Yoga Classes

Joni teaches an eclectic style of hatha yoga that combines flowing
sequences with attention to body alignment and breath. Sometimes
class is a little more gentle & restorative, sometimes more energizing.
Joni always takes requests - so if you wish to work on hips, shoulders,
or to focus more on your breathwork, let her know and she will build it
into the class. Also, if you need to modify poses, she will help you find
the right variation for your body. Always honor yourself!

Meditation Workshops

    Meditation is a way to access your inner self by quieting your
    busy mind and focusing your awareness on the present moment.
    Meditation can lower blood pressure, reduce chronic pain,
    improve muscle response time, relax the diaphragm and internal
    organs, increase breathing efficiency and lung capacity, reduce
    anxiety and stress, and increase recognition of compulsive
    behavior patterns.
    In Joni's workshops, we'll practice several different meditation
    and breath techniques (with stretching breaks in between). Class
    will end with Yoga Nidra, a deep guided relaxation.
    Whether you're new to meditation or experienced, join us and
    enjoy the positive energy and feeling of community when we
    meditate together.

    NEW Partner Meditation Workshop
    (for couples, partners, friends,
    mother/daughter, etc.)

    Sustaining healthy, fulfilling relationships (of any kind) can be
    challenging, especially during times of stress. Do you need to re-
    connect with your spouse, partner, friend, mother, father or
    other family member? Or maybe you're just looking for
    something fun to do together to create a stronger bond?  Come
    to the Partner Meditation & Pranayama workshop. Learn to
    relax together and experience a deeper connection through
    breathwork and simple meditation techniques. This workshop is
    designed to allow you to quietly experience and appreciate
    each other's own unique presence, without allowing words to
    get in the way of your connection. Joni Sturgill, R.Y.T. has been
    practicing meditation for nearly 8 years and teaches meditation
    workshops in the Pittsburgh area.
