Kundalini Restore with Darcy Arthur
Kundalini yoga is a deeply invigorating practice. It is designed to release stagnant energy and create flow
within the body. This class will feature a Kundalini yoga set to release stress and tone the nervous
system, a restorative wind down that will lead to a deep gong relaxation.
Kundalini yoga has been the foundation of the studio since it opened and this new class offers a twist to
traditional Kundalini yoga!
Students of all levels may participate as well as beginners, all
students are encouraged to practice at their own pace and modifications are
always offered.
Full Moon Gong Meditation with Darcy Arthur
Amplify the energy of the Full Moon with this celestial sound healing. We will shift our minds, bodies and spirits with the healing vibration of the gong and explore the sacred numerology and astrology of the month. Our ancestors lived by the moon and her phases, these monthly events can strengthen our connection to the cosmos thus restoring our connection to the Earth. After a meditation from the Kundalini tradition, you will lie on your yoga mat, draped in a warm blanket as the waves of sound wash over your body. As our bodies are over 60% water, the sound vibration begins to resonate throughout your body. This has a very healing effect on restoring and strengthening the parasympathetic nervous system as well as moving energy blocks within the body. This creates a flow within you and opens your mind, as your mind opens, limiting thoughts and beliefs in the subconscious mind are released, filling the mind with peace. This peace within you brings the body, mind and spirit into a state of homeostasis. The gong has been used in South Asia for thousands of years for healing. Mat Reservation is required as this event sells out monthly.

Traditional Kundalini with Darcy Arthur
Kundalini yoga is a powerful style to effect change in our nervous system. Kundalini yoga uses breath, mantra, asana and meditation to direct energy through the body via the energy channels. If you have been feeling stagnant, Kundalini yoga can shift your energy and increase the flow of Prana. Clinical studies have shown Kundalini yoga and meditation to work deeply on the nervous system and the brain. Kundalini meditations can increase gray matter in the brain and release neurotransmitters to reduce stress and anxiety. This class will help you build physical, mental and spiritual resilience.
