In The Asheville Community Yoga Courtyard

Join Amber and Luna and the Awakening Love Sisterhood under the light of the moon to share stories, songs, rituals and dance!

Something undeniably sacred happens when women tune into the rhythms of Mother Nature, especially the feminine qualities of the moon. During the full moon women often feel a bit more intuitive, receptive and creative. Some believe that it’s during this time of the month that women are able to unearth a deeper capacity to listen and share with greater clarity and authenticity. These are the attributes of the feminine that Amber and Luna hope to tap into and hold space for on this magical full moon night in Asheville Community Yoga’s courtyard.

During this moonlit gathering, you can look forward to connecting with

Self, Community, and Mother Nature by…

Supporting and Being Supported by other Women as we cycle through various phases of life, just as the moon does.

AWAKENING LOVE in our hearts and on this planet TOGETHER!!!

We hope to see you under the moon with the Awakening Love Sisterhood!

Yoga & The Menstrual Cycle w/ Annalise Yagya Jyoti
2023-07-15 13:30 - 15:30
at Asheville Community Yoga

Many of the practices and postures that you experience in a yoga class were NOT designed for those of us with menstrual cycles. This workshop will give you insight into the history of yoga, the 4 phases of the menstrual cycle, and how to integrate cyclical living knowledge into your practice to best support your health and vitality.

The layout of this workshop will depend on the energy of those who show up. You can expect to journal, to sit in sacred circle, have opportunities to share and connect, to learn about menstrual cycles, to learn about yoga, to move your body in gentle ways, and more. You will also receive a printed copy of Annalise’s Book “Yoga for Your Menstrual Cycle” as well as access to her online menstrual cycle offerings.

This workshop is lovingly guided by Annalise Yagya Jyoti who is a practicing Holistic Reproductive Health Practitioner (HRHP), & Fertility Awareness Educator (FAE). She provides menstrual cycle education and support for those from menarche to menopause. She teaches the Juistisse Method of Fertility Awareness which empowers cyclical beings to prevent pregnancy naturally, plan for pregnancy, and develop body literacy.

Dance Yourself Free w/ Sharah Saltzgiver
2023-07-22 10:15 - 12:15
at Asheville Community Yoga

Dance into organic embodiment and expression.

“So much pulls us off balance and away from our Self. It’s hard to think our way back into aligned presence since it’s thinking (Itself)((our mind’s protective patterns, conditioning, and memory)) that inadvertently knocks us off center. Dance offers a way to move through and around the reflexive mind to reconnect deep within. Our bodies are our elemental wisdom keepers. Conscious movement can tune us into our inner frequency.

What is your free way to move through the world/ interact with the world? What is your natural movement and presence vocabulary? How can you dance along the continuum of self-expression with ease? This workshop inspires inquiry and exploration through choreography, movement call & response, creative improv., writing prompts, and free dance in a supportive, accepting space.

All are welcome. No dance experience is needed. Simply show up as you are.”

Cost: $30
