Q&A with Gabriel Halpern
What led you to yoga?
Back in 1969, I learned some yoga in an acting class. I was already carrying back injuries from teenage athletics. So I was looking for a therapeutic intervention at that time (1969) although I didn't realize until I starting taking classes at a yoga ashram a year later …

WEEKEND INTENSIVE
Funtional Anatomy for Yoga with Marinda Stopworth
1.27.12 - 1.29.12
Knowledge of anatomy brings greater understanding of how the body moves so that we approach yoga poses from the inside out, rather than from the outside in.
Yoga is a powerful tool for keeping our bodies safe and our minds grounded. Marinda makes learning about anatomy fun, practical, and applicable to the practice and teaching of yoga. Methods of teaching will include lecture, asana, pranayama, and bio-feedback practice along with fun, interactive learning exercises.
This workshop is for yoga students, teachers, and yoga enthusiasts. This weekend-long session meets the Yoga Alliance’s required hours for the 200-hour teacher training.

Cascade Yoga Studio's winter schedule >
Studio closings due to inclement weather
If you suspect a class is cancelled because of serious weather conditions, please call the studio. If there's a cancellation, we'll put a recording on the Cascade Yoga Studio phone line (616.464.1610) one hour before start of class. Cancellations are determined independent of school closings.
Because conditions can vary from one side of town to the other, a teacher may not be able to make it to the studio. In this case, CYS will try its best to find a substitute to teach the class. As weather conditions change quickly, please check periodically through the day regarding the status of later day classes.
