Upcoming Classes & Events
If you usually dread abdominal exercises yet you desire vibrant, luscious Core, this class series is for you.
​
The resistance to moving and exercising our Core abdominal area occurs when we are taught to do it in a forceful way – failing to pay attention to the sensual, emotional, and mental qualities of this vital center of our bodies.
​
We also often skip the essential pre-requisites to the effective core work which is Healing. We need mindful connecting, opening, aligning, and detoxing of the tissues before we can truly access and activate the internal and external strength that is possible at any age or shape.
​
The Core is a powerful psychosomatic center that influences how we feel and act in our daily lives.
Please join us for the weekly practice to rediscover all the benefits of a vibrant feminine Core.

Rejuvenate & restore through Althea's Gong Bath with Gong and Sound Sculptor, Gregg Wilkins!
Come join us and bathe in the sound and vibration of the Paiste Earth Gong and other sacred sound instruments in a glorious range of vibrational frequencies.
Be immersed into the vibrations and resonance of sound instruments allowing the sound to “wash” over you. These sessions can have a profound effect on many levels of your being and consciousness including the physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional as well as facilitating the potential for reaching Theta and Delta states from our waking Beta state.
Due to the broad spectrum of frequencies created by these instruments and the resonance created through them, you are able to hear sounds through your ears and also able to sense through your skin and skeletal system. This may even affect your being on a cellular level.
This will be an amazing way to rejuvenate your soul!
What to bring:
Wear comfortable clothing you can relax in.
Feel free to bring a yoga mat, blanket, and bolster pillow for personal comfort during the sound meditation.
Bring your own water.
