CLASSES AND WORKSHOPS

Heart Songs & Circle Songs is an ongoing interactive project to nurture harmony and community in the world through the teaching and sharing of original songs. In worship service, song circle, workshop, or concert format, Heather and Bernice bring this work into churches, schools, homes, community centers, informal gatherings, and anywhere that the ideals of harmony and unity may take hold.

This all levels, 75-minute class will typically begin with grounding and centering breathwork on your mat.

Breathwork techniques will be introduced or reviewed so that students may return to one of the techniques as needed throughout class to soothe any emotional energy that may begin to feel too intense.

Next, we will move into postures that honor the desire to physically close off and protect the heart. From here, we will work on gently opening the heart and releasing grief from the heart and lungs.
 

Postures that help to release emotions from the hips and postures that return us to the strength of our physical foundations will be explored.

One strong, peak posture will be included as a form of celebration that we are safe to go forward in our lives with an open heart.
 

Class will come to conclusion in supported, gentle postures and an extended savasana.

In this class we tune into the rhythm of our breath and begin to move
with ease and grace. We create strength and flexibility and we embrace stillness. Tension and stress are released from the muscles and joints as the body opens. You will leave class with a sense of stability and connection to the body, mind, and spirit. All levels are welcome.

We begin on the floor with subtle movements to warm the body and release the fascia. Then we practice gentle yoga postures to increase flexibility, strength, and balance. We end class with restorative poses that offer passive stretching of the body and deep relaxation. All are welcome to join this class to renew, relax, and restore.

Join this practice, and still have the day ahead of you! An hour long, all levels, Rise and Shine flow.

Join us for a dynamic, restorative practice that focuses on quieting the mind, settling the body and connecting back to your natural rhythm. We will begin with some gentle movement and stretching then end with deep stillness of restorative yoga poses. There will be mindful pauses throughout for centering, connecting to breath and softening any restlessness that creeps back in. This class will be alternatively taught by both Chelsea and Robin so you can enjoy varying perspectives of the practice.

A non-flow class using stillness to strengthen, lengthen, and hydrate deep connective tissue to increase flexibility and mobility. The practice of long, passively held floor poses balances the flow of energy and improves our physical and emotional health. All levels are welcome. No yoga experience is necessary.
