There will be free classes all day in several types of yoga and meditation, plus an acro-yoga show thatll demonstrate a dynamic way to loosen up a too-tight back.

And, speaking of being too-tight and the aches and pains that go with them, relief will be in sight here, with free holistic treatments all day, including Thai massage, acupuncture, Shiatsu Shin Tai, Qi Healing and Reiki.

And: a free organic lunch will be provided.

Its a perfect opportunity to try out yoga and treat yourself to a holistic healing mini-session, said Carolyn Cohen, owner and director of Jaya Healing Arts & Yoga Studio, which will host the open house this Saturday (Feb. 1) from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Jaya studio is on the second floor of 21 Bridge St. in Lambertville.

Ms. Cohen and a partner will do the acro-yoga demonstration.

The flier is held aloft, at the base of his or her spine, on the feet of a partner who is lying on a mat with his or her legs held perpendicular to the floor.

The feet are at the base of the fliers spine, Ms. Cohen said. By being loose in this position, the flier can release compression in their spine. Acro-yoga can also help the lower back of the base thats the partner whos holding the flier aloft.

Kundalini yoga is one of the other types of yoga that will be taught Saturday.

Kundalini is focused on internal cleansing, Ms. Cohen said. It focuses on the endocrine and lymph systems. Its less physical than other types of yoga.

Other classes will be in alignment vinyasa, warm vinyasa, yoga nidra and qi gong.
