Restore and Breathe

"Yoga is unloosening the knots of prana."   -David Frawley   

"(There has been a recent) shift in yoga from a lot of movement to stabilization. Asana means seat, (after all)."    -Rod Stryker

 

I am proud to share that as of this Tuesday, May 5th, I will begin teaching at Metamorphose Yoga Studio in Kilauea, every Tuesday and Thursday, from 6-7:30. I have been seeking a means to offer a class that holds the space for one to rest, digest, practice pranayam, yoga nidra, restorative yoga, and mantra and I have found it!

So come take a seat and get loose with me!

Rest and Digest with an upcoming Yoga Nidra Workshop!

Are you feeling fatigued? Busy? Stressed? Looking to get that second wind and perhaps capitalize on that new-newness of the new year? Are you okay with listening, taking a few notes, lying down, listening, and probably sleeping? Yeah, I thought so. Yoga Nidra IS for you!

SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 8TH, from 11am-1pm, at Crossfit Kappa, I will be leading a workshop that will allow you to do just that- listen, take notes, absorb, rest, and digest. (And probably sleep)

The best part is that during the practice, (while you will be lying down, probably sleeping), you will be meditating and getting more relaxation and rest than you might get in a full night's sleep! And to top it off, you will also be planting a seed of intention (sankalpa) for something that you are deeply committing to achieving.

Intrigued? I hope so. Yoga Nidra has been the catalyst behind many sankalpa's (intentions) in my life. In fact, a sankalpa led me to become a yoga teacher many years ago in order for me to be here and teach this very workshop.

I am thrilled to bring this beautiful practice to Kauai. Come and experience it for yourself. 

There is no experience necessary- all levels are welcome. Bring something to write with and in, a yoga mat, and a yoga blanket or towel for comfort. 

Cost is $25 and pre-registration is not required but highly recommended. Please contact Rachel @ info@rachelpianopooley.com or 808.754.4040 with any questions and to register. See flier below for more details.

Aloha, Kauai!

I will be teaching at a new location, starting next Sunday, December 7th, from 9-10:15 AM. Hatha Yoga will now be offered at the new-new CrossFit Kapaa, right next to Kuhio Motors, off the main highway. Same, great yoga at a new location!

Come to CrossFit Kapaa's Grand Opening this Sunday, details below. Stay for the raffles and prizes, including a free class by yours truly.

I am very excited to support the CrossFit community and Charlotte in her new business endeavor.

New Beginnings

I am very excited to begin teaching yoga on this beautiful island. After flying over from Oahu to visit my family for a decade, my Husband and I decided that it was time to do it and just move already. Having taught in both studios and schools for 5 years on Oahu, I welcome the change of teaching on Kauai, in a new space, and am looking forward to working with YOU! So, Pssst!  Spread the word. Aloha!
