Workshop Details - Updated July 21st
Hello yogi people!!
The Friday and Saturday sections of the event will be taking place at the Multnomah Athletic Club, also known as the MAC, at 1849 Southwest Salmon Street, in downtown Portland, in an airy, light filled studio, with a wall of windows overlooking our beautiful city. Parking will be available in the MAC garage, and the MAX line stops very nearby (see the map link below). Upon arriving at the MAC, the front desk staff will be able to direct you to the location of the workshop. As you will be entering through the main lobby, please wear something over your yoga clothes - warmup suits, jeans or a casual skirt is fine - just one step above workout wear. Please check in with our volunteers when you arrive at the studio.
Information about the McMinnville section, to be held at the Historic McMinnville Grand Ballroom will be available at check-in on on Friday and Saturday - if you need this information and will not be there Friday or Saturday, please email me (use the contact button at left) and request it.
We will be unable to receive payment via credit card at the workshop location, so If you would like to pay by credit card, please do so using the paypal link on this page (scroll down). You may bring check or cash with you to the workshop venue.
If you have friends or family that want to join you for Desiree's amazing teaching, there is still room to drop in, so bring them along. Feel free to use the contact button at left to address any questions you may have - I am looking so forward to this wonderful weekend!!

Desiree Rumbaugh teaches from the experience of more than two decades of practice. She was one of the first to be certified by John Friend to teach Anusara® Yoga, and now travels the world offering workshops which are innovative, transformative, challenging and compassionate. She has a well-earned reputation for deepening the newest and most seasoned practices through humor balanced with a quest for authenticity. Desiree is known for her upbeat, creative teaching style, deeply compassionate heart, and off-the-hook asana practice. In addition to being the star of her own yoga instructional DVD's, Desiree has contributed to the Yoga Journal's Master Class section, and the Yoga Mentor feature in their online magazine. She has also graced their cover with her remarkable demonstration of the power of grace. She is one of my favorite yoginis and most influential teachers, and I couldn't be more thrilled to be hosting her here in Portland again this summer. As if this weren't enough, after a full weekend of expansive and joyful practice Friday the 22nd and Saturday the 26th, Desiree and I - and all of you - are going to hop over to the wine country on Sunday for a grand celebration in the beautiful Grand Ballroom of historic downtown McMinnville. It's only an hour's drive from Portland proper, and with class at 1pm, we can have a leisurely breakfast and enjoy the drive drive through the exquisite rolling hills of this celebrated vinyard region. Afterward, you are invited to stick around for a bit of bread and cheese and a sampling of local wines. For the wine tasting, there will be a $5 fee to the winery, payable at the door. See below for a list of recommended places to stay and eat in McMinnville if you'd like to hang around for the evening. A more delightful summer getaway so close to home I could not imagine. I hope you can join us for part or all of this magnificent weekend.
