Principle Based Partner Yoga Workshop


Principle Based Partner Yoga Workshop 
Saturday April 7, 10am - 1230pm
www.yoganorthduluth.com to register

Partner Yoga is a way to experience the true essence of Yoga, which is Union. Benefitting from the touch, support and presence of our partner and the larger group, we will move more deeply together into foundational and restorative Yoga postures using gravity, balance, support and partner traction. Principles such as union, trust, touch and silence will be woven into the practice and be taken with you out into your life and community. 
The practice is made for everybody, regardless of experience and is a beautiful sharing of energy without many words. 

Cost - $60 per couple pre-paid or $75 at the door. 
Margaret Harstad, RYT200 is a Thai Therapist in the Duluth Community as well as a Partner Yoga and Thai Restorative Teacher at Yoga North. She is very excited to share this work with our community small and large. For more information, visit her website at www.muggymoose.com.

New at Muggymoose

Recently I have started offering Partners Thai Bodywork Privates at my studio. In a private class, I work with two people, teaching them how to exchange some laypersons work on one another. The prices run the same as they would for a private one on one session. The sessions I have taught so far have been lovely.
