HATHA LEVEL 1 This class will introduce you to the basics of yoga postures and breathing practices. It differs from a Gentle Yoga class by assuming that you have a fundamental level of fitness, as well as no pain in your body. This class will help you develop strength and balance as well as flexibility, while giving you tools for stress reduction. No class May 21. Instructor: Catherine Reid #45616 Mondays April 9 - June 25 6:00 - 7:00 pm Lewis Meeting Room $99/11 HATHA LEVEL 2 If you’ve been taking classes for at least a year, or practicing on your own, consider joining this class. You’ll need to be aware of your breath, and familiar with basic principles of alignment. You feel strong and balanced in standing poses, comfortable in Downward Dog, and you’re ready to take your practice to the next level. No class May 21. Instructor: Catherine Reid #45617 Mondays April 9 - June 25 7:15 - 8:45 pm Lewis Meeting Room $132/11 YOGA FOR HEALTHY VISION This class will focus on how breath awareness, meditation, and spe- cific movements can improve your vision. The techniques presented are considered to be completely safe. However, please consult your optometrist or ophthalmologist before attending class.

YIN YOGA Yin Yoga is a quiet, meditative and simple practice. But as you’ll discover, simple doesn’t mean easy. Long held, sometimes prop supported, passive poses target and help release fascia, connec- tive tissue, joints, and deeply held parts of the body – and the mind. Poses are mostly on the floor or low to the ground. Instructor: Wendy Davies #45530 Tuesdays April 17 - June 19 5:30 - 6:45 pm Lewis Meeting Room $100/10 Instructor: Helen Pattinson #45529 Wednesdays YIN YANG FUSION THE DRAGON FLOW Yin/Yang Yoga Fusion: The Dragon Flow is a blend of Indian yoga and Daoist practices: a yoga vinyasa class designed to stimulate the flow of energy through directed awareness and vigorous move- ments. Connection to breath is the emphasis here whether in movement (Yang) or stillness (Yin). Some prior yoga experience is beneficial.
