Move Well Feel Well Chair Yoga (For a Limited Time)
Combining Chair and Standing yoga, we will explore ways to keep you flexible and mobile using a range of fun props and items you have at home. This class is only offered for eight weeks.
Gentle Yoga
This is a functional, gentle yoga class. The intention of this class is to enhance mobility, and flexibility through slow gentle movement. Some poses will be flowing; moving one pose gently into another. Other poses will be still, allowing for strength and stretch. This class is for any level, and modifications will be offered for any pose that simply is not feeling right. Some of the poses will be standing, some on the floor, or on a chair. *Please bring a yoga mat to class.
Chair Yoga
A gentle, flowing yoga class for all levels. Poses enhance strength, mobility, range-of-motion, and balance. The chair can be used as a prop, or you may remain sitting for the whole class. Pose options and modifications are available throughout the class. This is a very beneficial class for those looking for a gen-tle way to lengthen, and strengthen muscles and ligaments. This class will also help bring an overall sense of balance and calmness. Please bring a water bottle, everything else will be provided. Most of these classes use the chair only, due to the difficulty of getting down or up from the floor.
Yin & Yoga Nidra
is a slow-paced, therapeutic style of yoga. Yin postures are more passive postures, held for a few minutes. In this class we will explore the postures in seated, lying down positions as well using the wall for support. YOGA NIDRA is a form of guided meditation that allows you to scan your body and tap into a state of consciousness as the mind settles in a place between wakefulness and sleep (15 minutes of Nidra = approx. 1 hour of sleep). We will combine these two to create a more relaxing and releasing yo-ga practice throughout the body and mind. *Please bring your own yoga mat to this class*
Self Care Yoga
learn more about self care, breathwork, mindfulness and yoga. In this choice driven trauma informed practice, a grounding mindfulness practice will be introduced ie, body scan, grounding exercise, & breathing exercises. The practice will then move to asana (poses) and pranayama (breath) with variations and modifications being shared. The last 5- 10 minutes will be a shavasna (resting pose) with a mindfulness practice to end the session. No previous yoga experience necessary. Not sure if you will like this pro-gram? Come and try a FREE drop in on Wednesday, January 15th! *Please bring your own yo-ga mat to this class*
