Weekly Mindful Chair Yoga and Hatha Yoga classes at Gather Wellness in Lyman, Maine!Join me each week at a beautiful NEW studio in Lyman! Gather Wellness is a new wellness center in the center of Lyman, Maine. I will be offering weekly Mindful Chair yoga classes every Wednesday at 4:15 pm, along with weekly Mindful Mixed-Levels Hatha yoga classes on Wednesdays at 5:45 pm! These classes will be offered in “sessions,” lasting 6-8 weeks with a one-week break in between. You may join any session at any time, with no commitment for the entire session. However, there will be a slight discount for paying in full at the start of a session for the entire session. The 60-minute Mindful Chair Yoga classes will utilize a chair for support as we move through breathwork and poses designed to support strength, stretching, and balance. These classes are for every body! Chair yoga is a powerful way to mindfully approach the body and its needs, offering support as we address common imbalances that result from habitual holding patterns in the body. The 75-minute Mindful Mixed-Level Hatha yoga class will start with a centering and breathwork, followed by a traditional Hatha yoga asana (postures) series. We will cultivate a deeper connection with our inner “knowing” as we practice breathwork and postures together. From Sanskrit, the language most ancient texts on Yoga use, “Ha” is related to the Sun and “Tha” to the Moon. These are two of the main energies we hold within our energy bodies, each with its own attributes. However, as we navigate life, these two energies can become imbalanced. Hatha yoga recognizes this and meets the student where they are. The practice of Hatha yoga works to return our bodies to balance between the solar and lunar energies within, leaving us feeling more grounded and clear. Mindful Mixed-levels Hatha yoga class will offer alignment cues, hands-on assists (if desired), and posture modifications to meet the needs of differing practice levels from beginner to experienced! Classes will also introduce Sanskrit terms in honor of the tradition of yoga, and will weave yoga philosophy into our practice to further enhance your connection to your own inner “knowing” and Light. We honor the mission of Gather Wellness, “where science and spirit meet.” First Session: January 7th through February 11th (6 weeks) Second Session: February 25th through April 15th (8 weeks) Third Session: April 29th through June 3rd (6 weeks) Summer classes TBD To read more and sign up for class(es), click the link below!
