Seva Series are yoga workshops offered up to once a month at Heartspace Yoga where 100% of the proceeds will be donated to a charity, community group, or global cause. The teachers and receiving organizations will vary from month to month.

The idea for Seva Series was conceived when a few yoga teachers, saddened by the headlines, asked, "What can we do to help?" The answer was clear: seva. Seva is the Sanskrit word for selfless service. We can all make a difference one deep breath at a time.

Please note that class cards will not be accepted for Seva Series. Checks can be made out to the receiving organization.

If you would like to recommend an organization or charity that would benefit from the Seva Series, please contact Carrie Will at yoga@carriewill.com

Saturday February 18th, 2-3PM

• Donation class offered by instructor Sarah Peters for triathletes and athletes of all stripes who ask a lot of their bodies and want to find new ways to open and release. 
  
• Being a triathlete requires diligence, will, strength, agility, and endurance in mind, body and spirit. On February 18th at 2:00 p.m, Capital District Triathlon Club (CDTC) member and HeartSpace yoga instructor, Sarah Peters, will be offering an hour long yoga class to emphasize all of these qualities and help triathletes improve their experience and performance of the sport. She will help open up chests from hovering over handle bars, hamstrings from pulling legs forward or up to run or ride, challenge the core strength of each participant and do much more while helping us relax what the long hours of training do both mentally and physically.*   
  
• This month’s proceeds will be donated to Troy Bike Rescue (http://troybikerescue.org/about) to build the local bicycling community. Donations of spare bike accessories, tools, bikes, or cash will be accepted and donated the week of February 18, 2012. All triathletes are invited, regardless of yoga experience, to join in on an afternoon during the triathlon off-season to relax and support a common goal of helping everyone enjoy the road more.
  
  *There will be no graphs or charts to optimize your experience in yoga but breath rates and depth will be monitored!
