Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

Thank you Eoin Finn for coming to Tofino on March 27th to share your knowledge and enthusiasm with all of us! It was great to get a visual on the body’s pelvic bone structure as well as enjoy a vigorous sweaty flow class. Hello hips!!

Thanks to all of you that came to participate in The Pursuit of Happy Hips woskshop. For the first workshop held in the new studio space we had a full room with great energy flowing through for the 3 hour workshop! It was also nice to have Natalie Rousseau’s Teacher Training crew come join us for the event. I hope everyone had as much fun as I did and I look forward to many more workshops and events at Coastal Bliss Yoga!

see you soon

Intro To Yoga Course completed

Wednesday, March 17th, 2010

Congratulations to all of you that just completed the Intro to Yoga course with Natalie Rousseau!

It was a great experience for me to have the pleasure of meeting all of you and assisting throughout the 5 weeks. I was amazed at the progress from week 1 to week 5. Hopefully you all feel you have an understanding of the foundational poses and sequencing of a yoga class.

Now that you have a discount coupon to buy a pass at the studio, hope to see you soon in the drop in classes and maybe a workshop or two.

If you missed out on this course and would  like the opportunity to take it some other time, we will be running more throughout the year.                                                                                                                                                                                                   For more info on Natalie, her workshops, Teacher Trainings and on going classes check out pacificelements.ca

Now get out there and enjoy the sunshine!

Yoga Workshop March 27th!

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

Only 10 more days til the first Yoga Workshop in the new studio!

Come join Eoin Finn on Saturday March 27th for The Pursuit of Happy Hips – workshop & flow practice – go deeper than you can imagine without injury. Eductate yourself with this paradigm shifting event.

The energy of the hip area can be alive and vital, or dull and dormant. The hips are the connecting point between the upper and lower body. Furthermore, the hip area is where we experience significant tightness, both from the stresses of our sporting activities as well as from the inactivity of sitting in chairs for more hours in a week than our ancestors could have imagined possible.

Explore pelvic anatomy and the psychology of the hips. Find out what rules we need to follow to help keep the yoga practice safe and beneficial to our physiology, while also learning how many rules actually restrict us. Then participate in Eoin’s flowing series of poses that will leave you feeling blissful and ecstatic.

Date: Saturday March 27th, 2010

Time: 1pm-4pm

Location: Coastal Bliss Yoga Studio

Cost: $29.00 plus GST

To Register: Pascale at 250-726-8241 or info@coastalblissyoga.com
