Kripalu Yoga Dance is an innovative approach to health and healing. Combining the traditions of yoga with inspiring music, YogaDance uses the chakra system as a template to explore and express our life’s energies through movement and dance. YogaDance is for all bodies of any age or ability. It is a sacred practice applicable to anyone interested in new ways of opening to the abundant riches of self-discovery.

Spring Forest Qigong Active Exercises - Ann Cathcart, BSN, RN, HTCP, HNB-BC
Ann has found this program of healing to be the simplest and most powerful way to self-heal and purify the body’s energies. She has been a student of Master Chunyi Lin, the founder of Spring Forest Qigong, for more than ten years and is now one of his master healers and teachers of Levels One and Two. We will practice seven active qigong exercises which unblock energy blockages, empower the healer and are easy to learn.

Watsu - Elaine Lutz, RN, HTCP, Watsu Coach
Watsu-"Let yourself be floated in warm water supported in another's arms, drifting in deep levels of relaxation as your body releases, stretches and energy system balances. Then, give the same caring support in exchange."
