SUMMARY:Sunday Yoga & Mindfulness With Halen Bower
DESCRIPTION:Join Halen at the Hold Your Horses Farm for Yoga and community connection. Halen will greet you in the client waiting room with hot tea\, offer a short mindful walk of the property\, and then will guide everyone in an outdoor yoga session. This is a fun\, easy going\, and relaxed yoga class that is held on the beautiful HYH farmland and will conclude with a meditative walk of the farm’s labyrinth. Be sure to wear warm layers and closed toe shoes that can get dirty. Class will take place outside whenever possible. However\, weather and seasonal adjustments to location and supporting activities will be made as needed.  \nTickets: https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/7d8f567e-f094-4a0c-b819-28956d17b4c4 \nCost: Class is $20 per person\, or $30 per family. Most suitable for ages 10 years old and up! \nDates: Second Sunday of every month. \nAbout Halen: As an athlete most of her life\, Halen initially came to yoga as a gentler way to stay in shape. She soon realized that yoga also helped ease her busy mind\, made her a more aware and present person\, and did wonders to support her mental health. In 2010\, Halen completed her 200 hour training with Frog Lotus International in Guatemala and has been traveling with yoga ever since. She has taught yoga in Switzerland\, Alaska\, California\, Minnesota\, and Vermont. Halen currently teaches for Mind Body Solutions\, and has additional training in restorative\, adaptive\, and yin yoga. She has also been a children’s yoga instructor since 2011\, and works as a child therapist. Halen approaches yoga as a way to balance strength and flexibility in the body\, to cultivate a more peaceful mind\, and to encourage curiosity and self-compassion. Her hope is to teach yoga in a mindful\, playful\, and accessible way to help students awaken the mind-body connection and to support both their physical and mental health. \nHalen has been volunteering at Hold Your Horses since July 2024\, and has fallen in love with the peace that simply stepping onto the farmland brings her. She is extremely excited to be able to offer yoga at the farm\, and hopes to see you at a yoga class and/or as a fellow volunteer during barn chores!

SUMMARY:Ancient Waters\, Ancient Wisdom: An Evening Wellness Retreat
DESCRIPTION:An Evening of Chandra Namaskar Yoga\, a Hands-On Horse Experience and Ritual. \nAs summer begins its gentle transition toward harvest\, the Sturgeon Moon invites us to slow down\, reflect\, and reconnect with the wisdom that already lives within us. Named by Indigenous people of the Great Lakes region\, this full moon honors resilience\, abundance\, and the quiet strength that comes from trusting our inner guidance. \n🧘 Begin with a gentle Chandra Namaskar (Moon Salutation) practice\, designed to calm the nervous system\, cultivate presence\, and prepare both body and mind for the evening ahead. \n🐴 Experience the quiet wisdom of the herd during a guided hands-on horse experience. Through gentle interaction and observation\, horses invite us into authenticity\, awareness\, and connection – meeting us exactly as we are. \n🌿 Take part in creating your own Ayurvedic Moon Juice to take home in a glass jar. Following a traditional recipe\, you’ll place it beneath the moonlight overnight and enjoy it the following morning as a mindful continuation of the evening’s intention. \nClose with a guided moonlit meditation with horses beneath the Sturgeon Moon. As the horses move around us\, their calming presence creates a truly unique and peaceful way to end the evening. \nDetails: August 27 | 6:30 – 9:30 PM \n$69 per person \nAges 11+ \nNo prior yoga or horse experience needed \nTICKETS: https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/ancient-waters-ancient-wisdom \nBIOS \nYOGA\, BREATH & MEDITATION with Beth \nBeth Claseman is the founder of Belle Shanti Yoga & Wellness and a dedicated yoga teacher who is passionate about helping people return to themselves—one breath at a time. \nHer work is rooted in the belief that we don’t need to become someone new\, but rather remember who we are beneath the noise. Through breath\, movement\, and moments of stillness\, she creates spaces that invite connection\, clarity\, and a sense of coming home. \nBeth’s teaching is guided not only by movement\, but by a deep awareness of the body’s subtle energy. She weaves this into each experience—whether through dynamic flow\, gentle practice\, or restorative stillness—meeting people where they are and supporting both physical and energetic balance. \nInspired by nature and the quiet wisdom of horses\, her approach reflects a balance of grounded presence and intuitive guidance. She believes that healing happens when we slow down enough to listen\, and that within each of us is a steady place we can return to again and again. \n \nwww.belleshantiyoga.com \nBelle Shanti Yoga Instagram \nEQUINE EXPERIENCE with Loveaya \nLoveaya Magnus brings a lifelong connection with horses into every experience she creates. She has owned and worked with horses since the age of nine and has never been far from them\, shaping a deep understanding rooted not just in training\, but in observation\, relationship\, and respect for the herd. \nShe holds a degree in Therapeutic Horsemanship and is an Advanced Certified Instructor through PATH International\, as well as a mentor and Equine Specialist in Mental Health and Learning. Her approach blends professional expertise with a holistic perspective—believing that horses and nature offer a space where people can return to themselves. \nMuch of Loveaya’s learning has come directly from the horses—watching herd dynamics\, noticing subtle communication\, and allowing the horses to guide the experience. She is passionate about helping others connect with horses in this same authentic way. Horses have a unique ability to ground us\, bring us into the present moment\, and reflect what we carry—offering insight\, calm\, and connection without judgment. \nThrough these retreats\, Loveaya creates opportunities for people to slow down\, tune in\, and experience the quiet\, powerful presence of horses in a way that is both meaningful and transformative.
