SAMSARAFEST 2020 - Healing Festival

What to expect:
The common definition of Vinyasa is ‘breath synchronized movement’
This class welcomes beginners as well as long practiced yogis! That is why it is called ‘yinyasa’ to make it a little slower and meditative, creating flexibility in the mind as well as the body.
I welcome you to come focus on alignment and meet movement with breath. Experience a whole new relaxation through the engagement of your entire body and release into savasana for a meditation at the end of the session.

*Some sessions might use strobe lights, some are silent, and yet others are very loud. Step aside if you personally find either of these experiences uncomfortable.

What to bring:
Please bring a water bottle, warm socks, yoga mat, writing journal, and pen.
If part of your practice, you may also bring seat cushion, blanket, mala beads (for self or for exchange) 

Part of our festival’s connection tradition includes exchanging gifts or items that you bring to the festival. (rocks, stones, bead bracelets, etc.)

Experience level:
All ages and experience levels welcomed.

If the session has a theme of silent meditation or sound healing, please help us maintain the quiet atmosphere and decorum. 

Things to consider:
The season is Spring which means the weather is still a bit unpredictable. Please dress in layers.

Please silence your phones at all times and step to the back of the room if you need to engage with it. We would however recommend an unplugged experience if you are able.

The festival brings a multitude of experiences and packs a tight schedule. We encourage you to take breaks as needed. Remember to stay hydrated and please connect with festival volunteers if you have questions.
