In 30 days it will be SPRING!
Dear Students,
Over nearly 10 years, we have defined and redefined what our community – our family – means to all of us. We would like to share here the foundation upon which we stand that helps guide our choices today:
-
Community – connection, service, friendship, and family
-
Compassion – respect, kindness, belonging, caring, and giving back
-
Harmony – balance, gratitude, vision, and health
-
Integrity – honesty, ethics, authenticity, and safety
-
Excellence – sustainability, clarity, collaboration, organization, adaptability, and innovation
Our vision is to become a yoga sanctuary where you can find classes all day long, trainings to further your growth, special events and workshops, book clubs, retreats, ethically sourced products and instruments, and more. We aspire to be a place where you feel safe, special, and at peace. To read more about Ahimsa, please visit our website.

Special Events and Workshops this weekend!
Restorative Yoga Workshop (Virtual)
with Caitlin Coan
Sat: Feb 20 From: 6:00-8:00 PM
Location: on Zoom
Caitlin will take you through a full-body sequence for a complete body, mind, and spirit experience.
In restorative yoga, you maintain postures with numerous props for an extended period of time. With the help of the props and longer holds the practice is wonderfully nurturing as it stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, which gives you the opportunity to truly rest and relax.

Yoga Nidra
with Lindsay Lempa Aldape
Sun: Feb 21 From: 12:00-12:45 PM
Location: Ahimsa Elmhurst or on Zoom
Yoga Nidra is a form of self-inquiry that research shows to reduce insomnia, anxiety, depression, addiction, and PTSD. An intention will be formed for the practice that will bring you into harmony. Lindsay will guide you through this meditative experience while your body rests comfortably in savasana (final resting pose.) Even if you fall asleep, all layers of your being are reaping enormous benefits.
