Ceil Drucker celebrated the opening of her new Terlingua business, Desert Lotus Healing Arts, with a grand opening “pie & chai” reception on January 29. Drucker is pleased to offer morning and evening classes to the public at the new studio (below), located at the mall near the Big Bend Motor Inn at the intersection of Hwys 118 and 170.

Drucker (a regular Big Bend Gazette contributor - search this site for her stories!) first studied yoga in Hawaii over ten years ago, and became a yoga instructor via a teacher training course at Seven Centers Yoga Arts in Sedona, Arizona.

Drucker and other instructors will offer classes in several different types of yoga, meditation, Tai Chi, and QiGong, for $8 drop-in fee (sliding scale for fees available). Schedule of classes will be posted around town and on the studio's website. Massage therapy is also available on site. For more information, call (432) 371-2160. (Marlys Hersey)
