Yoga, Creative Writing, Meditation, Visual Art and More!
Shakthi Ganeshan has been teaching yoga and meditation
for 18 years. She brings gentleness and vitality in her yoga class, warmth and
laughter. She is a physician, an Indian classical dancer and brings that wisdom
to her teaching. She is trained as a doctor of Internal Medicine and Pediatrics
MD, and has a Masters in Public Health. She also has trained in the Community
Dharma Leaders training in the tradition of Vipassana with Insight Meditation
Society and Spirit Rock and brings those teachings to students of meditation.
Shakthi delights in making ayurvedic food, writing poetry and prose, and
studying singing. You’ll leave her class feeling open, and re-vitalized.
Artist, writer and theater-maker, Amy Sass, combines her
passion for artistic play with mindful, present-moment experiences. Amy is the
Artistic Director of Ragged Wing Ensemble, and the creator of The School Of
Fierce Play. Amy believes in the divine medicine of creativity, as it opens up
intuitive channels, builds self-kindness, unlocks imagination and connects us
to the magic and wisdom of the tactile, sensory world. Through her 20 year
journey as an arts practitioner, she calls upon the power of art to heal,
empower and build a more just and loving society. Bring your inner child out to
play as we explore seasonal themes through visual art, creative writing and
outdoor artistic explorations.
Cost: $550 - $640 (includes accommodation, tuition, and meals)
