Paint What You Feel

Ever wanted to try and put your ideas and emotions into a painting or artwork but not quite sure how to get started?  Now is your chance to live as the expressionist did and get your wild ideas and emotions into action. 

By the end of this 6-week introductory course you can expect to have a broader understanding of contemporary art and how you can use it to express your ideas.

Yoga: Svaroopa

In Svaroopa (Svah-roo-pah) Yoga, each pose, or angle is approached in a way that allows students, with practice, to release the muscles that attach to the spine. This release begins a process of healing in the entire body/mind and opens a pathway to finding the deeper dimension of being; the true meaning of the practice (of yoga) in mind/body/spirit. Students suffering from pain will experience relief as you open your body and breath.
