The moon and sun are in a constant dance with the earth and on Monday, August 7, 2017 they will line up in such a way to bring a partial eclipse to Seattle. For a few minutes at 10:20 am the moon will obscure the majority of the sun; an event that occurs only every 30+ years.
You are invited to join us for a community viewing and All-Levels yoga practice in the shadow of the sun. We will gather together at the studio by 10:00 am. We will walk with our mats (leaving our valuables locked in the studio) two blocks north to Seven Hills Park. Once there we will set up our mats, put on our solar viewing glasses and watch the eclipse. Once the sun begins to emerge from its hiding place behind the moon we will turn to our own shadow play with a yoga practice in the park. We will be complete and return to the studio by 11:30 am.
Schedule:
- Monday, August 21, 2017
- 10:00 am 11:30 am
Tuition: Regular drop-in class pricing
***Seattle Yoga Arts will provide solar viewing glasses, but you are welcome to bring your own.
***Please arrive early, as the group will depart the studio promptly at 10 am.
About the Instructor: Rainey
Rainey first encountered yoga as a teenager, discovered her passion for it in her mid-20’s and began teaching more than 17 years ago. For most of her life she has been curious about the great mysterious dance of life and death and has been drawn towards the traditions that help deepen and expound upon it. Her personal journey has given her a sincere appreciation for the tenacity of the body, mind and heart when given space and support to renew and recover.
Rainey offers Living Presence Yoga & Somatic Awareness: an invitation to move with deep attention and curiosity, pausing often to listen to what is currently arising and orienting ourselves in the larger context nature. She is devoted to co-creating a space of wild inquiry with her students. She is deeply influenced by her on-going studies in Continuum, Meditation and Trauma Release. Her decade as a certified Anusara yoga Teacher lays the foundation for her teaching. Rainey is a C-IAYT and E-RYT 500 certified yoga teacher and offers private therapeutic yoga sessions.
