Farewell Belladonna
Farewell Belladonna was created in the summer of 2011, in an attempt to transform what acoustic has come to be. Drawing from elements of Rock, Jazz, Bluegrass and Folk music they have invented their very own unique sound. Their collection of songs includes both original material and pieces adopted from both punk rock and traditional genres. Farewell Belladonna is very much a group focused on performance and entertaining an audience no matter how big or small it may be.
Departing from their early endeavors in heavily synthesized rock and blues, founding members of Farewell Belladonna united out on a back porch in Reno, NV to cut out the frills and pay homage to the greats of folk, country, rock and blues that came before them with a streamlined, totally acoustic, portable, setup.

Jelena Hardy Yoga
I teach yoga as a dynamic and physically challenging flowing practice that allows the internal movement of the breath to carry the external movement of the body. As the life force is intensified and stilled, and the mind is calm and focused, the physical practice becomes a dynamic form of meditation. Challenging the body and mind to find a balance between effort and surrender imbues the physical practice with lightness and grace. On the mat we learn to focus, to trust the breath, to still the mind and to invite the true self to guide us. The rewards of our yoga practice become evident as we take the lessons we learn on the mat and apply them off the mat, where our real practice is. This process of self-realization and union with the divine is the essence of yoga.
Jelena has since opened Rishi Yoga in Reno, NV. Visit her site here.
