"Dana is a dear friend and beloved guide into the wilderness of the spirit. Her style of teaching yoga is evocative, creative, and full of soul -- always urging you to live the life you love and love the life you live. Come experience one of the most unique, lively, and inspiring voices in yoga today." - Sean Johnson, Founder of Wild Lotus Yoga

A yoga class with Dana has the devotional energy, passion, and music of gospel church. To make the night even more special this Lotus Flow class will actually take place in the sacred ambience of Holy Angels Chapel, a beautiful former chapel now used as a meeting hall, where we've been offering our downtown donation classes five days a week. Woven into the evening's festivities will be some kirtan chanting with Sean and drumming with Gwendolyn.

A Portion of the Proceeds go to Benefit the Wild Lotus Scholarship Fund, making it possible for low-income members of community to attend yoga workshops and trainings at the studio.

Dana Flynn is the Director of the School and Center at Laughing Lotus Yoga Center in NYC. This year Lotus Celebrates 10 years of Community! Dana is known for her wildly poetic yoga sequencing and her raw and generous energy. She is celebrated for re-awakening yoga asanas and creating mass Celebration. She has been featured in The NY Times, and she has taught at yoga conferences and festivals all over the world including Yoga Journal. She bows to the amazing teachers that have inspired her along her Cosmic way, especially Sharon Gannon, Rodney Yee and Jasmine Tarkeshi.

Dana will also be guiding a teacher's intensive and Sunday morning revival flow class at Wild Lotus' uptown studio on Saturday and Sunday.

Remember Haiti ~ less than a year has passed.

November 16 is Give to the Max Day!

Headwaters/Delta asks you to donate to help Haiti recover. Our friends at Mission Haiti need support to continue their important work providing basic needs in a dire situation. Mission Haiti is a small, volunteer-run organization and relies on support from Minnesota to continue their work. This organization is inspired by the Christian ideal of compassion for those in need.

“Love, support, and the care of children have no boundaries—we believe that we are all equal partners in God’s eyes. In 1998, a small group of us responded to the need for these very things in a small, often forgotten place called Haiti. We started by building a school in Leogane, a port town approximately 18 miles west of Port au Prince. Children not only receive a daily meal at school, but also the hope that comes with the possibilities of education.

Since that time, Mission Haiti Inc. has broadened our mission to include a greater share of the funding for the growing Annunciation School, support of a home for abandoned women called The Village of Jesus, provision of medical kits to clinics, leading immersion/service trips, and partnering with other humanitarian efforts to provide medicine, food, clean water and other basic necessities that are chronically in short supply in Haiti.

We are excited about our growth and progress, and yet, there is much still to do.

Working side-by-side with Haitians in their communities, together, we are changing the world. Will you join us? Your donations, sponsorship, and support are vital to continuing this life-saving work.”
