The Awareness Through Movement Workshop will be given by Paul Voudouris at Priya Pilates on Wednesday, August 11th, from 9 AM to 3 PM, at a cost of $240. The workshop is for people of all ages, no matter what their physical condition, and who are interested in rediscovering the power of thought, movement, and functional organization. One of the goals of this learning method is to recreate connections between the mind and the body in such a way as to increase awareness and provide more creative options for thought and action.

Reserve your space today for the next round of the Priya Bootcamp experience, which begins Monday, May 10th. The cycle of 14 progressive classes takes place Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings at 7 AM, with two weekend classes TBA. Each class is designed with a high intensity fitness objective, and no two workouts will be alike. Sessions will include kickboxing, running, jumping, weight training, power yoga, or a combination of all of these elements. There are also 2 fitness hikes, with a yoga session or toning workout at the top of a mesa before heading home.
