Cool Drink

5/16/2018

I have to admit I love all the seasons. I love winter because the cold is so invigorating. I love fall because the cool breeze and light in the multi-colored trees is so radiant. Spring is the season of my birth but also the beauty of newness rebounding from winter. I love summer because it’s summer and that means fun in the sun. When I have a beach to enjoy, then surfs up, but without a beach I enjoy the soft summer grass under bare feet and a nice cool drink.

Speaking of cool drinks, I have a standard summer favorite: Traditional Pimm’s Cup. You can find the recipe and a non-alcoholic alternative below. Cheers - Sláinte - Skål

Pimm’s Cup
1 Tom Collin’s Glass w/ice
1.5 oz Pimm’s
Top off with Ginger Ale or 7Up
Stir & Garnish with Lemon

Pimm’s Light (non-alcoholic)
1.5 oz Ginger Beer or Ginger Ale
1.5 oz Black Tea
1/2 tsp Balsamic Vinegar
1/2 tsp Dark Brown Sugar or Simple Syrup
Lemonade or 7Up to fill
Lemon for Garnish

Combine tea and sugar to make a syrup, then in a Tom Collin’s glass combine syrup with Ginger Beer and Vinegar. Top off with Lemonade, stir and garnish with lemon.

"Tom's class is a revelation. He helped me to make subtle adjustments in postures that I had been doing incorrectly for years, producing major results in my overall practice. His teaching style is both focused and relaxed and his class is really fun! I'm new to Nashville and I'm so happy to have found this class. Thank you Tom."

If you step into one of Tom Larkin’s classes, you can expect to not only get an amazing workout, but laugh and be entertained. One word to describe Tom is “hilarious,” but another word is “caring.” Tom can somehow focus on each one of his students in a 20-person class. He manages to make everyone feel welcome – but don’t worry, he will catch you if you are “cheating” in a hard pose. Oh, yeah, and Tom is an incredible yogi who can jump into challenging poses without even warming up.

They bring an amazing combination of strength and compassion to their team teaching and their energies compliment each other beautifully. Their transmission is a perfect combination of their current teacher and the variety of other styles and practices that that have influenced them. As a teacher and studio owner myself it was inspiring to see how they infused their class with a life of its own and how they were able to create such a noticeably collective experience. I truly believe that they have inspired a new movement of yoga here in the North West and I hope to have the opportunity to welcome them again to the growing community that they helped create.
