Experience a well rounded practice with slow, mindful movement, stretch and breath to help you release tension, restore energy and welcome the evening with ease. Typically we begin on our backs with a breath awareness meditation, followed by some joint articulation and stretches. We’ll progress gently to standing where we link breath to movement via sun salutations with some longer holds included in certain postures. Recommended props: blankets, blocks (or books), strap (or towel/scarf) Also meets: Friday
This class is appropriate for all students with all experience levels, including new and beginner students who are still learning the basics.
Gentle, with slow sustained movement on the mat.

I really look forward to Christine’s classes, And I try my best to not miss them. With each class I feel relaxed the tensions and blockages that existed prior to class starting dissipates by the end of class. Her voice is extremely calming and the directions called are easy to follow without looking at the screen.
