This gentle yoga class is a meditative, fluid, and soothing class suitable for all levels. Students will experience slow movements to warm the body and release stress and muscular tension, breathing techniques to support the nervous system, and simple postures to help build strength and stability.
Suitable for beginners and seasoned practitioners alike.
Bring your mat and water bottle, as well as blocks and strap (towel) if needed. We will have some yoga mats and blocks available to borrow.

I first got into yoga for the exercise. It took several months of practice before I realized that there was something else going on. Yoga confers spiritual benefits! Who knew? It turns out many, many people did, and for thousands of years. Yoga is a great way to not only find inner calm, but to experience inner awesome. Today I practice for mindfulness, stress-relief, for exercise, and just for fun. I’ve been at it for almost 20 years. I love the philosophy of yoga, and the opportunity the practice affords for self-care. I assist the Yoga Teacher Training at UVM, where I also teach a noontime yoga class. Off the mat, I am a writer (cjanetaylor.com) and motorcycle enthusiast. I live in Hinesburg with my husband John McConnell who is also a yoga teacher and our dog Dewey who is also a yoga teacher.
