Our Aura comprises seven energetic fields that surround the body. Every person’s aura is as unique as a blueprint. Just like other subtle energy systems, it needs to be cleansed, purified and strengthened. Keeping our AURA strong is as important as taking our vitamins. Come and learn about your "protective spacesuit" and practice simple exercises that introduce "boundaries", improve self-regulation, promote self-compassion, strengthen immunity, and keep negative energies from spiraling inward. Classes are highly engaging and FUN. INSTRUCTOR: Mary Schwoerer

If there's one tool we use above all others, it's the knife. If you only had two tools to take into the woods, you may select a knife and an axe. Knives and axes are generally made of metal, which can be sharpened using a hard stone, or a factory-made sharpening-block.

Learn how to sharpen knives, axes, pruners, scissors, and other blade tools. Bring your own dull tools that need to be touched up, or come to practice sharpening on some of our tools and stones. We'll cover the basic theory behind sharpening edge tools, and practice using a variety of sharpening stones. Whetstones will also be available for purchase.

** BROCHURE CORRECTION: Cost of the class is $45, not $55.
