​Join us for a one of kind Tapping Workshop where you will learn a technique to free your mind from excessive worry. 

With self compassion, we will explore the tendency we all have to future trip and cause ourselves needless anxiety in the present moment. 

We will use tapping to clear any familial and cultural ties we have to this encouraged habit. And then we will have fun exploring a real alternative to this worry mind loop that will give you more energy and inspiration. We will use the power of your creative mind and the gift of your feelings to create the future you actually want! 

You will learn to use your imaging faculties for your highest good.

A lot of people think that you can come in to yoga, do it for a year and then just automatically be amazing at it and you can do all of these really amazing postures! For some of us this could be the case, but for many of us it is not! 

It's not always about the asana, the pose- it's about the mind and the breath- and the 8 Limbs of Yoga (which we will dive into in another blog!). Doing yoga is just one part of the bigger picture of yoga- it is a way of living. Living a peaceful and happy life! 

Yoga being a practice is somedays you can touch your toes- others you can barely get there. That's a practice. It's beautiful because everyday our body and our mind are constantly changing. We are constantly evolving.  Growing. Expanding. And sometimes we take a couple of steps back and think "what is going on here". Yoga gives you that opportunity to come on to your mat and sit. Tap into yourself. Listen to what is going on in your body and mind and all those layers that make us us. 

You could do amazing at asana yet you are not grounded in your mind. It's a practice. You have to work to find that stability and groundedness. 

The word yoga means to yoke. The union. The union of the mind and the body. The union of ourselves and the outside world. The union. One. Yoking everything. In yoga we are yoking our mind and body through the power of breathing- pulling us into the present moment.

When we are living in the past we are living at a place of fear- thinking about what has happened before and sometimes a sadness comes from that fearful place. When we live in the future we are worrying about what is going to happen to us. Something we do not have control over. When we live in the present moment, we can live in peace. We can be happy because we are not thinking about what happened in the past or what will happen in the future. We are here- now. Be here. Be now! 

That is what we strive for in a yoga class. When we are breathing we are in this moment and we cannot be anywhere else when we are thinking about our breath. It's a beautiful thing because it helps us release those attachments to the past and the future. The fear and worry. It teaches us to be less reactive. And that is a practice. You can do all the yoga in the world and still be reactive. But you become less reactive and take the time to fully engage in the present moment. It can change your life! 

If you do yoga once a week you can change your mind...
If you do yoga twice a week you can change your body...
If you do yoga everyday you can change your life...

Yoga has done this for me. Now like I keep saying- it's a practice. There are days and moments where I am reactive and where fear and worry try and take ahold of me- but I roll my mat out, move on my mat, and get back in that present moment with my breath, my body, my mind, and soul.

Yoga isn't just a physical practice- it's a lot of things. Like walking down the street being kind to those you meet! It is LIFE! I want everyone to experience that! So come try out a class for free at Horizon!

While we love to have a fun and free spirit here at Horizon Training Center, we do have to follow proper etiquette to respect those we are practicing/training with as well as the space we are in.

• Dress appropriately for class.
  
  • Clothes you can move and groove in!
    
  • Shoes for Martial Arts & Fitness classes.
    
• Remove or wipe shoes off (dedicated training shoes are recommended).
  
  • We clean our floors all the time, but dirty shoes coming in to the space can bring germs and yucky mess.
    
  • When entering the studio- please keep to the far right wall while walking. This will help keep our space clean together.
    
• Martial artist- bow when entering the training hall.
  
• Set your intent. Silence phones. Be mindful of your peers.
  
• We love children, however- they can be a distraction for those attending class beside you.
  
  • Because of this, we ask that no children under the age of 12 attend class.
    
• Be on time. If late, wait for instructor to invite you into class.
  
• If you arrive for class before the last class has ended, please be prepared to wait outside if it is yoga. The sign on the door will read "class in session" if you should not enter while class is taking place. Please be mindful that the end of a yoga class is savasana. This is most students favorite time where they can completely let go and relax.
  
• Pick up after class. Put equipment/props/etc back in their place.
  
  • If you are unsure where things go, ask your instructor.
    
• Inform instructor of known injuries prior to starting class.
  
• Train safely and intelligently. Ego stops at the door.
  
• Food and drinks are allowed in the lobby. Water is allowed in the studio.
  
  • If you are bringing a snack, meal, etc with you to consume before or after class- please eat this in the lobby area (check in) and pick up any crumbs left behind.
