A Star is Born
Sun City West, AZ
Part One: Friday November 15th 6-8pm. Talk on the constitutions & gunas. $34.95
Part Two: Saturday November 16th 12pm-4pm. Intensive on the planets and their influences. Participants will receive their Vedic Astrology Chart as a tool to look at as the planets are discussed. $64.95
Just like the moon has an impact on the ebb and flow of the tide, the planets and their placement in the sky have a direct influence on you. On the day you were born, your physical constitution ‘code’ was written in the stars and their impact is revealed in the way we walk through this life.
Discover the invisible or subtle energies that influence both our physical and emotional constitution.
First, join Jeffrey as he shares how to work with your Ayurvedic physical constitution (kapha, pitta, vata) and how you are affected by nature’s three fundamental forces or gunas. Learn how the gunas can be a valuable tool on your spiritual path.
This two-part event can be combined or experienced individually. Mark your calendars now and prepare for this limited seating event.

‘An Unexamined Life is Not Worth Living’
Zen Yoga Training Module Oct 2019 – Feb 2020
Sun City West, AZ
There are three components to any true yoga practice:
Effort. Self-Study. And Surrender.
In order to grow, we have to leave our voice of laziness behind and take the efforts to become what we desire. Most of us do not desire to be out of shape, have extreme emotional ups and downs nor a turbid mind that twists and turns. This takes effort.
To discover what we are doing that gets in our OWN way, we need pure self reflection. Self study requires reflection, but it also includes the study of our physical and energetic body as well as environment.
In surrendering to both the present moment and the unknown, we reduce the stress of uncertainty naturally occurring in this world.
All three of these components seem easy enough, however most of us need a teacher or guide to take us through the process of embedding the practice into our lives.Both an art and an exact science, yoga places the ability to manage one’s emotions, mind and body in one’s own hands.
If you are looking to transform into a higher version of yourself, then our Fall/Winter intensive is just what you need. Chock full of asana, pain management, inspiration, realizations, strength and relaxation – you won’t want to miss this one!
Early Bird!! Enroll now and enjoy complimentary unlimited yoga at our studio (or online) from now until the beginning of the October 2019 session.

Open Enrollment: Zen Yoga 200 Hour Course
Sun City West, AZ
Every Tuesday, 11:00 am – 1:00 pm
Today yoga is at the heart of many fitness programs. Yet yoga is bigger than physical fitness – it encompasses the mind and self along with the physical body. Zen Yoga’s foundation combines the art of yoga with the science of qigong for a better balanced person on all levels. In olden days, intro to yoga was 7 years (the amount of time it took for all the cells in the body to exchange old for new). The idea of transforming oneself occurs on a cellular level, letting go of old patterns and outdated ideas to welcome in a fresh start. Yoga is often promoted as a specific number or hours course. This is to upgrade the transformation process for a more intentional outcome – a newer better you! YES – some are here to learn to teach others, BUT what everyone here has in common is the yogic journey itself. This course is designed to allow anyone to start at any time – we all know life waits for no one – it simply keeps moving, and it is up to us to jump on for the ride!
