This rare Southern California concert by Ancient Future at Yoga Soup is their first performance in Santa Barbara since 1997. This duet version of the pioneering world fusion music group Ancient Future features scalloped fretboard guitarist Matthew Montfort and santurist Mariah Parker. They will perform music from Ancient Future's broad repertoire, including three current releases on Ancient-Future.Com Records celebrating 30 years of world fusion music: Planet Passion by Ancient Future (remastered to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the band), Seven Serenades for Scalloped Fretboard Guitar by Ancient Future leader Matthew Montfort, and Sangria by Mariah Parker.

Ancient Future is the first and longest running musical organization dedicated exclusively to the mission of creating world fusion music. The term was coined by bandleader Matthew Montfort in 1978 to describe Ancient Future's unusual blend of musical traditions from around the world. BILLBOARD calls the group "trendsetters" for their early contributions to the movement, which seeks to show how people from different cultures can grow by learning from each other. There are more than 12 versions of the band, each with different musicians from different cultures in order to fully explore the varieties of world fusion music. The Ancient Future duet concentrates on Arabic, Indian, and Spanish musical themes, and has performed in Spain at festivals in Sant Carles de la Ràpita, Botarell, Torredembarra, and Salou.

In a humorous and relaxed style, Lori will teach you how to access these stretches throughout your day to ease tension and create calm and increase alignment."

Continuum is a practice using breath, sounding and movement to enter into the fluid system of the body. By opening the tissues in this way we can have a sense of how fluids direct and elicit movements that are unpatterned, creative and nourishing, regardless of body limitations and levels of fitness.

However, as we age and are impacted by every day life stresses and repetitive motion, our body tissues and fluids become compressed and rigid. Within this compression and rigidity, we lose our ability to respond to life in a way that is healthy, adaptive and fluid. Compressed into inflexible patterns the body and mind lose their ability for discovery and creativity.

Continuum seeks to reawaken the fluids within us. First, we use very simple sounds and different types of breaths to open the tissues of the body and we invite the fluids to become more active. Then we pause and go into "Open Attention", where we listen and allow the body to show us how it needs to move to come back into balance.

Continuum is very gentle. It is very restorative. It is very meditative. It is very creative. No matter what your regular practice is, whether it is Yoga, Pilates, running or lifting weights, you will be able to incorporate elements of Continuum to deepen your regular practice, finding nuances and making your daily practice more exciting.

All levels welcome!

She has an extensive background in holistic fitness and is a yoga teacher certified by Ana Forrest and Gary Kraftsow.

The popularity of yogic poses and postures has penetrated many aspects of contemporary health and fitness practices, and many "styles" of this body practice have emerged. The Classical texts of Yoga expound 4 Paths to Self-Realization: the path of Karma Yoga, the path of Bhakti Yoga, the path of Jñana Yoga and the path of Raja Yoga. Raja Yoga is also called the Royal Yoga. This path is the yoga of mastering the mind. Going beyond style and mere physical fitness, this workshop strives to give a fundamental framework of classical raja yoga practice. In this workshop we will explore the 8 limbs of Raja Yoga to revitalize this knowledge and seat its importance centrally to our contemporary practice. Come (re)cognize and (re)collect your mind with the power and wisdom of the Royal Path.

Raja Yoga: The Royal Path part 1 Saturday 9/4: 1:15pm - 4:15pm

Introuduction to Raja Yoga's view of the nature of the mind & "The Eight Limbs" of Raja Yoga. Yama & Niyamas, Asana, Pranayama followed by practice on the mat with Asana, Pranayama, and Meditation.

Raja Yoga: The Royal Path part 2 Sunday 9/5: 1:15pm - 4:15pm

Imagine how you would feel in deep sleep, but being conscious through the entire experience? Yoga Nidra therapy is a powerful healing tool. In this workshop we will utilize a combination of asana practice, breathing, and guided meditation to reach the deepest states of relaxation. It is through the deepest relaxation of mind and body that the fundamental basis on true and deep healing takes place. What we might commonly consider rest and relaxation is far different than the experience of Yoga Nidra.

Short talk, followed by pranayama and asanas, and then extended Sivasana, and Yoga Nidra. Students can bring blankets, eye-masks, and small pillows if they would like, but no sleeping!

From the oldest living city on earth, Varanasi, India, comes an amazing concert performance with one of India's most impressive classical "Raga" musicians, Pandit Vikash Maharaj on Sarod and his son, Prabhash, on Tabla.

There is an architectural brilliance behind the music of India. Raga music is at once vibrant, mesmeric, and sublime, to this day. This ancient living art form has one ambition - to profoundly change the performer and the listener at the deepest level.

The Sarod is a stringed instrument with a deep, weighty, and stirring sound that takes you to the core of your being. The music of these two masters creates enlivenment and a deep sense of peace at the same time.

Pandit Vikash and Prabhash represent the 14th and 15th generations of a family deeply immersed in this sacred musical tradition. They have performed throughout the world and dazzled audiences with their talent, grace and presence.
