Anniversary Get Together, Monday Higgins Lake Hatha Changed to 10:30am, + the Return of Nora!

Hello, friends!

Please join us as we get together to celebrate YOU, the Stone Turtle Yogis, as well as our 3rd Anniversary! At 6:30pm (after Hatha Yoga) on Tuesday, June, 30th, we’ll meet on the sun deck to enjoy some quality time with each other, as well as some light snacks and beverages. This will not be a potluck, but more of a happy hour of sorts. Feel free to bring anything, including a friend or spouse, or just your awesome self!

Also, we are making a slight schedule change for Monday morning Hatha Yoga in Higgins Lake. That class will now take place a half hour later at 10:30am. So, Monday Hatha Yoga in Higgins Lake will now start at 10:30 and end at 11:30, effective next Monday, June 29th. Thank you for spreading the word and staying flexible (ha ha) as we nail down the optimal schedule! Click here to view the full class schedule.

Great news! Nora Seilheimer will be returning to STY next month to teach a handful of classes! Nora hails from Chicago, where she is a public school teacher, a yoga teacher, and also teaches yoga to her public school students.  She is an incredibly inspiring, caring, passionate teacher and person, and her classes are fun, challenging, and powerful. She will be teaching a variety of classes through July 10th – 17th. Don’t miss her!

Oh, and don’t forget, we are now offering SUP Yoga on Thursdays as well as Sundays, both at 10:00am! The truth is, everyone who comes off the water after a SUP class has a perma-grin with a darn near visible yoga glow. Come see for yourself!

Have a wonderful rest of your week and weekend. Much love, see you in class!

New Hatha Plus Class Starting this Week – Updated Location to Higgins Lake

We are SO happy to offer a new class at Stone Turtle Yoga, taught by the lovely Preya Shah!

Hatha Plus, which meets on Wednesdays at 5:30pm in Higgins Lake starting June 24th, will be slightly more rigorous than our standard Hatha class, and will emphasize total body rejuvenation and relaxation, with a focus on full, yogic breathing (Pranayama). Poses may include sun salutations, standing poses, balancing poses and more. This will be an excellent class for the middle of the week, and will leave you feeling invigorated, grounded and focused.

Preya Shah earned her Masters of Physical Therapy from the University of Michigan before she set off on a journey to understand different healing modalities from around the world. This personal passage resulted in years of studying Yoga in India, Herbal Medicine in Bali, and Holistic Medicine in Japan, which lead to a deep level of healing and connection to her true self. It’s from this profound desire to understand authentic healing, that Preya’s specialty of Mind, Body, and Spirit has blossomed. She has also spent years studying nutrition, supplementation, and craniosacral therapy as adjuncts to her yogic practice. Preya has been actively involved in learning, teaching and living the Yogic lifestyle for over 10 years. She has obtained the title of Yoga Acharya (Yoga Master) through the Sivananda International Yoga Centers.

Much love and happy summer!

PS: Plan on attending our Anniversary Potluck on Tuesday, June 30th after Hatha Yoga (around 6:30pm) in Higgins Lake!
