Vitality and Grace Practice
An incredible way to start your weekend. Based in the science of Hatha Yoga, the class will include techniques to strengthen physical alignment, to balance and tone the nervous system, and to awaken deeper awareness of the subtle, energetic body. The focus will be on harmonizing action, breath, and awareness to enliven all aspects of our being. Class structure includes a gentle warm-up, sun salutation & stronger standing work, proceeded by deeper floor work. The morning may likely include chanting, pranayama, and/or meditation.
The class level is continuing beginner to intermediate; familiarity with basic or foundation poses is recommended. Please feel free to contact Silke with any questions.

Center for Performing Arts

Rate: Asana-portion only - $12; full class $15
Sadhana Special

The first 1 1/4 hours will be our asana (posture) practice, followed by 45 mins. dedicated to pranayama (regulated breathwork), chanting &/or meditation, and discussion/questions. This is an extraordinary opportunity to learn how to build a complete practice and to participate in mini-workshop setting each week.
