Shiva Nata Salon! New Classes in Denver
Posted on Nov 4, 2011 in Shiva Nata | 1 commentUndecided if the best way to spend your mornings is yoga? meditation? just working on your STUFF already (grumble grumble taking time for self-care)!?!
Let’s do it all! A leisurely, laughing class that will mindfully work your arms, abs, legs – scramble, then settle your brain in all the right ways to come up gasping with inspiration! Huge epiphanies happening with delightful regularity!
Who/What:
You! As a conscious human being, who can see that the best way to move forward is to clear up the stuffs within. We’ll be doing Shiva Nata, a hilariously confusing (intentionally) ninja brain training technique. Hmm, I promise to refine this, but check out Havi’s description of her class here. (She’s my hero! She’s the #2 world expert in Shiva Nata! I just got back from a small 8-day workshop with her that was amazeballs!) That’s what we’ll be doing… it will be awesome!
We’ll be doing a little bit of learning about the Dance, then waggle our arms around like demented monkeys for awhile. We will break for some shavasana meditation (i.e. laying on our backs and feeling the brain’s happy buzz as it works out What In The World Just Happened.) Then out come the notebooks for some crazy insightful writing – following prompts given by me, or doing your own fine thing. You leave with a notebook full of geniuses, and your brain still abuzz for the next 48 hours, ready to serve up some piping hot epiphanies!
When:
Monday / Wednesday / Friday mornings in November – hopefully extending longer term. 8:30-10:00 (active teaching finishes at 9:30, if you need to hustle out).Where:
This is an in-person class. You are invited to the comfortable home studio of Fan The Ember (me!). This being a salon, Gilded Age / Belle Époque style (no hairdressing happening. or required), there will be a variety of lovely teas, as well as comfy seats or an abundance of floor… Smoking from long cigarette holders not particularly encouraged, although waving an empty one around in a sophisticated way will likely be applauded.
My studio is at 2609 Humboldt St., Denver, CO 80205 – fast access on Downing St. from I-25 or I-70. Tons of street parking, come on in or call me if you get lost, 72o.394.6o68.
How Much:
Classes this month will be donation-based, with a suggested donation of $20 (super cheap for 90 minutes of yoga, self-business coaching, therapy, all in one). Come check it out! Any amount of cash, checks or paypal on my computer gratefully accepted.
Assorted Assortments:
- Warning: the guard lion (actually a dog!) of the household will likely not be present. However, it is unavoidable that her fur will be present, in abundance. If this sets your white blood cell brigade on five-alarm alert, it might be best to wait until a workshop, new studio, or reliable web streaming happens – sorry!
- While we won’t be doing jumping jacks, there is a lot of arm movement and leg movement possibly happening at the same time. Wear something you can move your arms around in, that you wouldn’t mind getting a teensy bit sweaty. Obviously this is a casual event – some of those fancy salon dresses looked suprisingly like nightgowns. Just saying.
- Bring your preferred water bottle.
- And notebook and pens, crayons, watercolors – however you like to get down inspired thoughts. Computers totally allowed for faster transcription, but no internets for you! How relaxing.
- Lovely new thoughts can be disconcerting! Fair warning. Also addictive – shiva nata is pretty amazing.




Hi Beth,
WOW, this is the most awesome thing that I want to get my head around.
As I live in Australia I am wondering if you have an instructional
kit that I can learn from?
