YOGA NEWS:
GWC is pleased to announce that Kaia Yoga administers our Yoga program. Kaia Yoga is owned by Gina Norman and Stan Woodman. Gina started on her yoga path 15 years ago with Alan Finger at Yoga Zone in NYC. It was evident after immersing herself in yoga that mind/body work and its essential connection to overall health and happiness was more then just an interest, it would direct her life. Since then she has studied Thai massage in Thailand, Vipassana meditation in India, Buddhist studies in the Shambhala tradition, and Cranial Sacral Therapy through the Upledger Institute. Stan took his first yoga class in 1991 leading to a dedicated practice which began in 1997. Having moved to New York from Colorado 10 years ago, Stan went from catchin' air snowboarding deep in the backcountry of the Rocky Mountains to catchin' air ashtanga style in NYC, the Hamptons and Greenwich. Stan and Gina are also the proud parents of their beautiful daughter, Kaia. We are excited about the expanded opportunities that will be provided to our GWC yoga community and hope that you will take advantage this affiliation will offer.
