Program Details

For all levels.

Share yoga teacher and massage therapist Lena Madsen’s deep knowledge of the eight limbs of yoga and the body’s energetic pathways in a summer week of heart-opening yoga practice. Slow down with asanas, breath observation, deep relaxation, and meditation.

  • Can be true to yourself
  • Connect deeply and fully with others
  • Experience gratitude for all you have
  • Have a richer experience of life
  • See the magic of life in each day.

Come explore how you can encourage your own heart to open so you can live, act, and speak from a place of love and compassion.
