Wellness involves continued growth and balance in all eight of the dimensions. When
thinking about wellness, many people think of the physical aspects such as nutrition,
exercise, weight management, blood pressure, etc.

However, wellness includes physical, mental and spiritual components interwoven
together. Each of the eight dimensions impact each other and contribute to overall
wellness and quality of life. It is important to learn how to take care of yourself in every part
of your life. Bringing safe and gentle movement into the body helps to open us up any
many ways,
we begin to feel "unstuck", alive and light. This class incorporates
optional dialogue and is safe for all.

A nurturing class involving some support and props, combined with easy poses
and breathing techniques
in order to achieve gradual but deep physical and mental
release, healing and opening. A very Gentle approach to Yoga and structured for the
expecting Mom as well! It is a time for connecting, nurturing, slowing down and learning
tools to relax.
These are not just basic stretches. Their intention is to detoxify and nourish the body's
organs. We'll do some standing stretches as well as seated stretches anchored with a
final relaxation. No experience necessary.
New depths in postures, deeper ranges of motion, or an increased flow of energy may
only be achievable by focusing on the deeper tissues of the body.  This class is suitable
for beginners and those with stiffer bodies because of its
slower pace.

The poses are held longer, giving time for the body’s deep, dense tissue to soften
and release.
  Yin Yoga is highly beneficial for the body’s connective tissue, including the
joints and ligaments.
In yogic philosophy, the term Self is the place before we added personality, ego and life
experiences. In this class (
we call the Every other Friday night slumber) we will
stretch in therapeutic movements and anchor the class in a restoring posture combined
with a guided meditation.  A perfect
prenatal yoga practice for ALL trimesters! This
class is great for those who are new to yoga, recovering from injuries or trauma,
seeking stress relief, restoring their bodies from a more vigorous practice, as well
as those interested in exploring stillness
Truly for every body...."re-set" your body in
this meditative and balancing class.  This is not a traditional restorative yoga class, but a
combination of gentle stretches and restorative.

The secret to vibrant health is the breath!  The breath is a powerful part of our bodies and
by learning how to work with the breath it can be very beneficial in
calming the mind
and emotions.  
Have you ever noticed that when you get angry or upset your breath
becomes short?  Pranayama is the Sanskrit term for breath control of one's life force.  
That force nourishes our bodies with oxygen, makes us want to move, and just plain live.  
Our breath is our life force so why not learn how to work with it instead of against it?  This
class is an introduction to Pranayama and Meditation.  
We will learn how to sit in quiet
contemplation and focus on the control of our life force.
 

Open to those already practicing Pranayama and Meditation.  Caution: Be ready to
experience clarity and mindfulness in your daily life after class. Come breathe with us on
Tuesday evenings and
sit in silent   s u r r e n d e r………  Returning in the Summer
You do not need previous experience.
This class combines the
ancient arts of Tai-Chi and Qi-Gong. Tai Chi is rhythmic
patterns of movement coordinated with the breath to achieve a
sense of inner calm.
The concentration required for Tai Chi forces you to
live in the present moment.
Qi-Gong is gentle physical postures that align and integrate the breath through focused
intention. Benefits of both that promote overall
feelings of well being are...improved
balance, flexibility, muscle strength and reduced blood pressure, anxiety, and
depression.
Philosophically, Tai Chi and Qi-Gong are believed to help develop human
potential and increase higher realms of awareness. Tai Chi and Qi Gong meet in your
body and mind.

Slip into physical and mental peace......
This 2 hour workshop of what i like to call 'Quiet Yoga" evokes the healing relaxation
response through gentle yoga positions combined with conscious breathing and guided
meditation.
Unlike traditional yoga, restorative yoga uses props such as pillows, blankets, and
bolsters to
support the body. While fully supported, the body is invited to drop into
deep stillness,
and the mind is guided in healing thoughts, sensations and emotions.
The supported body can fully let go into each pose, relaxing even the deepest layers of
tension.
.  The benefits of this workshop are deep relaxation, release of stress and
tension, and a calming effect on many systems of the body.
This class is great for
those who are
new to yoga, recovering from injuries or trauma, seeking stress
relief, restoring their bodies from a more vigorous practice, as well as those
interested in exploring stillness.
A perfect prenatal yoga practice for ALL trimesters
as well!
I highly suggest you do not have plans after this workshop. Continue to restore in your

connective tissue, joints and acupuncture meridians through long held passive postures
blended with breath and body awareness.   The
yang yoga is an active practice that
incorporates the discipline of the breath and mental focus to build strength, balance and
flexibility.  The entire  practice will include a mixture of pranayama, pratapana, flows and
long held postures. Join our Monday night 90 minutes class incorporating a wonderful
balance of both! Drop on in!  All Levels
