OSO presents "MUSICAL GIANTS"
With a prodigious talent that is equal to the demands of Rachmaninoff’s towering Third Piano Concerto, Jaeden Izik-Dzurko — fresh off wins at no less than five international piano competitions — makes his first appearance with the OSO since he performed in 2019 for our CD, Canadian Soundscapes. The Okanagan Symphony Youth Orchestra joins the OSO onstage for their annual Side-by-Side performance in Wagner’s majestic Die Meistersinger to close this blockbuster show
Restorative Yoga + Massage
Candlelight Gentle Yoga with Massage & Tea! Join Aleena McKinnon & Tayler Sawchuk for an evening of pure bliss!! Aleena McKinnon with Buddha Beats Yoga will guide you through a gentle yoga class, while Tayler will massage you in your yoga poses to relax and melt away your stress. This class will be 90 minutes of pure surrender and peace. Yoga and massage have a lot in common. Yoga is actually a form of self-massage. You lengthen and breathe space into your tight areas. You massage the internal organs through bending and twisting, breathing nourishing breaths throughout the entire session. Both yoga and massage detoxify the body, increasing circulation in the blood and lymphatic system. After your candlelight class, we will have some tea and relax and connect.
Tayler is a registered massage therapist (RMT) passionate about health and wellness for the mind, body and soul. Tayler also has completed a Degree in Human Kinetics and currently works as a certified group fitness and yoga instructor at local studios. She loves connecting with people and empowering them to take care of their physical and mental health. As an RMT, Tayler can provide treatments for a wide variety of conditions using relaxing Swedish techniques, myofascial, neuromuscular therapy, trigger points and prenatal massage in the clinic.
All levels are welcome.
We recommend bringing your yoga mat. Please bring warm clothing and/or a blanket so you can be comfortable and relaxed.
