Workshop: Yoga for Your Daily Life

June 16th, 2010

What is yoga? How do we decide which style of yoga to choose? How does yoga benefit the body and mind, and how can we reap those benefits in our daily lives?

This workshop will include a general introduction to the benefits of yoga, including a brief overview of yogic philosophy and the instructor’s personal experiences. The presentation will emphasize simple breathing exercises and guidelines for better posture that can be incorporated into everyday life. A brief Q&A will follow.

Open to anyone with an interest in yoga, including those with no experience practicing yoga to those with an already established yoga practice.

Judy Seto has been teaching Ashtanga yoga in Chengdu since January 2008. She is certified by Yoga Thailand and The Yoga Sanctuary in Toronto and has been practicing yoga for more than 10 years.

End of year update

November 21st, 2009

Hope you are all well!

Maher and I are now the parents of Rahul and Leila, two beautiful babies who were born in Hong Kong on the 1st of November at the Queen Mary Hosptial. They were nine weeks pre-term and are both in neonatal ICU at the hospital. I will be in Hong Kong until mid to end January depending on how things develop, and what after care the babies will need. They are both strong and doing well.

Judy will be traveling to Canada in February, and to Yoga Thailand to attend a one month teacher training course in March!

In light of all of this, the studio will be closed for the first few months of the year. We will specify the dates as soon as I have more information on my return to Chengdu.  Most likely it will be from mid to end January.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Please note that the drop-in fee will be 50 RMB starting December 1st.

Best wishes,
Natasha
