This Core Class focuses on essential movements and stretches to improve your core function. Your abdominal, back and glute muscles, which make up your core, are responsible for providing stability, alignment, and balance. You'll strengthen this whole area with yoga, Pilates, and special breaths. This, in turn, will improve your posture and spinal health; not to mention reduce back pain. You’ll experience a long rest at the end of the class to create a beautiful union of the mind, body and spirit.

Yoga for Recovery
Discussion, Movement & Meditation
Led by Jolie Therrien
Recovery is regaining control, shifting perspective, and creating life-long behavioral changes. Take back your power of well-being by:
· connecting with like minded people
· moving the body to reduce stress and
· meditating to calm the mind.
Yoga for Recovery joins body, mind & spirit together! This program begins with a discussion on a related topic and is followed by gentle, mindful movements which release tension from the body. Breathing techniques to reduce stress and anxiety are incorporated throughout the session. Finally, the program ends with a guided meditation that quiets the mind.
All recovery is important: drugs alcohol, loss of a loved one, gambling, depression, PTSD…..
You are Amazing *** You are Worthy *** You are Deserving
Let’s Shine Together

Yin Yoga
Led by Melissa Johnson
What to Expect
Yin is a passive floor-based practice either seated or reclined. Poses are held for about 3-5 minutes followed by short periods of gentle movements where we will access deep layers of fascia and connective tissue to help bring comfort and relief to the joint system.
Dress comfortably and if you'd like, bring a favorite blanket and/or pillow! We will also have access to props here at the yoga center. Some props (pillows, blankets, blocks) may be needed to more comfortably relax in a pose. Let's join together to alleviate tension, enhance breath awareness, and develop mindfulness all while bringing some relief to our joints and connective tissues!

A Taste of Tai Chi
Led by
Lenny Burlingame
What to Expect
The theme of this class is to bring slow rhythmic movements in harmony with the breath to promote deep relaxation. We will explore releasing, also known as sung, through soft, smooth, circular, spiral and rhythmic movements. Sung is a principle in Tai Chi that can be experienced without learning the complexities of a Tai Chi form. We will explore how these ideas can be integrated into daily life and, if desired, in learning a Tai Chi Form. Open conversation among class participants will lead the direction of the information shared. This class requires no prior Tai Chi experience just a willingness to learn.
