Yamuna Body Rolling: Save Your Feet!

Written by Neely on . Posted in Body Rolling, Classes, Pilates, Workshops, Yoga.


YBR Feet and extra classes flyer for June 2015-page-001

“Warm weather is finally here which means people get crazy trying to get in shape for the beach. If you are about to start doing more extreme fitness, start with getting your feet in shape. Improve their alignment and function. Once you have your foundation solid the rest of the body is easier to align so you can avoid any injuries. Get in shape smart, rather than just jumping in without a plan that supports our body in getting the results you want and avoiding injuries.

“As we all start shedding our heavier closed shoes for lighter shoes, sandals and flip flops we are giving our feet freedom. But freedom without education often translates into collapsed arches, swollen ankles, puffy, pasty, and weak feet. Did you know that you can actually build stronger and improved feet while wearing flip flops?” -Yamuna Zake

In this workshop you’ll learn how to improve the muscles of your legs from working your feet, techniques to help with common foot ailments, and how to walk, especially in flip flops.

Reiki Workshops with Cat Rhyne

What is Reiki?
rei·ki /ˈrākē/

noun
a healing technique based on the principle that the therapist can channel energy into the patient by means of touch, to activate the natural healing processes of the patient’s body and restore physical and emotional well-being.

Reiki Update & Review

This class is for all previous Reiki practitioners who are interested in learning new information about Reiki, it’s uses, new forms, etc… It will include new language, history and techniques for preparing for and doing Reiki treatments. It will also include information about using mudras, aura clearing, and working with the Reiki Grid. There will be meditations and a Reiki share at the end of the class.

 

Length: 1 day/10 hours (there’s a lot of information to cover!) It will be a day full of activities and fun, plus interesting information. Handout package included.

 

Cost: $150; $50 Deposit due at Registration (before Oct. 31)

Reiki I & II with Holy Fire*
The ICRT has combined the One and Two levels of Reiki, so this class is open to all persons interested in learning to perform Reiki treatments on themselves and others, as well as students who have completed the Reiki I level already. It will be a review of Reiki I and extend into how to perform Reiki on others, animals, plants, and objects. There will also be a Holy Fire pre-ignition. Holy Fire is a new Reiki Energy. This class will include four attunements for Levels I/II, as well as meditations and plenty of practice time for doing chair Reiki, circle Reiki, self Reiki and table Reiki.

Length: 3 days/6-8 hrs each; Manual and Certificate included
Cost: $450; $100 Deposit due at Registration (before Oct. 31)

ART ~ Master Reiki ~ Holy Fire*

Once a student has completed Reiki I & II training and worked with Reiki for at least 6 months, they may further their Reiki skills with the ART (Advanced Reiki Training) and Master classes.

 

The entire series is 3 days, but a student may prefer to only go for the one-day Advanced Reiki Training, which gives you an advanced symbol and attunement, but does not give the Master symbol, nor teach and enable you to train others in Reiki. The full 3 day course includes advanced Reiki practices such as the Healing Attunement, the Master symbol, instruction on training and attuning others to Reiki, as well as the Holy Fire ignition process. Manual and Certificate included for either class.

ART: Length: 1 day/8 hours
Cost: $275; $75 Deposit due at Registration

 

Master: Length: 3 days/8 hours each day
Cost: $875; $275 Deposit due at Registration

Register ART and/or Master

*HOLY FIRE REIKI
Holy Fire Reiki is a new form of Reiki being introduced by the ICRT. It is both powerful and gentle and provides purification, healing, empowerment and guidance. It is included as part of our Usui Reiki classes and has also been added to Karuna Reiki® training. Holy Fire energy is noticeably more refined and comes from a higher level of consciousness.
Cat Rhyne is a massage therapist, a Usui/Holy Fire Reiki Master, and a Karuna/Holy Fire Reiki® Master Master Teacher
