Staying Cool and Calm with Yoga and Ayurveda
Saturday, August 3rd
9:00 am - 12:00 pm
10 participant max
$25/participant
Led by Joy Lawrence

Applying the ancient wisdom of Yoga and her sister science Ayurveda, we will turn down the summer heat. Join us as we do a morning walk in the labyrinth, followed by learning how to make a season-appropriate Ayurvedic spiced tea in our barn. As the tea chills, we will do a one-hour yoga practice, consisting of yoga poses and breath work. We will enjoy some refreshing spiced tea at the end of our practice and walk away feeling cool, calm and collected.

Please bring your yoga mat and yoga blocks if you have them. We will have some provided for use too.

Friday, August 9th

$10
8 participants maximum
Led by Grace Franklin

Tai Chi movements are slow, gentle, and repetitive. They require no special equipment, don’t take a lot of time, and leave you feeling good! Regular practice of Tai Chi benefits balance, flexibility, memory, coordination, and vitality.

Learn basic postures and fundamentals in a light-hearted but serious way.  You will learn about core principles of Tai Chi, easy warm-up and cool-down exercises, and a short flow form.  Class handouts will help you practice on your own at home.

Your teacher and guide Grace Franklin has been practicing since 2008 with Living Tao lineage teachers Chungliang Al Huang, Cielle Tewksbury and Dan Jones.
