that I keep going back! The truth is that a yoga retreat should be about time to move within, to explore oneself and to live in each moment; to get back in touch with the inherent joy and peace within and to see that light within others - the light that joins us all in this wonderful world - this is the real practice of yoga, and Maya Tulum provides the perfect place to do just that!  I hope you will join us.

The following workshops are suitable for teachers in training or anyone interested in deepening their knowledge and practice of yoga.

CE credits available for workshops and classes.

Please email Suzanne or visit Little River Yoga for details. Book early to secure your space.

YOGA WORKSHOP
SEPTEMBER 16, 2001

 

We all had a wonderful day at the workshop on September 16, 2001 despite cancellations due to the tragic events of September 11. This workshop was held at a small, tranquil, retreat center overlooking Piscataway Bay (only 20 minutes from Old Town, Alexandria). The weather was glorious so we took ourselves outside and practiced Yoga in the warm breeze, with bird song as our background music. An ideal setting, good company, yoga, pranayama, meditation, and a day of fun and laughter. 

  • "Very enjoyable! Well planned, relaxing and a chance to expand."

  • "A beautiful day with lovely people.  Just what I was looking for!"

  • "Do it again!  Soon !"

  • "Thanks for the day. A wonderfully relaxing and inspiring experience with good folks!"

  • "An exquisite day of yoga, leaving one feeling rejuvenated, energized and yet with a sense of peacefulness. "

  • "Thanks for a glorious day."
