as always, free to members!
Using the safest mat Pilates, we will have a delicious yoga latte for our core. We will strengthen our hearts and bellies for an hour. We will deepen our asanas by using smooth massage stones for steadiness or stira. Lastly we will experience warm stones on the torso in shavasana. Ahhhhhh! Discussion of props from nature will conclude our sacred time.
Tea following!!!

Enter through the south gate
Come practice in our peaceful, renovated turn-of-the century barn, that was once part of a beet farm in rural Wheat Ridge, Colorado.
Also, the owner of Cat’s Paw Yoga, Lisa Griffin Seidel RYT, has a few new zafus available and a cool new label!
A translation of zafu is a cushion for sitting, where za means sitting or “sit” and fu means cushion, bolster, a long pillow or cushion that provides support or strengthen, reinforce, boost, fortify, renew, and support.
I have come to appreciate the value of using a bolster (zafu) when coming to a place of quiet in my yoga practice. The bolsters pictured here are locally hand-crafted, and stuffed with traditional organic buckwheat hulls. Size is approximately 15″ in diameter. We can add dried lavender.
