Yoga offers many benefits, including lower blood pressure, greater strength and flexibility, improved balance and a calmer mind and can be practiced at any age.

No prior experience needed for this experience of gentle, mindful movement and deep breathing to calm the nervous system and focus the mind. You’ll stretch and move while sitting in your chair with a handful of standing and balancing postures accessible to all. We’ll finish with a guided body scan that invites you to relax into the present moment, that place where true power lies.

Learn why yoga is more than the physical postures you see in pictures and commercials and how you can incorporate it into your life in a way that works for you.

Tap into this ancient practice that offers many modern applications for a more peaceful, powerful you.

No previous experience needed. 

FREE:  this program is offered through the generous support of a Cape Elizabeth community member and with the support of CECS.

Join me for this gentle yoga class, geared towards all levels. Whether you're new to yoga, returning after a break, or because your chiropractor keeps suggesting it....this class may be just right for you.  Experience deep relaxation after you've moved mindfully and loosened tight hips, hamstrings and shoulders. You'll receive clear, gentle instruction on postures and stretches and deepen into a blissful state in savasana (relaxation pose). In-person class size is intentionally small and the focus is on finding a yoga practice that works for you.  Mats and props provided.

You'll have the option of attending in-person or joining via Zoom.  Can't make it to class one day? All participants get a recording of class afterwards to watch at their convenience.
