FEBRUARY 2017 NEWSLETTER

Dear Yogis,


"The important thing is this; to be able, at any moment to sacrifice what we are for what we could become"
Charles Du Bos



We are blown away how fast this month has flown by and now we are already embarking on the second month of 2017. We can all feel the winds of change in the air but also the strong, courageous voices who are standing up for core values, love and empathy. We felt so much inspiration during the month of January, the amount of focus and dedicated practice and all the kindness that we are blessed with sharing here everyday at Earth Yoga.

Through your help we received and shipped off 4 car loads of warm clothes, shoes and boots for the refugees struggling with the cold in Greece. Our dear friend Almu initiated the project and Earth Yoga and Lucky Bodies became the collection point for about 2 weeks . We were overwhelmed by the amount of clothes and shoes that were brought in - Thank You !

 

We also hosted a Yin donation class with Mirjam Wagner who beautifully led us through 2 hours of stillness, chanting and Yin poses. All the donations ( almost 500 euros ) went to the Organization Ca'n Gaza here on the island.   Again a heartfelt Thank You for your generosity and Mirjam for her care and love.

We will continue with the path of Giving throughout February. This will be through our mobile care and donation box. We are collaborating again with Lucky Bodies & Happy Souls and together we will organize that the donation box moves from a different location each week for 8 weeks. We hope to raise as much money as we can to share with Dignity 360 another organization here on the island who work closely with the ground aid in Greece for Refugees. Next week that Box will be at the Lucky Bodies studios and we would love if you could not only give a small donation but also take a photo of you with the box #mallorcahumanity and share on the Mallorca Humanity Facebook page.   After the 8 weeks are up we plan to host a one time charity event in April where we will weave Music, Yoga, Drama, Photography and Dance in an evening to benefit the refugees. For more information please do get in touch with either Earth Yoga or Lucky Bodies & Happy Souls.
 

This month we are excited to host Yoga Teacher Anabel on Saturday 11 February for a Backbends Workshop.   Anabel has taught all over the world and most recently lived in Costa Rica where she taught both Vinyasa Yoga and other styles of yoga.   She is excited to share her practice with you with the influence of Tai Chi principles and moving deep into the spine and deeper into backbends.


 

David Lurey and Mirjam Wagner will be hosting their advanced Teacher Training here at Earth Yoga from Saturday 4 until Saturday 18 February. All of our classes will remain as normal, there just may be some more activity in the studio.


We have added an extra class to our schedule starting on Tuesday 8 February at 12pm. Jeanne Lurie will be teaching a
