“Gail Gurewitz is an extraordinary yoga teacher. A former professional ballet dancer, Gail brings grace, strength, and a deep knowledge of the body to her teaching. She is deeply grounded in the principles of yoga and shares her spiritual perspective in every class. I have been taking classes from Gail for ten years. As a teacher she is warm, encouraging, and approachable. I love Gail’s classes!” -Susan R.
“There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique . . . keep the channel open.”
— Martha Graham
Upcoming Offerings:
New Year and New Series!
In Person Yoga Series @ Or Shalom Jewish Community
Happy New Year! The start of a new year is always a perfect time to reflect and set intentions for the months ahead. While this season brings fresh possibilities, it also reminds us of the resilience we carry within, especially in times of challenge. The devastating fires in LA are a reminder of nature’s force and the strength of community. My heart goes out to all beings impacted, and I’m inspired by the collective efforts to rebuild and support one another through these tough times.
As we move forward, many of us may be thinking about our goals and the things we’d like to nurture in our lives. Yoga, when paired with a Sankalpa (a powerful, heart-centered intention), can provide a clear path toward healing, growth, and transformation. Sankalpa serves as a reminder of what we truly wish to cultivate in our lives, such as peace, balance, strength, or love.
With this spirit of renewal, I’m excited to share that I’ll be offering new series of in-person yoga classes, beginning this Tuesday, January 14. These sessions will focus on deepening our practice while also creating space for intention-setting, reflection, and mindfulness. Whether you’re a seasoned practitioner or just beginning your journey, I’d love for you to join us and explore the power of yoga and movement in community.
Wishing you a peaceful and intentional start to the year!
With warmth and gratitude,
Gail
