MORNING YOGA with Jasmyn Steinke
After a magical night of celebration, music, dance, and soul-full connection with friends and community; it is time to reconnect with your inner light and body wisdom before crawling into bed. Engage in this gentle, early morning yoga class to calm the mind, soothe the soul, and ready you for a restful sleep.
No experience is required; you will be guided gently into a series of asanas (postures). If you have a yoga mat, wonderful; if not, you can use a towel, light blanket, or something that can be placed between you and the ground. ~Namaste
Jasmyn Steinke has been teaching and guiding Hatha Yoga since 2002. Her soothing voice guides her class in a meditative manner, drawing awareness inwards to the sensations of the body and calming the mind. Her classes leave students feeling energized, yet calm and clear minded.
9:00pm – 3:00AM – *SOUND TEMPLE*
This is a sweet and inspired space approximately 50m behind the Main Lodge for you to relax in. Casey Tollifson and
Lindsay Brandon will be your lovely hosts for the evening.
***Bring your instruments, voices and joyful expressions to share in the The Sound Temple!
