Title: Divine Play in the Great Outdoors with Brenna Padesky & Rikard Skogberg- June 25-27
Location: Heathen Hill
Description: Lila (or Leela) is a Sanskirt word which literally translates to mean “play”. Discover how a sense of play (and a sense of humor) can put the joy back into your asana practice. Whether it’s standing on your feet, standing on your hands, working by yourself, or working with a fellow yogi, lightness in your heart and smile on your face can take you miles in understanding how your practice on the mat ripples out to create fulfillment in your life.
Join us for a delicious weekend away from the city. We will meet up late Friday morning and road trip upstate to Heathen Hill in Franklin, NY. Once there, enjoy a weekend of sweaty morning vinyasa with Rikard, evening slow flow and meditation with Brenna, and a taste of Thai Yoga massage threaded throughout. In your free time you can jump in the swimming hole, chase the resident chickens, or catch up on your reading.

Thanks

Dear Maura,
First, please give my best regards to Bjoern and thank him for his kind endorsement of Heathen Hill.
The “Divine Play” weekend is being taught by Brenna Padesky. I will post the costs for the weekend as soon as she forwards them to me.
The Yoga and Wine Tasting Weekend that I am teaching and that Jill and Bjoern usually attend is June 11 – 13. The price is $375 per person in a double room or $450 for a single.
(This weekend is more expensive than most of the others because of the fabulous wines!)
There is a registration form on the website but please don’t hesitate to email me if you have any questions.
Hope to see you on Heathen Hill .
Susan “Lip” Orem
