Time to share something special ! The saying goes, “When the student is ready, the teacher appears.” It’s true! Oh so many years ago I was blessed to have Lennessa Shantaya appear as my yoga teacher. What a beautiful journey she led me to. Tonight, it occurred to me that I’d been blessed again, only this time it read this way….when the teacher is ready, the student appears. I want to thank my vinyasa class for holding space with me tonight as I/we celebrated my friend Holly Taylor, a newly certified 200hr yoga teacher and my very first student from when I was completing my training back in the day. I would not be the teacher I am today had it not been for Holly appearing when she did. Watching her practice develop over the years has been such a joyful experience and has helped me grow as a teacher. I was so thrilled when she told me she was going to pursue her teaching certification. And tonight when she came to class having DONE IT, I could not have been more proud!!!!! “A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle!” Thank you Lennessa and thank you Holly! ❤️ Namaste!

10/02/2023

Birdie, the yoga dog and Lucky Stone mascot, was back to class this morning! Those fancy dog show dogs have got nothin’ on this sweetheart. Her pedigree?…..PEACE! And she’s got the nama-STAY command down pat!She brings her lovely Birdie-bliss to the space and theeeee real expert at Savasana! We love you Birdie-dog!

09/21/2023

Great class tonight! Felt good to be back in the studio stirring up some good energy. Thank you yoginis!

09/20/2023

Tonight’s the night, Wednesday, 9/20/23, at 6:00pm (SIX PM) we get back to some Basics with a vinayasa class at Lucky Stone Yoga! It’s a full class at this point, but if you’re still interested, contact me (DM or email at [email protected]) and on a week by week basis I can let you know if we can squeeze you in. This class will run to the week before Thanksgiving. More class/workshop postings to come so stay tuned!
See you at the studio!

HELLOOOOOO AGAIN AT LAST!!!!!!! Tonight (9/14/23) is a NEW MOON….perfect timing for NEW THINGS HAPPENING! Quick update, I am free of sling, cast, braces and the like. I’ve had enough X-Rays to hold a glow for a good long while! I’m a few weeks into physical therapy and building back strength and flexibility in my wrists and elbow slowly but surely. I have to make modifications to my own practice, but that’s the beauty of YOGA…you never have to give it up, it just changes like EVERYTHING CHANGES! So with all that, I hope you’ll practice with me at Lucky Stone Studio, Main Street, Ovid, this fall.

I currently have an ongoing class MONDAY MORNINGS at 9:30am. This is primarily a YIN YOGA class, but we’re starting to turn it up a notch and add some standing and balancing poses for strength as well as some gentle “flow” (Vinyasa) for energy, so now it’s YIN w/a touch of VIN. It’s a great way to start a day and appropriate for any level of experience.

Starting next Wednesday, September 20th at 6:00pm, I will have a “Basic” Vinyasa class. Again, Vinyasa means “flow”. We marry the breath with the movement from one pose to another. The poses (asanas) help improve, strength, balance and flexibility. This is an appropriate class for beginners as well as more experienced practitioners. I’ll always help you to find modifications that make any practice your practice.

These two on-going classes will run through the week before Thanksgiving.

I will be posting more in the days to come. If you are interested in joining, DM me or email me at [email protected] for rates, details, questions, etc. (With the exception of my current Monday morning students, please be sure you contact me, DM, email, or txt, before attending so I can be certain there is ample space!).

Hope to see you soon!

Greetings ALL. Well, it’s been
a more challenging ride this summer than I originally thought. I thought patience with healing would be a teensy bit easier, but my “injuries” turned out to be more than what originally thought. I’m coming along and finally beginning to see some light at the end of the tunnel as they say. I learned that getting a cast on is scary, having it on in the heat of summer is a true test of the insanity edge and weirdly, getting it off is even scarier. I’ve done my best to be a good patient and follow doctor’s orders, most of the time ; ). I’m hoping the Lucky Stone Yoga studio will open its doors as summer closes out. I appreciate all the well wishes and offers of helping hands as mine continue to heal. I hope your summer has been happy and healthy.

Healing happens one way or another…if we let it. Like anything else, it’s how we navigate the process and not getting hung up on how long it’s taking. Everybody’s body is different as are their mental and emotional maps, thus no journey looks the same. Being patient, kind and caring to ourselves is much more challenging than being so with others. I admit, I’ve been a bit impatient and anxious for this healing process to be over. And then today I started thinking about how much stronger we can be when we actually give ourselves the time to heal properly and walk mindfully on our path. Negative thoughts and energy hurt and hinder healing. Mindfulness, awareness, compassion and a spatter of good humor are much better ingredients for our health of body , mind and spirit. More “noticing what I notice” especially the transitions and in-betweens.

Thank you to everyone that’s checked in with me. I have a couple more appointments next week and then hopefully will have some updates! Stay tuned.

Hi everyone! Time for a Lucky Stone Yoga Update!
The EXTENSION classes for the Back To Basic Series are officially over. Holly and I really enjoyed bringing that series to you and hope it gave you a good foundation for your own home practice. (Remember that part about…”for when the teacher is unavailable?” More on that in a minute!). Any Yin Yoga “regulars” reading this, I will be sending out a group txt soon in re: to our summer schedule.

Without going into too much detail, the other day I took a tumble that landed me in the ER…I’M FINE!!!! A small fracture, some strains and swellings here and there and NO SURGERY NECESSARY! Whew! I’ve got a whole lot of yoga lessons I’m meditating on and thought I’d share a few with you for your home practices:
1. Focus on what you CAN do not what you CAN’T do!!
2. Just keep ego out of the daily picture and ask for and ACCEPT help when you NEED it.
3. Take time and be patient in order to heal properly in every capacity (body, mind and emotions) to avoid re-injury.
4. Listen to your body whisper so you don’t have to hear it scream!
5. Stop yelling at the Universe to give you a break so you can rest…the Universe understands “BREAK” differently and does in fact give it to you so you HAVE to rest, and then says, rather sarcastically I might add, “You’re welcome!” Next time, give yourself the break and rest you need and deserve, and the Universe will say, with love, “Thank YOU…that’s how it’s done”
6. There’s always time to practice and if you can breathe, you can practice.
7. Be grateful
8. Smile through the tough stuff…it makes it easier.
9. Healing, no matter what kind, is rarely a smooth path.
10. And I’m ok with that.

More lessons and updates to come, so stay tuned. I still hope to offer some workshops over the summer.
Namaste-grateful.

Back to Basics extension class (closed) is ON tonight !

05/09/2023

Hello from Lucky Stone Yoga! My name is Birdie. Some years back, my human mama, Kimberly Zajac brought me to one of her yoga classes. I really loved it, but timing just wasn’t right for me to return. But recently she’s been bringing me to the studio to keep her company when she’s doing her art work. She chats and I listen…sometimes she mumbles and grumbles and I calm her down. I’m reeeeeally good at it. So this morning, I gave her my bestest, beautiful sad eyes and she fell for it!…and brought me to her morning yin class to “assist”. I LOVED it. I made new friends and everyone had an extra lovely vibe thing goin’ on. What can I say, I’m a natural. I’ve been invited back. ❤️. Stay tuned for new stuff!

05/03/2023

Back To Basics extension class is ON tonight at 6:00pm for those continuing. (Currently a closed class)

04/26/2023

This is my little rogue Pansy. It wasn’t “planted” here just off my front porch, but it did FIND its GROUND to grow here. I had a pot of pansies on a stand near this spot a few years back and when their season was over, the pot cleaned of the brittle memories of spring and summer, it set there empty to be filled with autumn leaves and winter snow for the next several months. The following springs I would purchase other annuals to fill the pot. BUT, somehow with miraculous strength and ability that isn’t even visible to the eye, my rogue pansy pushes through the cold soil, the thick layer of mulch, even some gravel that’s out there, to say, “YOU CAN DO IT TOO!” Remember I said, the pot of original pansies was a few years back. Somehow seeds fell from that pot, the ground took them in and this little flower that doesn’t look like it could withstand a whisper, not only grows and blossoms, but comes back, AGAIN….stronger. “It doesn’t matter how long you’ve practiced yoga, or how long you’ve been away from it….it’s the times you come back to it that matter most.” Back To Basics Students, Tonight (4/26/23 @ 6:00pm) is SESSION 4 ! You did it! Whhhoooooosh…that went fast. See you there! We’ll talk about “what’s next?”.

04/19/2023

Hey there Back To Basics Students! How did you do over our two week break? Tell me all about it in our SESSION 3, TONIGHT (4/19/23) at 6:00pm. I can’t wait! I have some more practice stories to share and I’m really hoping you’ll share yours as well. And bring more quotes! Something that really rings that bell of inspiration for you might be just the ring someone else could benefit from too! See you in a bit!

Do you have extreme fatigue? When your get up and go, has gone up and went. Or maybe, you want to increase your energy. It's springtime and this is the best time to help you shake off that winter weight and get going with building energy. Join this private FB group starting April 27 (kick-off meeting @ 7pm). Visit my website for details or message me with questions.

Back To Basics Students….See YOU for SESSION 2, tonight at 6:00pm. Don’t forget your journals. 🙏

04/03/2023

Ahhhhhh…..balance….what a beautiful thing. REGAINING balance….even better. But what does that mean? Means we ALL ”fall” out of balance and that’s OK. It’s “ok” to tap down or reach out or try again. It’s kind of like “making up” after a fight. It’s the best part. Everything we learn on the mat we can apply to our life! Week 1 of the Back to Basics Series was awesome. And I forgot “stuff” bc I was so excited and yes, nervous. So I got to “re-gain” my balance. Yup….all good and I can’t wait for this Wednesday night’s session #2. Remember to bring your journals and remember to bring in a favorite quote or two to share!
Stay tuned!…More “re-gaining” balance to come!
Namaste-real.

Excited for this evening and session 1 of the Back to Basics Series. (Students registered for this series, you should have received a welcome letter via messenger, txt or email…please arrive a little early so we can take care of business before class starts at 6:00pm). I have already had so many requests of interest if I do this again….I will…and other themed series sessions as well; so keep checking the page and keep up on what’s goin’ on at Lucky Stone Yoga (and ART) Studio !

03/26/2023

So this happened! WOW…thank you everyone! Looking forward to Wednesday night and bringing an amazing group of women together to Get Back To Basics!

03/23/2023

JOIN ME at Lucky Stone Yoga studio for the Back To Basics 4 class series starting next Wednesday, March 29th (4/5, 4/19, and 4/26). We’ll be meeting four times for an hour and a half, and learning how to take a practice from the studio, to your home or wherever you may BE, and then take that practice and the lessons off the mat into your life, wherever you may GO. So often we START a class with great enthusiasm and we may even START practicing at home, “a little”; but we can’t remember how to do it at home and we feel like we need the teacher’s voice or a DVD or a YouTube video to guide us. We all know how important it is to take time for ourselves, but do we? We look to that hour plus studio class once a week for our dose when we would benefit so much more from incorporating the components every day on our own. Stop thinking you have to do an all out, pretzel-circus-sweat-dripping-posture-practice with an incense-fogged-mountain-cave-meditation-marathon! This series is about making a home practice doable so you can unplug without having to plug into a device to show you how to do it. You’ll become confident in YOUR inner voice to guide you. Yes, you will learn short pose sequences, breath work and meditation/mindfulness techniques, as well as journaling prompts to help keep track of your journey and help map out your next one! We’ll circle up and discuss what’s working, obastacles and how to get over them. SPACE is LIMITED and there are only a few slots left. The cost is $75. Private message me or email me at [email protected] to save your place and arrange payment. I look forward to welcoming you!

As you’ll see in this video, my “yoga-kids” have grown….A LOT….but we’re still having just as much fun. How about this for a bachelorette party? Yup! That’s what this was. Hmm, maybe I should hire out the kids for the reception….instead of the conga line we’ll have the guests make a goat bridge!!!! Namaste-happy everyone!
