Restorative Yin with Karen

Mondays @ 9:30am

Yin yoga is a healing practice that increases mobility in the joints, ligaments and fascial networks. This passive practice moves one into stillness, allowing healthful benefits to occur in the body as well as the mind.

This Yin practice provides the opportunity to slow
down and give yourself the ultimate gift, the gift of creating space in the body and the mind that may not have been there before. Take the time to connect with the present moment, and notice how your perspective begins to shift.

This challenging practice will leave you relaxed, energized and mindfully at peace.

Tai Chi Gung with Carrie 

Thursdays @ 10:30am

Tai Chi Gung is a very simple form of the practice developed by Lao Tzu. Over 3,300 years ago, he humbled himself and took his yogic disciplines into nature and let the Divine Mother teach him how the chi could be mined from the earth to achieve healing, health, and longevity. If trees can live for hundreds of years, he pondered, then they know something he needed to know. The movements are gentle yet powerful because they focus specifically on how the life force moves in nature. This is what is handed down to us: unchanged, undiluted, and unadulterated. It is the perfect companion to your current practices.
Carrie invites you to explore how this fluency of motion based on Truth, Simplicity, and Love can exponentially improve your health and expand your awareness of who you are and what you are here to do– no matter your age; no matter where you have been; no matter who you have been or perceive yourself to be. Reach out to Carrie for more information or with questions: carriemurray153@gmail.com

Yoga for Gentle Grounding with Rachel

Fridays @ 10am

Yoga for Gentle Grounding offers a gentle, balanced combination of yoga poses, stretching, conscious breathing, and intervals of relaxation and reflection. We will emphasize seated and reclined poses, offering us the opportunity to connect with the earth and feel rooted in our bodies. Supported by the ground and within ourselves, we will cultivate calmness, while continuing to build strength and flexibility.

This class is suitable for all practitioners. Beginners to yoga are welcome, as are those with somewhat reduced mobility. There are also benefits for more experienced yogis who would like the time and space afforded by a slow-paced class to enter deeply into the poses and to practice grounding and reconnecting with themselves.

Yin Yoga with Mary June

Fridays @ Noon

“Harmony exists only when yin and yang are in balance.” 

Yin is a slow-paced and therapeutic style of yoga that uses a specific series of floor poses held for a length of time to provide a “deep tissue massage” for the body that also calms and balances mind, body, and soul. From this class, you will also see these benefits:
  • Improves flow of prana (energy) to the vital organs and the entire body
  • Releases fascia, therefore improving joint mobility and enhancing range of motion
  • Increases circulation and helps alleviate pain, stiffness, and tension
  • Less stress and anxiety and a deeper connection to self
  • A “workout” for your connective tissue, lubricating and lengthening tendons, ligaments, and fascia that don’t respond to more active forms of yoga or other exercises (yang)
