Classes are taught by Evelyn Van Antwerp M.Ed., Since yoga is very much a personal experience and one based on levels of ability, her endeavor is to teach to the needs of individual students by modifying poses. Her classes are designed for both newcomers and seasoned practitioners. Each class focuses on proper alignment and breathing techniques, with an emphasis on core body strength. Her goal as an instructor is for all of her students to experience the full benefits of yoga.
Evelyn started practicing yoga many years ago because of its benefits for the back and neck difficulties she was experiencing, and soon discovered that the benefits were far greater than just addressing her physical well-being. For Evelyn, yoga has become an avenue for self-knowledge, self-love, awareness and physical well-being. She has a Masters in Curriculum, with over 20 years in education teaching students and adults, becoming a certified yoga instructor was the perfect choice for her. Evelyn studied with Yoga Acharya Tej Monga, Anand Mehrotra and Judith Lasater. She received her 200-hour and 500-hour Yoga Alliance Certification through Namah Shivaya Yoga. She has complete 600 hours in Ayurvedic Counseling.

All kids can pick up a free snack pack at the Library Park from Pine River Shares every Tuesday from June 6-August 8 (except July 4).
The Pine River Library in Bayfield will host a Death Cafe at 1pm on Tuesday, February 20th.A Death Cafe is where people come to share refreshments and discuss death openly and honestly. The aim is to increase awareness about death in order to help people make the most of their (finite) lives.
There is never an intention of leading participants to any conclusion, product or course of action. A Death Café is not a bereavement support or grief counseling setting, nor is it a place to give people information about death and dying. It is not for people who, for whatever reason, are unwilling to discuss the subject of death comfortably and openly. Interesting conversations are guaranteed! These events are facilitated by Lola Montano, a registered nurse who is pursuing her hospice certification and is interested in becoming a death doula. Join us every third Tuesday of the month from 1-2:30 pm.
Come stop by the shed in the library parking lot our weekly popup book sale! There are many wonderful books to choose from!
