Wednesday, May 14, 2025 Stevenson Athletic Center, Classroom 112:00 pm – 1:00 pm EDT/GMT-4 NO CLASS ON JANUARY 15 This class blends optimal alignment with the movement and grace of Vinyasa flow. Class includes seated, standing, and supine poses. The Vinyasa segment moves at a moderate pace allowing alignment cues to be woven in. A slower flow is accessible for newer students and allows more experienced students to refine their poses.
Thursday, May 15, 2025 Stevenson Athletic Center, Classroom 110:00 am – 11:00 am EDT/GMT-4 This class is about listening to the body and focusing on form and breathwork to create a moving meditation. We will combine pranayama (breathwork practices) with a gentle flow, to create a space of solace from stress and anxiety. The class will be a mixture of hatha postures and dynamic sequences, with lots of variations and alternatives, allowing students to shape their own practice. Some classes will also end with sound baths before silent meditation.
