HATHA YOGA AND MEDITATION with Stephanie
Experience relaxation and the joy of moving your body with this 75min Hatha yoga and meditation practice. In Hatha yoga the postures are performed gently and slowly and are typically held longer to get the most benefit. In this contemplative practice you observe the thoughts, emotions, sensations and actions that are in and around you while remaining non-reactive. Classes incorporate a series of warm-up exercises followed by standing, seated and floor postures, ending with guided meditation. This class is running Tuesday mornings, from 9:15 – 10:30am (Oct 29 to Dec 10).
YIN YANG YOGA with Stephanie
Experience the yin and yang energies with this 75min yoga practice. In Yin Yang yoga you feel the joy of moving the body while cultivating presence and deeper awareness of the yin (feminine) and yang (masculine) energies in and around you. The practice includes mindful sun salutations to warm-up the body, followed by a series of standing, seated and floor postures, ending with guided meditation. This class is running Tuesday evenings, from 6:45 – 8:00pm (Nov 5 to Dec 10).
SLOW FLOW YOGA with Alana Frogley – These beginner friendly classes are accessible to all ages and abilities. Slow Flow means just that. Fewer poses with a focus on the breath, bringing us into our bodies and out of the monkey mind. Each class starts with the breath and ends with deep relaxation. This class is scheduled for Thursdays at 6:45pm, and is currently pending registration.
YOGA for CHILDREN WITH ANXIETY with Alana – Alana is in the process of developing a new Yoga concept, which is a supportive Yoga experience for children with anxiety. We plan to offer an information session for parents and set up a schedule for January. Please let us know if you’d like us to put you on the interest list for this new offering!
YOGA WORKSHOP FOR TEENS with Alana – Yoga and breathwork combined with discussions about real issues can give youth the opportunity to focus on themselves and what feels good for them. These workshops will give participants the opportunity to either build on previous Yoga experience or try a new movement practice in a non-competitive and supportive atmosphere. Let us know if this is something you (or your daughter or son) would be interested in!
