Om Shanti Yoga of Lodi is a
mother and daughter joint vision and divine partnership. Having
both been deeply integrated in the Silicon Valley High Tech
suburbs for over 20 years – these yoga chicks
have sought peace and balance through varied yogic
practices while dancing day to day with the chaos of this mystic
fiction they call life. Together they wanted to
share their combined knowledge and passion for deeper self
exploration with the community in which they
live. Their vision for a yogic divine hospitality center
called to their hearts. They transformed a beautiful
Victorian home into a sacred oasis.
They now offer at Om
Shanti Yoga Center, a variety of yoga classes that focus on
a person’s inner journey of self exploration. Their
classes concentrate on body acceptance, body awareness,
health, and inner peace. They offer a variety of
classes with varying levels. Kid's Yoga, The Yoga
Remedy, Dynamic Flow, Yin, Prenatal, Partner yoga, and
Friday Night Delight are among the classes offered. A
six-week series for beginners can Jump Start your
practice. Om Shanti Yoga also provides additional
wellness programs to promote a healthy and serene lifestyle,
such as meditation, Qi Gong, Sound Therapy and partner
massage workshops.
"Our
vision is to maintain a peaceful, supportive & safe
center for learning and self exploration while serving our
community through yoga, inspirational events and wellness
programs."

| Deb Marweg is a
Registered Yoga Teacher with Yoga Alliance. She has
been practicing for over 12 years. Deb opened Now
and Zen Yoga Spa in 2004. Deb’s classes are a mixed
style, using the philosophy of BKS Iyengar by offer
modifications using props (chairs, blocks, bolsters, etc.)
to make sure students have proper
alignment
in their poses to not only be safe but to experience the
full benefit of yoga.
She
also teaches with the intent of Vinyoga, making sure
that each student is working within their ability even if
it means expressing the pose differently or even finding a
different pose to get the same benefit. Her mixed level
and level 2/3 classes are enhanced by incorporating
Vinyasa flow to classes as well. Her gentle and
therapeutic yoga classes do not have the vinyasa flow
element and we stay away from poses that put pressure on
the joints of the wrists and knees. Deb feels that
yoga can be for every body, and enjoys teaching specialty
classes to meet the needs of those who traditional classes
are not beneficial. Deb lives in Woodbridge with her
husband and two children. |
