the inspiration series |
You dance inside my chest, where no one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art." — Rumi |

The word inspiration comes from the latin root inspirare, meaning to "breathe in spirit." To feel inspired is a spiritual experience.
The Inspiration Series is a monthly event that grew out Mountain Yoga director Ann Dyer's love of the arts and their ability to take our breath away — and replace it with awe and wonder. The capacity of the arts to transform us — like yoga. Prominent musicians, dancers, visual artists and authors share their passion and creativity with the Mountain Yoga community in intimate, informal evenings at the studio. A little bit of talk, a little performance, a little interaction... a lot of love. Spirit in Motion is the latest in our Inspiration Series events, curated by guest Artistic Director Mahea Uchiyama (pictured above) and featuring renowned performing artists sharing sacred movement traditions from around the world. Starts March 31 with the amazing Melanie DeMore. |
