Group Activations

Partner, Group (Mandala, HuMandala, PranaDance, Hong-Sau) and Flying Yoga (Union Yoga) practices cultivate group resonance, trust, listening, strength and empowerment.  These group activations can be tailored for corporate groups, communities, festivals, kids parties, retreats/conferences, or any other context where community building interactivity is welcomed.  For more info, see Connective Playshops.


Qi Gong
 
Foundational and profound Qi Gong sessions can be stand alone or combined with customized nature excursions to fully tap into the power of connecting with the Mana of the Earth & Sky. These sessions can be tailored for individuals or groups. 


Yoga Therapy 

Yoga Therapy sessions honor individual needs.  Programs can be designed from an Ayurvedic perspective, for injury rehabilitation, or to address specific spiritual, emotional or physical priorities.
