Upper Back, Neck and Shoulders
Sunday, April 27
1:00 - 3:00 PM
Bernal Yoga
Stiff shoulders? Tension in your neck? Discomfort in your arms, wrists and hands? Working on computers all day, talking on the phone, driving, and many other daily activities can cause stiffness and tension in the neck, shoulders, and upper back. Yoga can help to relieve these symptoms and create space and movement where the body is stuck. This class is designed to introduce students to a range of rigorous and relaxing yoga postures with a particular focus on the upper body. We'll build flexibility and strength, work with existing stiffness, and learn the fundamentals of body alignment to prevent injury.
This class is appropriate for anyone interested in yoga regardless of skill level or amount of flexibility. Please wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move easily, and eat lightly before class.
$30 through April 20, $40 after April 20

Transformation Through Yoga
Sunday, October 12
2:00 - 4:30 PM

How can yoga create transformation in our bodies, minds and lives? How is the practice of physical postures (asanas) related to finding inner peace and equilibrium? How do asanas fit into the overall practice of yoga? This class will explore some of these questions through an asana sequence and an exploration of some of yoga's underlying philosophy.
