Since Fall
of l989 yoga classes have been taught in the space we now call The Yoga
Loft. Gary
Domby, D.C., began teaching yoga to some of his Chiropractic patients
one evening per week in the room above Scappoose Chiropractic Clinic. In Spring of 1993 Chris Eisenschmidt began teaching
with some beginner's classes. Now several classes are offered
each week.
Our
yoga classes have never been advertised, only promoted through word
of mouth and by virtue of happy yogis and yoginis. Our classroom
is small, accommodating 7 or 8 students comfortably, and well equipped
with props - mats, blankets, blocks, straps and bolsters. We like
to think that our atmosphere is friendly, supportive and inspiring.

Style:
The Yoga Loft does not feature one particular style of yoga,
rather an eclectic blend of Hatha Yoga, as the result of the varied
studies of the instructors. We have been influenced by Iyengar
Yoga, Tri-Yoga, Ashtanga, Svaroopa, and others.
Fees:
Our schedule is published quarterly, and although we run a session
for each season, anyone may join in or drop in anytime. Our rates
are $9.00 per class, or $40.00 for 5 classes, paid in advance, or $160
for unlimited classes within a three month period.
Location:
The studio is on the second level of the Scappoose Chiropractic
Clinic Building located at 52481 SW First St., Scappoose, OR,
97056. Access to The Yoga Loft is through the right hand entrance
to the building.
