Hatha

Instructor: Meghan Cross, Molly Clarkson
Hatha Yoga refers to a set of physical postures (known as asanas or postures), and sequences of asanas, designed to align your skin, muscles, and bones. Through mindful movement of the body you cultivate strength, stability, flexibility and ease. Open your body through active and mindful physical movement to cultivate the quiet mind and connect with your inner stillness. Find your edge to refine your practice, stabilize and strengthen your body, all while releasing tension. All levels welcome Tuesdays with Molly, 5:30pm -6:45pm Thursdays with Meghan 5:30pm - 6:45pm |

Meditation
|
Instructor: Tracy Morton
Using techniques from Vipassana meditation, we will explore the nature of mind through enquiry and observing closely what is arising in the moment. We will see how thoughts, emotions and sensations come and go.
Through strengthening our awareness, we can lighten our attachment to those phenomena and take more control of our consciousness. Wednesday with Tracy, 8:30pm - 9:30pm |

Yin Yoga
|
Instructor: Molly Clarkson
Known as the quiet practice, Yin Yoga targets the connective tissues of the hips, pelvis and lower spine. Yin postures are held for three to five minutes which gives the body an opportunity to open and release tension from deeper tissues.
Yin Yoga is a simple practice. It is subtle and it can also be challenging. The body of the class consists of 6-8 poses that take place directly on the earth. There are no standing poses and the focus is on the lower body. Poses are held for 3-5 minutes. This form of yoga is a great complement to more dynamic and active practices, and is a great aid for learning to sit in meditation. Tuesdays with Molly, 7:30pm - 8:45pm All levels welcome |
