AN IMPORTANT NOTE: my review of IPY concerns the new Tuesday evening class being taught inside…read moreShane Photography Studio in the Arts & Design District of Carmel. I am happy to say that 8 students were present at Shane Photography for the first session of Inner Peace Yoga's new Tuesday evening Beginner I yoga class - including myself and hubby. Inner Peace Yoga owners Carol and Charles Crenshaw teach in the Himalayan tradition, which is what I first experienced years ago and still one of my favorite methods of practice. While vinyasa flow, power yoga and hot yoga seem to be all the rage these days - and they certainly serve a great many individuals - I prefer a slower pace where postures are held and/or repeated. I also like to incorporate breathwork and meditation into my practice. That is why I enjoyed IPY's new Carmel class so much - it really reminded me of what made me interested in yoga in the first place - when I left I felt at peace, more focused and de-stressed. Normally a late-nighter, I was ready for bed at 10:30 and slept like a log. I also tend to favor IPY's approach of building one's practice over time In other words, if you're totally new to yoga, you begin at the beginning and establish a foundation of yoga postures, breathing awareness and technique and movement. Then, as you feel comfortable and your instructor thinks you are ready, you progress to more challenging classes. In this way, you are less likely to get injured or simply become disillusioned with your practice. Plus, you really learn about yoga from the inside-out, in my opinion, which makes it much more possible to develop a home practice. Another bonus: IPY offers classes, workshops and other events on complementary subjects such as meditation, ayurveda, chanting and the like, as well as retreats. These are particularly helpful if you are more interested in expanding your yoga practice beyond postures on the mat :-)

I have been curious about what happens in this space after walking by it in East St a couple times…read more I met them at our neighborhood street fest, and a couple friends and I decided to try a sound bath there. I had no idea what to expect. We had an amazing time and left so relaxed. Emily G led the session and was incredible. I had no idea that just sound could give me the same level of relaxation as a massage or yoga session. But we all left feeling so cozy and relaxed. The space is beautiful and operates as a coworking space for holistic practitioners, which is a really great, unique idea. The space is beautiful and they plan to offer a lot of community opportunities. Other services they have there are massages, acupuncture, cupping and more. I would love to do yoga there if they ever offer it. They're right on East St, where street parking is free and easy to find. I'm excited to have Epicenter in the neighborhood and will definitely be back!

Colleen was very attentive and professional. I will definitely be going back!
