July 8-10, 2011 – Tzahi Moscovitz

Title: Tzahi Moscovitz
Location: Heathen Hill

Description

Spend a weekend of serenity found outside of concrete NYC- the Catskills, yoga, garden grown organic food, and fun!

Tzahi will lead the 3 yoga classes where each session will complement the others to provide a complete and well-rounded weekend of yoga- forward bends, back bends, inversions, restorative and pranayama. The combination of Heathen Hill’s peace and beauty, and a comprehensive yoga study will provide an experience that will leave you feeling integrated and enlivened.

About Tzahi

Tzahi Moskovitz became certified to teach the YogaWorks method in the first Certification to be held in New York, after his original training in the ISHTA tradition with Alan finger. In his teaching, Tzahi combines vigor, flow, and precision, using the full vocabulary of asana to create a practice that is safe while at the same time, playful and adventurous.

He is directly influenced by the flow and strength of the Ashtanga series and the alignment, intelligence and awareness of the Iyengar tradition. He is inspired by the teaching of Mary Dunn, Genny Kapuler and Mark Whitwell. His training and experiences as a medic provide Tzahi with a deep and practical understanding of anatomy as it relates to movement and asana.

June 10-12, 2011 – Paula Lynch

Title: Paula Lynch
Location: Heathen Hill

Description

Join Paula Lynch for a fun weekend of yoga, deep relaxation and fresh garden delights this June! We will practice intensely in the morning and afternoon and eat some incredible, home cooked meals in the evening. Our morning practices will include asana and pranayama and will ask you to push your limits a bit, to explore and play; the evening practices will include inversions, restorative and yoga nidra.

Practicing in the beauty and peace of the mountains, especially at Heathen Hill, helps us access the playful and curious side of the body-mind complex, eventually leading us to that quieter and more peaceful inner space that can be difficult to abide in without this type of exploration. You are invited to come explore and play in your practice and nourish yourself with good food, rest and relaxation on this weekend retreat!

About Paula

Paula Lynch is a Yoga Works Certified Instructor affiliated with the Yogaworks Teacher Training programs. Her teaching style is influenced largely by the meditative flow and heat of Astanga yoga and the precision and playfulness of Iyengar yoga.

She studies with Genny Kapuler and Alison West, and has been able to shape her experience of the world through her asana practice. She studies anatomy and kinesiology and applies this knowledge to her understanding and teaching of yogasana in her classes through breath and alignment.

Paula’s teaching style expresses that yoga is an incredible technique that can give us access to the layers of our physical and energetic bodies that can only be experienced through patient and intentional practice. She practices yoga as a form of devotion, prayer and self-study and understands yoga as so much more than physical – it is cellular, mental, intellectual and spiritual involving our entire being.
We’ll start with a one hour practice late Friday afternoon followed by dinner.

Merav teaches Vinyasa flow classes emphasizing movement to breath connection, muscle strengthening, and increased flexibility and balance.

From Garden to Plate: A Weekend Yoga Retreat with Vivekan – July 30-August 1 2010

Title: From Garden to Plate: A Weekend Yoga Retreat with Vivekan
Location: Heathen Hill
Description: A blissful weekend of yoga and seasonal living. When not practicing invigorating and restorative yoga sessions with the seasoned yogi, we’ll be practicing yoga off-the-mat–eating mostly organic, seasonal meals derived locally, straight from the property!

It’s a wonderful opportunity to de-stress in the fresh country air, and immerse yourself in your yoga practice. Not to mention indulge in nourishing, nutritious and delicious seasonal cuisine! Yoga practitioners seek balance in the body. Eating local, seasonal foods helps guide us into greater harmony with the earth’s natural cycles; and therefore brings us healthy equilibrium.

Check out our blog re-cap from last year to learn more and browse pictures!

About Vivekan

Vivekan is the founder and director of Park Slope, Brooklyn’s Bodhisattva Yoga. He was certified under Jayadeva, a direct disciple of Swami Satchidananda. “I have been especially inspired by teachers from Tibet, China, India & the West: H.H., the Dalai Lama, the late Sifu Sheng Yen, the late Sermey Khensur Lobsang Tharchin Rinpoche, Khyongla Rato Rinpoche & the clear-thinking empiricist, Serge Ledan, MD. Vivekan’s exposure to eclectic yoga styles, along with his home practice, has led to his unique approach to instruction, which he terms as Inspired FlowsTM. “My Inspired FlowsTM differ from class to class – I never come in with a script; it is based on the premise that fun and effort are not mutually exclusive.”

Vivekan has been featured on MTV Brazil and Channel 9 News, and inside the pages of Time Out NY and The New York Times.
