Sound Bath + Reiki
Sound Bath + Reiki Experience
Our most vibrational experience w/ the sweetness of Reiki.
The word Reiki comes from the Japanese word (Rei) which means “Universal Life” and (Ki) which means “Energy”. Reiki is universal energy that protects + encourages fluidity in your energetic body and is transmitted through touch or hands held slightly above your body. If you prefer to just enjoy sound and not receive Reiki, you can simply opt out.
Mardi Sykes is a very long time yoga teacher in NYC and will offer sound through singing bowls. Gina, a Reiki Master and long time yoga teacher, will make her way around the room and offer Reiki to students. A recipient of Reiki might feel a warming sensation or a tingling during the session or nothing at all but sheer relaxation. The session should be very pleasant, relaxing and invigorating.
Get cozy using all of our bolsters, blankets, blocks, sandbags, and lavender eye pillows to create space, openness, and relaxation.
Please arrive safely and on time as there is “no late entry” to this class. 48 Hour Cancellation policy applies for this workshop. We will not be able to offer refunds for late cancellations or no-shows.

Join us for a transformative 30-hour in-person yoga workshop led by Patrick Beach, where you’ll embark on a journey to reshape your perspective on ‘advanced’ asanas. Dive deep into the world of advanced yoga postures and transitions during this enlightening 4-day workshop.
This comprehensive workshop will help demystify illusive postures and transitions, providing a new understanding of advanced asanas. You’ll explore the mechanics, anatomy, and physical requirements that will elevate your yoga practice to new heights.
Experience the power of updated alignment principles as we debunk common myths surrounding human movement. Enhance your asana acumen, refine your practice, and gain valuable insights.
Uncover the intricacies of advanced asanas, including the Awakening Yoga Blueprint postures and their diverse variations. Discover regressions, progressions, and the effective utilization of props, all designed to cater to practitioners of all skill levels.
Applied Anatomy takes a central role, deepening your comprehension of the mechanics and anatomy behind complex asanas. Learn to practice safely and efficiently.
This is a welcoming environment where every level is an opportunity for growth, making ‘advanced’ a journey of personal discovery rather than a measure of skill. This workshop is a call to all who wish to deepen their connection with yoga, exploring beyond physical limits to uncover strength, flexibility, and self-awareness within. It’s an invitation to shift perspectives, embrace challenges, and celebrate every step of your unique path. As an extra benefit, this course includes a digital educational resource to enrich your learning journey and support your progress.
