The class is taught by Carli Astell who has been teaching yoga since 2002. Her classes consist of ashtanga inspired hatha yoga, and vinyasa yoga I and II. In her class the goal is to have fun, be free, and spread love. The class is great for beginners and practiced yogis alike. All levels are welcome and encouraged.

First produced in 1891, Ibsen shocked audiences with this story of a woman seeking earthly power within a society that refuses to acknowledge her inner complexities.

Everybody has to learn a big lesson sometime. The STORYZILLA STORY SHOW invites Bloomington audiences to “Get Schooled” at its September 30th show – its one-year anniversary — at Bear’s Back Room. These are True Stories Well Told by the People Who Lived Them! Tellers for the Storyzilla Anniversary Show, GET SCHOOLED, include BRAD WILHELM, who reveals the educational power of New York City for a 16-year-old boy, and Indy favorite MARY ARMSTRONG-SMITH on the challenges of having “bitchy resting face.” An audience member’s name will be drawn from the Story Hat, so that some lucky person gets to tell their own true story onstage. Bear’s Back Room is 21+.
