YIN YOGA & MINDFULNESS MEDITATION
> Mondays 7:30-8:30pm
A quiet practice combining mindfulness meditation, breathwork and yin yoga to to open and cleanse the body as we transition from the stillness and introspection of the winter season into the renewal, cleansing and opening energy of springtime. An introduction to the meridian system with a focus on the kidney and liver channels, to tonify and cleanse in preparaton for spring. And an introduction to mindfulness practices. Suitable for all levels.
In traditional Chinese Medicine the liver is associated with spring time which is a season of growth and new beginnings. A healthy liver energetically helps regulate the smooth flow of energy in the body, reducing stress, irritability and mood swings, and increasing flexibility and openness to change. Yin yoga is a style of yoga based on the meridian system of Traditional Chinese Medicine and involves holding passive postures for between 2-5 minutes and has similar effects as receiving an acupuncture treatment. This practice deeply opens the body's connective tissue and joints and moves areas of blocked energy to tonify the organs and increase physical and mental health.

NOVEMBER/ DECEMBER SURVIVAL SESSION
MONDAY EVENINGS 6:00-7:15pm
A new 8 Week Session starts Monday November 16th and will run through the 'holiday season' and onto the other side of the winter solstice when the days will once again start to get longer.
November 16th, 2009- January 4th 2010.
All classes are multi level Hatha Yoga. Although the practice and routine will vary from week to week, classes open with basic meditation and breathing instruction, we'll hold some postures for a long time to build strength and endurance, practice vinyasa (flowing quickly between postures), Yin poses (deep stretching) and relaxation.
In my 8 years of teaching experience and 12 years of practice, I have found that the benefits of yoga are felt with as much regular practice as possible. These benefits include experiencing a greater sense of emotional equanimity and physical vitality. During this time of year with short and dark days, it is especially important to care for ourselves and to connect with others. A weekly yoga practice is an excellent way to encourage both of these practices. Class sizes are small, they take place in a cozy loft space where you can wear what you want and hopefully feel comfortable and have fun.
The entire session costs $64 (at only $8/class)
Monday evening classes are also always open as Drop in for $10 each
