VegaYoga Voted Best Place for Yoga 2011

Acupuncture at VegaYoga - A short hiatus

Mark will be taking a short hiatus, but hopes to be taking appointments once again in 2012.
What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is an Eastern Medical Art used for thousands of years to treat pain and other diseases. Since coming to the West it has become one of the fastest growing healthcare therapies. Acupuncture involves the painless insertion of sterile, single-use, micro-fine needles to assist the body’s natural healing abilities. Treatments have been shown to release endorphins more powerful than morphine, while producing states of deep relaxation. Clients are often amazed at how painless, peaceful, and effective acupuncture treatments can be.
How Can Acupuncture Help You?
The National Institute of Health (NIH) and the World Health Organization have found acupuncture to be effective in the treatment of over 60 medical conditions, including:
Stress Digestive Respiratory Pain
Insomnia IBS Allergies Sciatica
Fatigue Weight Management Asthma Knee Pain
Depression Constipation Cold/Flu Arthritis
Anxiety Diarrhea Sinusitis Joint Pain
Addictions Nausea Rhinitis Headache

Holyoke Plus:
Rockette gives tap-dance lessonsWednesday, October 06, 2010
By MIKE PLAISANCE
mplaisance@repub.com
HOLYOKE - If you've ever wanted to take tap-dancing lessons from a world-famous Radio City Rockette, now is your chance.
Debra Vega, 39, of Holyoke, was a Rockette in 1998, 1999, 2005 and 2006 and is using her skills to teach a beginners tap-dancing course for teenagers and adults that began on Sept. 14 and runs every Tuesday through mid-June.
"I like to throw in little tid-bits as the class goes through, like, 'I remember dancing on the stage ...,'" Vega said.
Vega Yoga & Movement Arts, which is at 4 Open Square Way, Studio 221, is offering the course with the Massachusetts Academy of Ballet, which is also at Open Square Way in Studio 403.
The tap-dancing lessons will be in Studio 403. No tap shoes are required.
Various fee packages are available depending on the number of classes taken.
"Tap not only is great excercise, good for coordination and good for the brain, it's also upbeat, lively and a lot of fun," Vega said.
Having been part of an internationally renown dance troupe like the Rockettes means she can impart knowledge such as the hard work needed to maintain the physical and mental focus vital to a months-long performance
schedule, she said.
"It was really an honor because the Rockettes are such an institution. As a dancer, it's one of the pinnacles," she said.
Vega is co-director of Vega Yoga & Movement Arts with husband Aaron M. Vega, who is a member of City Council.
Various histories say that the Rockettes group began in St. Louis and was known as the Missouri Rockets. Upon hitting New York City, they were the Roxyettes and were the Rockettes when they debuted at Radio City Music Hall on Dec. 27, 1932.
The Rockettes are the stars of the Radio City Christmas Spectacular seen by more than 2 million people a year and in more than 60 cities in North America each year, according to rockettes.com
They have performed their intricately synchronized dances at presidential inaugurations, Super Bowl half-time shows and the Tony Awards.
Holyoke Plus:

By STEPHANIE CHELF
HOLYOKE - Inside a renovated mill building, city teens are experiencing yoga for the first time, learning how skills of meditation, relaxation and deep breathing can help them overcome everyday challenges.
"Take with you what you can and leave behind what you don't need. Namaste," said Aaron Vega, owner of Vega Yoga, wrapping up an hour-long class with teens from the Robert F. Kennedy Children's Action Corps' Experiment With Travel School.
During the month of May, the students from Experiment With Travel, a special-education day school in Holyoke, traveled to Vega Yoga for their first-ever series of yoga classes. The program was made possible by a community outreach grant Vega's studio received.
“We're giving the skills of yoga to teens who never had access to it before," Vega said. "It's a calming, peaceful experience for them."
Vega will teach 70 such classes this year to Holyoke teens, thanks to a $5,000 grant from the Community Foundation of Western Massachusetts and a $500 grant from the Save Yoga Network.
In addition to the students from the Robert F. Kennedy Children's Action Corps program, Vega Yoga will teach free classes to teens from Girls' Inc., the Holyoke Boys & Girls Club and Youth Build, among others.
The students from the Experiment With Travel School face a variety of emotional, behavioral, and educational challenges and were referred to the school by their local school districts. The school has 18 students from age 12 to 21. It is one of the 19 programs run by the Kennedy Children's Action Corps, a child welfare and juvenile justice agency in Massachusetts.
In one of the final classes of the program, Vega led five students along with senior clinician Megan Lutz and the school's program director, Dave Madeloni, through an hour of traditional breathing techniques of yoga and a series of stretching and balancing poses.
"And, you can use this pose when you feel stressed," said Vega, as he led the students onto the floor for "child's pose."
Student Tamara, a 17-year-old from Holyoke, said the weekly class was relaxing and helped her get through the day.
"I like the calmness of it. I feel good after," Tamara said. "It releases stress and keeps me going. When I get mad, I think about the class and it calms me."
Tamara said she has used deep breathing and other skills from yoga to deal with stress at school and home.
"The ability to relax is a skill and yoga is teaching that skill to our students," said Madeloni. "Our students have had bad experiences in schools in the past. Going to yoga is a good experience for them. We hope they continue to take all those skills of mindfulness, breathing and relaxation techniques back to school with them."
Vega Yoga Receives Community Foundation Grant For Outreach
Thanks to the talents of our grant writer and fellow yogi, Jessica Berger, Vega Yoga & Movement Arts received, not one, but TWO GRANTS to be used toward community outreach with the urban population of teens in Holyoke.
Working with such great organizations as Holyoke Health Center, Girl's Inc, The Care Center, Nuestras Raices/Youth Build, and Midwifery Care of Holyoke, Vega Yoga will be able to provide FREE YOGA to the teens whom these organizations work with.
$5,000 was given by the Community Foundation of Western Massachusetts and $500 was given by the Mass Yoga Network SEVA Grant. Classes will be taught by Aaron, Debra, Jessica, or Michelle and will include yoga for teens, pre-natal yoga and meditation classes.
Debra and Aaron are thrilled at the possiblity of helping hundreds of teens throughout the next year to be able to discover the joys and benefits of yoga!

Prenatal yoga classes are more popular than ever. When paired with a cardiovascular exercise such as walking, yoga can be an ideal way to stay in shape during your pregnancy.
This age-old practice keeps you limber, tones your muscles, and improves your balance and circulation, with little, if any, impact on your joints.
Yoga is also beneficial because it helps you learn to breathe deeply and relax, which will come in handy as you face the physical demands of labor, birth, and motherhood

The RelaxAbility Handbook - Book Release Event
Local yoga teacher, Jessica Sarfaraz Berger publishes The RelaxAbility Handbook, gives free stress reduction demo at Vega Yoga and Movement Arts September 9th, 5:30 pm.
Jessica Sarfaraz Berger is an American writer, registered yoga teacher, registered nurse, and stress reduction facilitator with more than 25 years experience as a health professional. She is the author of two wellness columns: ‘The Nurse is In’, for VMAG, and ‘For Your Health’ of The Journal Bravo for Reminder Publications.
Berger currently heads the multi-media stress-reduction company All Things Relaxation and will be teaching The RelaxAbility Technique at Holyoke Community College on September 12th, 2011.
Ten years ago, Jessica needed to find a way to calm down fast while working as a pediatric nurse at Cooley Dickinson Hospital. Co-workers had just reported her to the nursing supervisor for “appearing too anxious”, a mortifying turning point that would catalyze a decade long search for anti-anxiety remedies that could be used right on the job.
Working in the fields of nursing, then fitness, and finally yoga, Berger researched, practiced, and taught numerous stress reduction techniques before publishing the RelaxAbility Handbook, now available on Amazon dot com. The small sized, large print book fits easily into a handbag, yet offers a cornucopia of remedies for everything from insomnia, anger, and depression to anxiety, addictions, and pain.

The book can be used on its own, or as an accompaniment to Jessica’s CD, Sublime Relaxations Volume I, which has sold in the USA, Australia, Canada, and the UK.
The public is welcome to attend a free introduction to the RelaxAbility Technique at the upcoming Book Release Party at Vega Yoga and Movement Arts 4 Open Square Way Studio 221 on Friday, September 9th, 2011.
To register for the stress reduction class at Holyoke Community College, go to http://www.hcc.edu/community-and-business/personal-enrichment-registration.
and type ‘The RelaxAbility Technique’ into the search bar.
For more information, visit www.allthingsrelaxation.com or contact Jessica Sarfaraz Berger at (413) 527-1869.
“Jessica Berger’s… perspective is fresh and reality based”
-The American News Service
“The RelaxAbility Handbook should be required reading for anyone who cares about their health and well-being. Berger dishes it out straight, imparting wisdom and information without condescension or aloofness. Great bedside manner.”
-Stephen Murphy, Writer, Harvey Award Nominee
“Sublime Relaxations (the CD to accompany the RelaxAbility Handbook) got me through an incredibly stressful time of almost debilitating anxiety as I started a new job in a new career. With Jessica, I was able to get through each day stronger than the day before, better at my job and more open to those around me. And, I could finally get some sleep!”
-Kate Blume, Middle School Teacher, San Diego, CA
“I absolutely loved listening to this CD! As a college student I found it relaxing both while studying and lying in bed trying to fall asleep. The variety of exercises was perfect and I really enjoyed how the end of the CD was for deep relaxation- perfect for at night. This combination of exercises really helped me to stay relaxed during finals and I feel like I performed that much better on my exams.”
-Lauren Brzozowski, College Student, New England
