Here are changes to our summer session schedule:

Amala Fahey will teach a Yoga Level I class on Tuesdays, from 9:00 - 10:30 AM beginning June 16. This is a 7-week series that runs through July 28. She will also continue to teach on Saturday mornings from 10:00 - 11:30 AM.

Max Quarto will teach 2 classes on Taoist longevity breathing on Tuesday, June 16 and 23, from 7:00 to 9:00 PM. This breathing practice increases lung capacity, calms the emotions and the nervous system, and increases mental concentration and awareness. Fee: $60/both classes, $35/single class. For details, link to the class flyer.

Robert Gadon will teach a Yoga Level I/II class starting Thursday, June 4 from 5:45 - 7:15 PM. The class will focus on standing, seated, balancing, and twisting postures. Upside down poses including shoulder stand (plus variations) and half-handstand will be introduced. Drop in students are welcome to attend. The class is suitable for students with at least 3 months of recent experience practicing hatha yoga. For details, link to the class flyer.

Bob Davis is taking a summer sabbatical from teaching, and will return to teaching on Thursday evenings in September.

Robert's Wednesday morning Level I class (10:00 - 11:30 AM) is now 'Yoga for Seniors' and is geared for students who want to improve their flexibility, balance, strength, and stamina. Most of the students in the class are 65 years of age or older.  Younger students are welcome to attend (the older students won't hold your age against you!).  We work hard in class and have fun at the same time.

 

Coming Attractions in the Fall

Robert will teach a restorative yoga class one Friday night per month from September through December. Restorative yoga allows one to practice postures with the support of props to allow for longer holding times, quieting and refreshing the body/mind. The postures can be modified to accommodate people with physical limitations. Details to follow as Robert establishes his schedule for fall.

 

'Yoga for Neck and Shoulders' will also be offered again in the fall. Look for the class announcement in the bimonthly schedule of classes and on this web site.
