Meditation anyone?

Several on my yoga students have expressed an interest in starting a Meditation Circle. This is a group that meets weekly to meditate together. I am happy to help facilitate this. This is not a class or seminar on meditation. It is a group that will meet to meditate. There is no money involved, and I envision that the meditation can be hosted by a different member at their home each week. Sunday morning would be my day and time of preference, but that will be up to the group. Meditations would be an hour long. Usually this would be 10 min of discussion on the type of meditation being done, 30-40min of actual meditation, and then 10 min to share experiences and impressions. Meditations would be at the discretion of the members and may include seated, Zen style meditation, walking meditations, chanting, visualization, guided meditations, or whatever. As of today, March 2nd, dispite numerous expressions of interest, I have recieved less that a dozen emails about the group. If you are interested in being a part of the group, or would like more information about it, send me an email. If we reach a critical number of 20 interested participants, We will form the group. I would like to get this started by the middle of march, so if interested, Don't wait.

  Class Updates 

 

Classes:

As of the first Sunday in March, Scott will be teaching the 10:15am heated Power Yoga class at Mountainside Shea, and to do so, will be giving up the 9:00am Yoga 101 and 10:15am Power Yoga classes at Mountainside, North Phoenix

  

Gentle Yoga and Yin Yoga classes continue to grow in popularity. Gentle yoga, as I teach it, is a fusion between deep stetching yin poses, and passive stretching restorative poses. It is designed to help you not only stretch and open into your hips and lower back, but to help bring you to a calm, meditative place of relaxation. It is accessable to everyone of all ages and fitness levels. No prior Yoga experience is necessary.

 About Scott Page:

 

        Scott fancies himself a Renaissance man. He has diverse interests, and has had many interesting work opportunities. Scott served 4 years in the United States Marine Corp. He attained the rank of Sergeant, and spent his last 2 years as a Weapons Instructor. After that, Scott did everything from Hot tar roofing,  Life Insurance sales,  professional Floral design and Calligraphy, to psychological counseling of dually diagnosed young adults in a Psychiatric Hospital. As an entrepreneur, Scott ran his own business for 10 years before moving to Arizona. Most recently, Scott has worked at Indian casinos as a professional Blackjack and Poker Dealer. 

        

    Scott's interests are varied. He spent 4 years as a volunteer First Aider as a certified EMT. He plays guitar, chants, meditates, reads spiritual and motivational literature, and writes poetry. He is happily married and has two daughters.

   

  Scott was a latecomer to Yoga. After ten years as a Martial Arts student and instructor in the 1990's, and numerous injuries, including a torn Achilles tendon, Scott gave up Martial Arts, and began his Yoga journey. Scott began practicing astanga vinyasa yoga in the tradition of Sri K Pattabhi Jois. 

          Astanga vinyasa yoga is described as “a method in which a set series of poses is linked by vinyasa (flowing movement) and synchronized with the breath, which produces intense internal heat and purifying sweat.” Astanga classes are vigorous, and physically challenging. 

  

   Scott studied with Wendy Green while living on the East Coast. After moving to Scottsdale in 2003, Scott continued his astanga practice with Dave Oliver, a well respected yoga instructor. In early 2006, Scott committed himself to becoming a full time yoga instructor. He is certified through At One Yoga, and is a registered yoga teacher (RYT) with the Yoga Alliance. Scott teaches in the North Scottsdale area in a variety of gyms and studios, and privately. His class offerings range from Gentle and Yin/Deep Stretch, to Flow and Power.  Although he teaches, he continues to be a perpetual student always eager to learn about yoga and life.
