Partner Yoga @ The Integral Center Boulder

Dear Friends, 

Exploring partnership through the context of Partner Yoga is a deeply rich territory for self-study and reflection. One of my biggest passions is illuminating self to self and self to other dynamics through the microscope of partnered practices. It is my honor to offer Principle-Based Partner Yoga at the beautiful yoga space, Yoga Union in the basement of The Integral Center here in Boulder, Colorado on an ongoing basis. 

You are personally invited to join me in this exploration and expansion of Partner Yoga. 

This is a fantastic opportunity to combine therapeutic yoga, conscious touch, and relating practices to deepen your understanding of yourself in relationship to others and the world. 

In addition, if you are a therapist, teacher, healer, leader, etc. please consider collaborating with me for any events or applications where you feel that Partner Yoga may be a fit. In particular, Partner Yoga can be a wonderful team building activity for colleagues, team-mates, lovers, and friends. Working together with you and your clients would be an honor. If you know anyone who might resonate with this possibility please pass along my information by forwarding this email. On another note, I am always seeking people to practices and play partner yoga, in a casual way away from the teaching setting. If this is something that interests you please do let me know!
