This gentle, all-levels mat class will begin with a slow warm-up that will help us become grounded and focused on our breathing. We will gradually move into a sequence of seated, standing, and reclining postures that foster flexibility, balance, and strength, using our breath to guide our movement. Suggestions will be offered for modifying and substituting poses to enhance participants’ comfort and benefit. We will conclude with a period of reclining rest and reflection.

This is an inclusive gentle class designed for anyone focusing on healing and stress reduction, regardless of his/her condition or level of physical ability. This class integrates asanas (seated and standing), breathing practices, mindfulness, guided meditation, and relaxation techniques, all as a therapy not only for the body but for the mind and soul, allowing you to feel both relaxed and energized at the same time. Focusing beyond postural practice the class seeks to offer through Yoga, a sanctuary, a laboratory, an opportunity, a place for contemplation, and the expression of compassion and respect for ourselves and for life itself. It is also an opportunity to cultivate ease in the body and quiet in the mind, which will give you a greater sense of wellbeing. Recommended props: a mat, a sturdy, stable chair, a blanket, and a pillow.
