Dear ABT friends. I am trying to figure out where to find some of the recordings we filmed in the 80’s and 90’s Live from Lincoln Center. The performing arts library will not let you copy just view.
PBS website sends you to the performing arts library. We did not have the luxury of smart phones at the time and its very hard to have any memory of 12 years in ABT.
Any ideas out there? Any contacts that you know about?
It will be greatly appreciated. Thank you much!

Dear Friends,

We are moving on Monday and the first class will not be in the current space.

The class will take place at 14 Old Barn Road Unit 3 on the second floor. The entrance is in the back of the buiding. Parking is also in the back. Go past RT Facts make a right to park and you will see the stairs on the right as you are facing the back of the building. The sign on the door says Gyrotonic. YOU WILL NEED TO BUZZ UP so I can let you in.

Terry and Missy I will let you know if we can access any wifi. If not perhaps you can come in person.

Thank you to all that have offered to help me move. It is much appreciated. I was able to find some strong young guys to help and we don’t have a big load. Mostly props and Stan.

Oh and we also have a bathroom. YEAHHHH!

Any problems you can call me 917 923 8886.

Thank you,
Alina

Dear Friends
I just read this in the harvard medical journal and I thought I would share it with you.
Yoga is a great way to manage stress. Did you know that most American adults feel the effects of stress? Regular yoga practice can help you deal with stress and improve your overall well-being. Yoga has many scientifically proven benefits for the mind and body. It can reduce stress, boost your immune system, and help you feel less tired. Yoga can also improve your sleep and make you feel more energized. Even people recovering from medical illnesses like cancer can benefit from yoga. The key to getting the most out of yoga is to practice regularly and consistently.

Keep practicing. Namastream is a wonderful way to keep up your practice during these shorter days of light.
See you soon,
Alina

She is known for her ability to hone in on each individual student during her classes. Whatever your needs, she will modify poses for you, while keeping the rest of the class focused.

She offers different levels of yoga classes to keep you as safe as possible in your yoga practice. Alina practices everyday and studies regularly with her teachers. From all the abuse of dancing at such a young age, she understands the healing process better than most. This experience has been her best teacher and has given her an appreciation for this amazing practice of yoga. Alina feels that we have so much stress and so many distractions in our lives right now, that it's nice to do a practice that allows your body mind and spirit to be supported strengthened and balanced.
