MY DROP-IN CLASSES at North Cowichan Aquatic Centre, 2653 James Street
TUESDAYS
Good Morning Yoga
8 - 9 a.m.
Community-minded hatha yoga, anchored in opening and closing breathing meditations. Responsive to the needs of those who drop in, classes offer mindful, focussed movement to support physical, mental, and emotional range, balance, self-sensing, and ease.
Joint Wellness
11 a.m. - noon
A chair-based multidisciplinary class with optional standing exercise, enjoyed by people whose bodies have seen wear and tear through injuries, illness, or just living life. We play with a variety of movement challenges with light weights, resistance bands, and bouncy balls, to build healthy range of motion, strength, balance, focus, fun, and relaxation.

Yoga for Calm
12:15 - 1:15 p.m.
Gentle hatha yoga in service of our physical, mental, and emotional awareness, and our peace. Between opening and closing breathing meditations, classes focus on unwinding unnecessary stress while nurturing healthy range of motion through our trunk and limbs.
Strong and Stable
1:30 - 2:15 p.m.
Creatively condition your balance, coordination, flexibility, and strength. Sometimes using equipment and sometimes only your bodyweight, develop your connection to and control of your core and limbs, consciously and playfully relating to gravity and space.

I create yoga spaces with people across and between cultures, colours, creeds, genders
and sexualities, sizes, life stages, (dis)abilities, and health situations in mind and in respect.
I'm a white-bodied Gen X woman.
As a cross-cultural student of yoga, I use simple, foundational yoga methods
with a commitment to continually learn how to offer yoga in my community in a good way,
without misrepresenting or stealing from peoples of India and the Indian diaspora.
DO NOT ATTEND if you are symptomatic with any communicable disease.
