Jake will offer another great class, suitable for everyone, to support the Sierra Club Foundation/ Detroit ICO, an outdoor adventure and environmental education program of the Sierra Club, providing urban youth with positive outdoor experiences. We’ve invited them to send a representative to tell us a little more about their program and all that they do.

Jake is a Strongheart Teacher Trainee, who has finished his class work and is now offering these classes to get some practical teaching experience. Come and let him teach you and give him an in-person review (he’ll appreciate it). Bring a friend.

Bridget returns to Strongheart to guide us to a state of deep relaxation and meditation with the soothing sounds  of her chakra-tuned crystal singing bowls. The chakras are the seven energy centers within us; each representing a specific body/mind energy. As we settle back comfortably and let the vibration wash over us, Bridget will use her beautiful bowls and skill as a practitioner to rinse away the tension that binds up those energy centers. 

Karen and Pattie, both yoga teachers who like to get their hands in the dirt, are collecting ideas for how to grow nourishing wonderful food in small spaces. Michelle is an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach and she’s adding her expertise in nutrient-dense foods that are the recipe for good health. Together we’re excited to share a fun learning day at the beginning of the growing season for all of us to know more, grow more, and find our vibrant health recipe.

Tuning into Muladhara Chakra (our root chakra) is about feeling the strong, supportive connection of the ground beneath our feet. We’ll practice to bring our awareness to how we grow like trees by beginning at our roots. No experience necessary. Free or by donation (for the Nature Conservancy).

Our Easter morning class will be a celebration of the reawakening we see in the world around us and feel in ourselves as the warmer days arrive. We’ll practice a gentle awakening flow of movement to get everything moving and release the doldrums of winter. Free or by donation (to the Nature Conservancy).

Award winning Australian musicians  (14 x music awards in 4 countries) and sound healers: Peter D. Harper and Bobbi Llewellyn-Harper will bring us a workshop about the ancient Australian Aboriginal wind instrument called the “Didgeridoo” (Yidaki / Mako), followed by a sound bathing experience. Register early!

Bring your “good but not getting used” over to the studio and after Jen Senyk’s class on Sunday morning we’ll swap treasures while we have some chai or coffee.

We’ll donate anything that doesn’t get claimed to Turning Point Macomb’s Second Hand Rose.

This class is designed to help you create and teach chair yoga classes that are effective, accessible, and safe for different levels of students. The focus will be on using your knowledge and creativity. Working in person, in our studio, gives you a chance to see and feel the poses, ask questions as they arise, and hear what fellow students ask or add.

This course will qualify for a Certificate of Completion & 6 hours of CEU for Yoga Alliance registered teachers. 

Our hips, knees, and feet are all working together, all the time. We’ll focus on improving our foot strength, learning healthy knee movement, and finding ways to keep our muscles of movement (big and small) strong, stable, and mobile.  

Anyone is welcome to practice for free. If you’re able to make a donation, proceeds from this class will be donated to Sierra Club Foundation/ Detroit ICO.

Bridget, a Strongheart favorite, will bring her chakra-tuned bowls to recalibrate our nervous systems, allowing us to set our intentions for the coming year with minds in harmony. Early registration strongly encouraged!

A peaceful quiet practice to welcome the Christmas evening and day of festivities. If your day has been busy with last minute holiday details, give yourself an hour to tune in and fill your own cup with quiet energy.

With special guest Bridget McCloskey-Baird — In this class, Bridget will use Chakra-Tuned Quartz Crystal Bowls to connect with each chakra's essence, bringing alignment and balance to the entire body. Sound Healing also recalibrates our nervous systems and brings the mind to a state of harmony through the healing frequencies of each bowl. $25

We’ll dive deeper into the psychophysical-spiritual energy of each chakra; the practices that enliven them; and the ways our practice can bring awareness and freedom to our inner energies. 

This class is open to all: teachers, future teachers, or just those looking to expand their knowledge. These hours can be applied to the Strongheart Yoga Deepen Your Practice 50HR or 200HR Teacher Training schedule to begin in September. And will qualify for 3 contact CEUs with Yoga Alliance.

Come and find your own warrior’s heart. We’ll seek our own inner courage with our practice, as we honor those whose courage gave us peace and freedom. Walk-ins welcome, preregistration encouraged.

Come join us as we celebrate 13 years of Strongheart and the opening of City Yoga Warren. Both of the sister studios will be open to everyone. Enjoy light refreshments, a fun activity, and our vibrant community. All are welcome.

Sandra Aloia will dedicate this Sunday evening practice to what we all have in common—our source of life. You might share this gentle practice with your mother or ask someone who calls you Mom to come share the practice. Or you might just take this quiet evening to contemplate the power and influence of your first human connection, whether she’s with you or not.

We’ll talk about different causes for sciatic pain; practice a mindful, targeted yoga practice to overcome it; learn key actions in yoga poses to get results; learn some do’s and don’ts for sciatic relief and key poses to avoid; and an approach to long-term yoga practice for sciatica prevention.

Participants will get a printed yoga plan to take home with them.
