Autumn Detox Flow – Oct 23
Yoga Intensive with Lori Moore
AUTUMN DETOX POWER FLOW
Saturday, October 23 * 10:00 am – Noon
Come sweat your prayers… and/or perhaps set an intention for Fall!
This special yoga intensive will begin with a Power/Vinyasa Flow practice to warm the body… we’ll move into twisting poses to cleanse and purify the organs… finishing with restorative poses to relax the body and stretch the organs. This combination is specifically designed to stimulate and purify the internal organs, increase respiration and circulation, improve digestion, and is an effective way to detoxify and renew the body. In addition to detoxifying our bodies through a Vinyasa practice, we’ll work to cleanse our mind, heart, and spirit through the use of meditation and reflection – transitioning into the season with a lightened heart and spirit.
This class is appropriate for continuing beginners (those who have been practicing consistently for six months or longer), as well as intermediate, and advanced students.
Advanced Reservation: $25
$30 at door, space permitting

About Lori Moore, ERYT, Fusion Director
Formally trained in the Ashtanga yoga tradition, Lori has studied with Ashtanga yoga master David Swenson, Vinyasa teacher Seane Corn, and Shannon Wells. Additional teachers who’ve inspired and guided her along the yogic path include Shiva Rea, Ana Forrest, Erich Schiffmann, Ganga White, Tracey Rich, as well as many others.
Ultimately, teachers come and go, and while she’s studied with many remarkable, in fact extraordinary, teachers, she recognizes the greatest teacher of all is the one inside – the one that lives in your heart; the one that knows what’s right for you, is the one that fundamentally remains. That is the teacher she hopes to awaken in each of her students – their own inner guru.
Lori brings yoga to our community in an environment that’s both supportive and nurturing to ALL physical levels and abilities. She enjoys teaching classes that are energetic, playful, and exploratory – working with students to help them develop their own personal and unique connection to the practice of yoga, both on and off the mat.
Besides teaching yoga, Lori is a certified Transformation Meditation teacher. She is registered with Yoga Alliance and is a member of the Sacramento Yoga Instructors’ Network. She teaches on-going classes leads workshops and retreats, trains yoga teachers, and teaches students privately. Lori is also the former owner of My Yoga Lounge (2004-2009).

What Babies Want
An Exploration of the consciousness of infants

Friday, August 27th

“Frankly, This film should be seen by everyone!.”
— Pavel Mikolosky
What the Bleep Do We Know
Please join Rebekah Lake, Prentatal Yoga Instructor and Emily Bay Olavarri, Prenatal Massage Therapist for a screening of “What Babies Want.”
This innovative film is about the profoundly important and sacred opportunity we have in bringing children into the world…. It challenges our beliefs about what infants are thinking and doing. It includes ground-breaking information on early development as well as appearances by the real experts: babies and their families.
You will have a chance to connect with other expectant parents, enjoy refreshments, and even get a chair massage during the movie! This is a must see for anyone expecting a baby. There will be a group discussion following the film.
All are welcome and it’s FREE!!
(We’ll start the movie right at 7:00pm, so arrive a few minutes early if you can.)
