taking a little break...no Rise and Shine yoga until 9/20

There will be no Rise and Shine yoga next Monday 9/5 (Labor Day) or the following Monday 9/13 (I'll be out of town). Please join us on Monday 9/20 at 7 am.

Free Yoga class in Alachua this Sunday, September 5th!

The Inspiration Yoga Institute offers a free yoga class on the first Sunday of every month from 10:00 to 11:15. This Sunday Shari will be offering an all-levels vinyasa flow class!

Also, just a reminder that Rise and Shine Yoga is still happening on Mondays from 7:00 - 7:50 outside Dickinson and Bartram/Carr Halls on UF campus. Please join us!

next Monday's Rise and Shine Yoga...Sivananda with Sarah! and some other news...

We have been practicing yoga every Monday morning at 7am for about 2 months now...hope you'll join us soon!

Next Monday (August 9th), Sarah has offered to teach a Sivananda practice. It will run until about 8:15. Thanks, Sarah!

In addition to teaching at the FLMNH, I also teach in Alachua at the Ayurveda Health Retreat (www.ayurvedahealthretreat.com). We are incorporating a new name for our yoga school, the Inspiration Yoga Institute (www.inspirationyogainstitute.com), expanding the number of classes we offer each week, and offering class coupons in groups of 5, 10, or 20. The more classes you purchase, the better the deal. Please join our new facebook group (http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=136806853022318#!/group.php?gid=141092255921018) to keep in the know about our classes, specials and community events.


Speaking of community events...we have one this Friday! World-renowned harpist John Senior will be giving a concert at 8pm. At 6:00 he will accompany his daughter, Shareshten Senior, who will be teaching a yoga class.

Yoga, Dinner and Concert, suggested donation of $35, or 2 for $50. All proceeds benefit the International Campaign for Tibet. http://www.savetibet.org/

Rise and Shine Yoga is back!

Rise and Shine Yoga...Mondays at 7am outside Dickinson Hall. I know it's early, but once you're up it is such a nice time to be awake and practice!

Start your morning/Monday/week with your right foot forward...followed by your left, inhale, ardha chandrasana, exhale, uttanasana, inhale, arms rise, exhale, tadasana....

Rise and Shine Yoga CANCELLED 7/5 and 7/12

I am heading out of town for a conference, so there will be no yoga for the next two Monday mornings (7/5 and 7/12). We will resume on Monday 7/19. Hope to see you there!

Rise and Shine Yoga Continues Monday June 7th

Hope you had a relaxing Memorial Day. Rise and Shine Yoga is happening on Monday mornings from 7:00 to 7:50...hope to see you there!

Rise and Shine Yoga pilot class!

There seems to be more interest in a morning yoga class than a lunch hour class, so let's give it a try! Class will be held Monday morning from 7:00 to 7:50. On the large concrete slab between Dickinson and the Biology buildings. Hope to see you there!

Yoga at Dickinson Hall?

I haven't offered "Lunch Hour Yoga" in several months, because I sensed that interest was dwindling, and the temperatures dropped a bit too low for anyone to want to practice outside on a concrete slab. However, winter is long gone, and if there is any interest at all in yoga classes I would be happy to start offering them again.

Classes will be on Mondays from 12:00-12:50, unless I am in the field (which I will post on this blog). I would also be willing to teach an early morning class on Mondays from 6:30 or 7:00 to 8:00 for any of you who really want to jump-start your week.

Please let me know if you're interested in either early morning or lunch hour yoga classes by leaving me a comment or contacting me at jimhoff@flmnh.ufl.edu or johannaimhoff@gmail.com

I am still teaching Monday nights at the Ayurveda Health Retreat in Alachua from 6:00-7:00.

Namaste!
