The following year, David deepened his practice by participating in a month-long internship at the Flying Tree Yoga Studio in Medellin, Colombia.

David firmly believes that yoga offers physical and mental health benefits for individuals of all ages. His mission is to foster strength, awareness, and harmony in both the mind and body through yoga. Join him for a transformative hot Hatha practice at Amana Yoga Studio every Saturday at 10:30 AM.

Laura will close out the 7th Annual Balance Festival with a singing bowl sound bath on Sunday at 3pm! If you have not experienced a sound bath - this is your chance.

Laura MacNeill is a facilitator with a background in yoga, bodywork, Reiki, and mindfulness-based practices. She has been exploring these and other embodied practices for many years and loves creating welcoming spaces where people can slow down, reconnect with themselves, and simply experience the moment.

Session Description:

Settle in and allow yourself to slow down during this 45-minute singing bowl sound bath. Using seven singing bowls, Laura will create layers of tone, vibration, and resonance, inviting participants into a deeply restful and meditative experience. No previous meditation or sound-bath experience is needed. Simply find a comfortable position, listen, and allow the sounds to unfold around you. Please bring whatever you need to lie down comfortably!

Balance Festival single day tickets and Festival Passes are on sale on Eventbrite and will be available at registration on Saturday and Sunday.
