About Anthea Center

In Greek mythology, Anthea was a nickname that poets and playwrights used to describe goddesses of healing, and Anthea Yoga & Healing Arts Center aims to live up to that moniker. Within the studio's exposed brick walls, students practice yoga or meditate on earth-green mats as candlelight pirouettes on the windowsills. Down the hall, massage therapists extract tension to reduce excess cortisol—a hormone associated with stress that causes high blood pressure and other maladies. Additionally, founder and center director Sylvia Mouzourou, a certified psychologist, combines her education with energy healing skills to both calm and treat clients. The center also holds regular healing arts events and creative expression classes that help students get in touch with and articulate their emotions and break away from relying on finger puppet dramatization to solve arguments.
