You are being called to create a new way of living on this planet!

Dear Community,

It has always been a dream of mine to be able to GIVE in a big way to a Festival that has provided me with so much incredible joy in my life.  I can’t say enough about what I have received over the years on so many levels. If you’ve been, you understand what I mean!

After I came back from the Temple in Peru this Spring, I vowed I would touch many hearts deeply this year through offering my love and service of Yoga. What a magical year to take this vow! Not only is the theme Rites of Passage, it’s my 7th year (lucky number 7)!

I am destined to help create a magical high vibrational experience for those around me and I was given these opportunities to offer Love and Seva at the Burn:

• Vinyasa Flow Yoga classes at Camp Osiris at 10 o’clock & Esplanade on Thurs, Fri and Sat at 10:30am (The Great Pyramid – can it get any better for a Yoga theme?)
• Singing my newly release song, Vision of Love,  live with Boomrock Saints so that I can express my extreme gratitude for the Love I’ve received in my life. Thurs 2:45am (coming off Wed night White Party!)

Using my new favorite word…simply…EPIC!!!   Please support me and take this offering of gratitude and love into your hearts.

On a final note, I released Yoga4Burners with my partner, Dr. Gino Dante Borges (The Wild Self) and created a free 20 min audio yoga sequence for download to your iPods or phones specifically to address physical pain from dancing and biking and to Relax & Renew your energy, so you can go out for more fun! Email:  nic@nicolepresents.com for the VIP link invitation from SoundCloud. It’s a limited invite Beta Test. Feedback is required!

Please join me on Wed & Fri July 20 and 22nd. I will be teaching at AstaYoga at 11:30a on 14th & Valencia.  Come join me for the always fun and energetic Rocket I sequence designed by Larry Schultz.  http://www.astayoga.net

On Sunday July 17th and Sunday August 24th you can catch me and Dr. Gino Borges of The Wild Self at Cafe Cocomo for the Prepare for the Playa event, presenting our new workshop series, Yoga4Burners.  That’s right, this one will be a super fun one that you don’t want to miss.

On Sunday July 24th you can catch us at “Beyond the Fence” at Mighty in San Francisco, CA. We’ll have mats so you can join us outside for a practice and hang out with us for 15 minutes of freedom!

Black Rock desert is a great backdrop for radical self-expression… it is wild and raw, a perfect playground for the wilder part of our self that lives just below the surface of socialization… though the desert environment and around-the-clock circus at burning man inevitably takes a toll on the mind, body, and spirit… you can go from feeling like you are in burning man heaven to feeling like coyote s*#t in a gerlach minute.

Yoga4Burners can help keep you feeling fabulous all the time… whether you’re a novice to yoga or have many years of experience, yoga4burners will give you a unique foundation for responding to what our research designates to be 5 of the most common occurrences on the playa.

Join Nicole Doherty and Gino Dante Borges to come into contact with your ‘true burner self’ and learn some easy poses that you can take with you wherever you quest at Burning Man.

Free Yoga All Week in San Francisco! 

Monday May 9th – Friday May 13th

7-8:30am

Before we get into the details of the free yoga, I just wanted to say thank you to all the attendees for today’s workshop, Empower Yourself to Transform. It was absolutely incredible and inspirational to have you all participate, especially our moms. We had such a blast!  It was wonderful to celebrate the Shakti energy of the Universe and give thanks to our creators and our Mother Earth. We started the day with an inspirational talk, stoked our internal fire with chanting, deepened our breath with Pranayama techniques, gained inner strength through our Vinyasa flow practice and became deeply present with meditation!  Sounds divine doesn’t it?

As part of the Empower Yourself to Transform workshop series, I’ve opened the doors to the public!

Squaw Valley
Squaw Valley provides the perfect natural setting to meditate, contemplate, or just get away from the concrete and crowding of our large cities.  Take the cable car to the top of the mountain and you can wander for hours across ridges and meadows where there aren’t even any trails.  Or go for a five minute hike out of the Village and you’ll find yourself on an immense network of paths interspersed with streams, rock climbs and wildlife.  Come get away.

Wanderlust will offer yoga classes at nine separate venues Thursday, July 29 through Sunday, August 1, 2010.  Most classes are located in the Village, but there are a number of classes at High Camp as well.  You’ll need one of our yoga + music tickets to practice.  You can schedule your classes in advance through our website beginning March 29, 2010.

Meditation & Lectures

Stay tuned because we will have a ticket giveaway in a future newsletter!  Sign up for our newsletter!

We were really excited to hear about free Yoga classes being offered locally by a great friend and experienced Yoga teacher Natalie Wasil!

Her classes are physically challenging, yet nurturing and adapted to all types of bodies and backgrounds. Students are encouraged to come to an awareness of their own internal resources through breath, focus and a flow that balances movement and the stoking of internal heat with stillness and deep opening. The practice of Yoga happens from the inside out and is a powerful tool for self transformation for any body!

Monday 4:15pm @ James Howell Studio (open)
Thursdays 2:30pm @ The Women’s Building (women only)
