Mindfully Moving Yoga (60-minute virtual class on Zoom)

A gentle Hatha Yoga class taught by Robin which includes the use of props to assist in making poses more accessible and to bring more ease into the body and comfort in the mind. Props suggested to have available for use are a yoga mat, two yoga blocks, a bolster or a couple of throw or bed pillows, a strap, resistance band or a soft belt, at least one blanket and a sturdy chair without arms.

Aerial Yoga (60-minute class)
ON HIATUS
Aerial Yoga is a type of yoga which uses a hammock (or looped fabric) that swivels freely on a single point, allowing you to deepen your stretch, correct your alignment and safely perform inversions. This form of yoga can be a therapeutic tool individually or in group classes improving balance, strength, flexibility, circulation; reducing inflammation; and inviting a sense of liberation from tension, stress, anxiety and fear. This class is taught by Lisa.
