Spring Awakenings at Soulfire!
Intro to Yin Yoga Friday, April 18 | 9:00-10:30 AM| $20 Experience the quiet wisdom of Yin Yoga—a practice of presence, surrender, and deep release. Through longer-held, mostly floor-based postures, Yin practice invites you to fully let go-targeting deep layers of fascia, connective tissue, and joints. Like acupressure for the body, it stimulates energy pathways (meridians), restoring fluidity, balance, and flow. In this class, you’ll learn the principles of Yin and how to approach the practice with mindfulness and ease. Simple. Supportive. Deeply nourishing. Perfect for beginners and seasoned practitioners alike.

The studio “Dancing in the Desert, LLC” arose from a combination of the owner’s passion for dancing, shared by many of the locals in greater Abiquiu, and the lack of a place where this could actually be put to practice. “Build it and they will come.” The ‘Dance Studio with a View’ (a view that only the Georgia O’Keeffe Country offers) has the finest sprung floor in the area. The studio lends itself ideally to any other movement exercises and at present dancing is complemented by yoga, DanceMeditation, and Jazzercise. We are certainly receptive to other forms of movement modalities in the future.

Birding
While Abiquiu might not be known as a birding destination it should be. With a diversity of habitat Abiquiu is home for a number of birds year round and many more that are migratory. Birding (click) Boating
Abiquiu Lake
Abiquiu Lake offers boating opportunities for motorized and non-motorized craft. While summer weekend can be busy, weekday morning you'll often feel as if you have the lake to yourself. The Chama The river below the dam is navigable. You should always wear a PFD. There are diversion dams and some rocky parts that you should portage and scout in advance. Respect private property. Check out the USGS for river levels. The Chama below the dam is best floated when the flow is over 600 CFS Fishing
Abiquiu offers fishing opportunities in all seasons on both the Abiquiu Lake and Chama River.Fishing licenses are available online at the Department of Game and Fish. Chama River Fly Fishing the Rio Chama River - Abiquiu Reservoir Tailwater, depending on the releases from the dam. The water is can be too high but if the levels are good, trout fishing is usually good. The Rio Chama has some nice sections of riffles, runs and pools. It also has some islands that divert the water into channels and add interesting areas of good habitat for the brown trout. There is public access on both side of river with the best being accessed from the area across from the Army Corps of Engineers Visitors' Center. Follow 84 north to 96, turn left. Across from the Visitors center take the road down to the river. High clearance is recommended on the road. Abiquiu Lake can be excellent for Walleye, Small Mouth Bass, Rainbow and Brown Trout. Check out what they are catching and what they are using on the Fishing Report. Hiking
Several larger trail systems begin or pass through Abiquiu and are worth noting. In 1829 Abiquiu became the embarkation point for the Old Spanish trail, the 1,200 mile trade route that linked Santa Fe and Los Angeles. Supplies and guides were obtained. Antonio Armijo, following a number of Native American Trails, became the first to establish a trade route to California. More information about the trail can be found here. Today you can still hike that part of the trail that goes from Abiquiu and follows a road along the Chama six miles to Abiquiu Reservoir. The Continental Divide trail also skirts Abiquiu while the biking trail goes through it. Hikers find welcome respite, camping and a chance to resupply. Hikes in and around Abiquiu are abundant, with two National Forests, BLM Land and Ghost Ranch, the choices are endless. For both the seasoned hiker and novice, it is important to be prepared. Bring water, wear a hat and sunscreen. Hike with a friend or let someone know where you are hiking and when you will return. Remember that your are hiking in high desert and the temperatures can drop 40 degrees at night. Be prepared, and then go out and have some fun seeing the Abiquiu less traveled. Abiquiú Wildflower Hikes
Hiking Through Wildflowers in the Environs of Abiquiú, New Mexico by Marilyn Phillips "In 2016 I started publishing a weekly Bloom Blog in the Abiquiú News to let folks know what is blooming in the area. Since then I have photographed and described over 230 flowers and trees. To a casual observer this area appears to be a dry, rocky, sandy habitat of colorful cliffs, canyons and scrubland; saltbush and cactus studded with piñon and juniper trees." Read more. Rafting
