Say "Adiós" to Synergy Yoga on Española Way...

...and "¡Hola!" to their new location on Alton Road.

It is with a heavy heart and we type with a heavy hand while we come to terms with the news that Synergy Yoga on Española Way will be closing the doors in September. Womp. Womp.

They are being pushed out of their location due to sky rocking rent prices and it is with this that we are shaking our head with disappointment.

You have permission to commence the boycott of Española Way immediately, yogis. 

Something you may not know is that in a past life we worked on the second floor next to Synergy back. in. the. day. when the hostel was still across the street. Many afternoons spent being entertained by the tourists doing crazy things on the balconies.  *le sigh*

The good news is that they will be upgrading their space to a new 2nd floor location on 8th and Alton Road.

From Victoria,

"We invite everyone to share these times of Transformation with us and to say good bye to the center in Espanola way as we embrace our new location. I know we shared incredible moments there, but it is time to move forward and upgrade! Our new location is on 844 Alton Road, and we will be doing an opening in September 8th and a Grand Opening with a Super Celebration on October 1st, everyone is Invited! Our new center has its own Parking in the back, and a Garden for us to gather and mingle in the best Yogic way! Also besides the 2 Yoga rooms and our Healing room we will also have a beautiful bathroom with a Shower. On top of all these wonderful things, we will be serving you fresh Juices , ready after your class! It's a new era at Synergy Yoga with lots of improvements and the same loving and authentic teachers. Changes are not easy but they are always for the better, for sure. Join us at this new location!"

We will keep you posted on details of the new space as they roll out. It is your yogic duty to support them.

Peace, out! 

YOGA + SPA + GARDEN DINNER at The Palms Hotel

Your Wednesday evenings just got booked for the rest of the summer.

The Palms Hotel in Miami Beach is now having midweek yoga sessions followed by food harvested from the in-house restaurant, Essensia's, garden.

Oh, and did we mention that it also happens to be Miami Spa Month? Make an entire evening of it by selecting a spa service from their menu.

This just sounds delightful. One Total Body Rejuvenation? Yes, please! Holy, Gomukhasana - a Warm Oil Infusion Scalp Massage?? That's more action than we've seen in years!!

I wonder if they can perform that one if you have massive dreads? Thoughts?

Nom, Nom, Nom-aste, yogis :)

Morning Meditations: Wandering Mystic?

During my early morning meditation sessions on the beach, as the sun starts to rise over the ocean and the waves begin to crash onto the beach, it is not uncommon for me to open my eyes, look around and realize I am surrounded by crazy homeless people.

Welcome to Miami Beach. For the most part we all ignore each other and do our own thing, and I'm learning that is the unspoken rule of sunrise in bum culture.

Occasionally a random drunk stumbles to the sand and passes out on the shore (amateur). The sand grater drives around him in the tractor and life goes on.

This morning when I came downstairs to do my thing, I noticed a yogi on my turf who's morning practice was so interesting, I couldn't tune in to the Bhagavan Das I was blasting into my skull.

I'm still not certain if this guy was having a seizure or practicing some advanced form of Kundalini. Was he a homeless crazy or a wandering mystic? Maybe both.

Sketchy Studio Commercial - What's Going on Here?

Aauuummmm, what exactly is going on here?

Sometimes people send us stuff to post. Sometimes we post it. This one was passed onto us and definitely has us confused.

We're not too sure of the intention behind this "commercial" from Synergy SoBe, but we are pretty sure that these chicks want to show us their "OM" faces.

Did they sneak into the studio to film this thing? What exactly are they advertising? None of the studio's teachers are represented? And is that one chick wearing a shirt that says, "Eat The Red"?!?!

Wow. We thought we were offensive. Hats and yoga pants off to you, Synergy Yoga.

See it to believe it - Enjoy!
