Holaloha!
& Thank you for taking a few moments to take a look at some of what
we have to offer this month and through 2011...
So we just got back from our yoga immersion in Nosara, Costa Rica,
it was such a sweet experience!
Our small group of students were all amazing, and the Costa Rica Yoga Spa
is just a pleasure to stay at on all levels.
We definitely will be returning to the spa, probably in March,
and possibly also in July and August.
More about that later, but for now, you might want
to scroll down to see some of the highlights of our Costa journey.
You can also view a lot of pictures on my Facebook profile, too (see link, top right).
And also on our new group page: Paradise Retreats
All welcome to join!
JAMAICA YOGA JAM
Our next 200 hr yoga teacher immersion
will be at the Negril Yoga Centre, in Negril, Jamaica. It, too, is sure
to be an amazing experience, and a relatively quick and efficient way
to earn your yoga certification. We realize that many people
right now are experiencing financial stress and strain, and
so we are definitely willing to work with you on the price to make it
more feasible for you.
We have set up a page on our
website where you can learn more about it, and here 'tis:
Jamaica Yoga Immersion
& you can also contact me @ sunshinestateyoga@yahoo.com for more info.

SOUTHWEST FLORIDA YOGA TEACHER TRAINING
OUR 6-MONTH YOGA TEACHER TRAINING BEGINS 11.11.11
We will also be offering a 6 month program in the Naples area, beginning
the morning of 11.11.11 !! (and the rest of that day will be free to participate in other special activities)
The actual schedule for that will be Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, Nov. 11-14th.
This long weekend will give you a very good foundation for the next 6 months of our program,
which will require a commitment of one long weekend each month -- Friday evening, and full
days on Saturday and Sunday. We will also have one other day per month when we will meet,
and this will insure that we are fulfilling the 200 hr Yoga Alliance requirement.
The program will run through until May, 2012.
All students past and present receive deep discounts on our retreat programs.
MAUI WOWIE
(No Owie)
We are also currently putting together a yoga teacher training program in Maui
for the end of the year -- Nov. 27th-Dec.18th, 2011 that will coincide with
Krishna Das' Kirtan for Ram Dass in Maui. I will be posting more details
about this soon. We are looking for at least 7 students who wish to have the
experience of a lifetime that will ring in 2012 with a joyful sound.
are u 1 of the chosen 7 ? ; p

~*~ Namaste'! ~*~
Hola! Well, we're back from Costa Hermosa with much to share, and we invite to come to our "mini" this weekend at Happehatchee. The retreat will be from noon to 5 on Saturday, and noon to 5 on Sunday, and both days will include a potluck that will happen at 2 pm. We will be sharing several things, specifically the Yoga Swing (check out Sasha's website below for more in...fo.), a wonderful guided intention to clear and reset, kirtan, and a nice documentary called "Yoga of the Heart." The reteat will begin with a "Master Intensive" at noon, which will include Partner and Thai Bodywork. Potluck will be at 2 pm, and afterwards we'll learn all about the yoga swing and watch the film. Depending on who comes, we will do something different on Sunday afternoon. You can also just come one day. The cost for one day is $25 for a drop in, and $20 for YTT students, past and present. For two days, the cost is $40, and $35.
We also invite everyone to come for Bobbie's class at 9 am on Saturday, Salima's kids yoga class at 10:30 Saturday, and Eric's class at 9 am on Sunday.
♥ Pura Vida! Pura Vibra! ♥

Wabi Sabi Kirtan!
Wabi Sabi
Our next big kirtan event will be at Bala Vinyasa on Saturday, Sept. 24th...
Date: Sat 9/24/2011
Time: 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM
You are invited to an evening of music and sacred chanting with Naples' own Kirtan group, Wabi Sabi. Wabi Sabi's music, an eclectic sound ranging from original compositions to traditional devotional yoga music, will lift your spirits and fill you with joy!
You don't have to sing, just come with an open mind and an open heart to receive whatever the experience has in store for you.
The name Wabi Sabi was inspired by the Japanese art of seeing perfection in imperfection. Kirtan is generally performed in a call and response format.
