We will meet the second Friday of every month, devoting a full hour and fifteen minutes to rejuvenating body, mind, and spirit through meditation (both guided and silent) and held postures designed to balance the chakra system. Everyone is welcome no matter what your experience with yoga is or physical ability. Bring an open mind and a desire to breathe deeply.

Restorative Yoga: Restorative Yoga is a practice of being, rather than doing, helping to relieve the effects of stress and bring the body, mind and spirit into harmony and balance. A short, gentle asana warm-up will relax and prepare mind and body to receive the benefits that Restorative Yoga offers. Class will usually end with a short guided meditation, and supported Savasana.
