Thought I'd share a hilarious article in the Boston Herald on Cambridge's new parking tickets, illustrated with suggested yoga poses.

I think the best bit is the last paragraph:

"Somerville has a little less of a zen yoga vibe," said city spokesman Michael Meehan. "I don't think we'd be having our parking attendants doing yoga poses ... We're open to putting local art on all sorts of materials. Somerville is home to more artists per capita than any other city in New England. But we're not going to be switching over to a division of Tantra & Parking."

I just got a chance to try out the new yoga place in Davis, Samara Yoga: http://samarayogastudio.com/

Small class, nice music, peaceful space, great movement and excellent, friendly teacher. Also they have a special for new students $25 for two weeks of classes, which I took advantage of.

Thought I'd post in case someone was looking for a new yoga venue :)

I saw the other day that there is a new yoga place where yoga in the square was. Does anyone know their website information? A google search came up empty.

Thanks!

Yoga studio news: Om City Yoga at 2404 Mass Ave (at Harvey St/ Cameron Ave/ bike path) in North Cambridge closed at the end of January. The space is now taken by a (mainly) south shore yoga studio chain Open Doors Power Yoga Studios http://www.opendoors7.com/

Open Doors Power Yoga is having a grand opening at this North Cambridge location on Saturday February 20, offering free hot power yoga classes all day Saturday. The schedule is 8-9:30 AM Power Yoga, 10-11:30 AM Power Yoga-Beginners, 12:00-1:15 PM Power Yoga, 5:00-6:30 PM Power Yoga-Moderate.

I've never tried hot power yoga before, so maybe I'll give it a shot.

There's a new yoga studio opening in Union Square.  Today they are having an open house with free classes.  It is located above Bloc 11 Cafe, and is co-owned by firefighters Blanca Alcaraz (also one of the teachers) and Charlie Houghton.  Check them out.....I think they will be very successful.

Does anyone know of a local yoga studio that has a class in the Svaroopa style yoga? After a little searching, I found a place in Roslindale. As nice as the place looks, a two hour long round-trip commute on the MBTA would sort of defeat the purpose of the yoga.

Or do any local places have yoga classes similar to the Svaroopa style? I know very little about yoga aside from a class in college where we did Svaroopa. All I know is that my back felt awesome for 3 months and I loved that most of the class was spent lying on blankets. So any recommendations for a local place that teaches a style of yoga that's relaxing and helps the spine would also be appreciated!

Hey guys. I'm new to this community and have lived in Davis for a couple of months. I've just started writing a blog for Massage Therapy Works in Davis and I thought you guys might be interested in it.

The blog is about natural living and holistic health care in the Boston area, and since MTW is in Davis, a lot of the entries are going to focus on places around the area. I've already written an entry about Cambridge Naturals (Porter, I guess, but close!) and O2 Yoga.

Here's the link if you guys want to check it out. http://www.massagetherapyworks.com/_blog/Boston_Healing_Blog

PS. I love this neighborhood. Best place to live in Boston by far!

While renovations continue at the armory bldg at 191 Highland for a community arts center, a small movement studio has quietly opened inside. I've been there several times and like the space, the teachers, & the convenience - close enough to Davis/Porter to walk/bike. They're having trouble with their web site but this link should work for more info:

http://web.me.com/movingcelebrations/Moving_Celebrations/Studio.html

It's called Moving Celebrations, offers yoga, nia, and something called core hooping (wha? could explain all those hula hoops in the corner).

So I'm skeptical, but looking to try Yoga out. Two of my sisters swear by it, and it seems interesting enough. So pretty much I am looking for info, or assurances of yoga studios near Davis. I am unsure of the terminology but a "normal" begining style is certainly for me, not sure of this O2 style and such. I have extra time now and I'm open minded, just not informed.

Kundalini?

Hi all--

I think I'm experiencing a Kundalini awakening (sadly, not a Kundera awakening) and I've heard a lot of horror stories about what can happen if you don't know what you're doing. And I don't know what I'm doing. Can someone recommend someone locally who knows lots about this? And maybe a Kundalini yoga class?

If you know a lot about it but don't deal with it professionally, feel free to reply anyway.

Thanks!

Hey all, so my head is filled with too much stuff these days and I just can't get enough sleep, I'm tense all the time (according to my wife) and I just need to calm down! 

Any idea if there's a TM center around Davis?  I need peace!

Thanks

ps: I couldn't find this topic via tags, nor through ljfind..

So there's a ton of yoga places around here but what's a good one within walking distance of Davis Sqr. preferably towards Teele Sqr. that has a regular yoga class around 7PM or latter (cult free preferred)?

What are good places to get running shoes and bikes around here that are open at night?

There are several places around Davis Square and Porter square that have Yoga -- I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a good place to go.

It must have been relatively recently, but I walked past the Dahn Yoga on Holland, and the space was closed and back up for rent. Good riddance to the cult. I guess they lost that lawsuit brought by the family of a woman who died while on one of their retreats.

I wonder what will go in there?
[identity profile] philipph.livejournal.com
I noticed the past few days (maybe all week?) the "Dahn Yoga and Healing" (or whatever it's called) location has had a giant "Space Available" sign in the window, and I haven't seen anyone inside.
I may just have been going past at different times from usual, but in the past it's felt like there's someone in there all the time.
Looks almost abandoned now.
Does anyone know what happened, if anything?
Not complaining, or anything. I've never been there, so in principle I wouldn't miss it if it disappeared. And I gather there's a creepy cult-ish vibe about it in general (though my understanding is that some locations are far creepier than others).
