SUNSHINE SATURDAYS CLASSES

Yoga Class (ongoing)

Drop-ins are welcome ($6 for members / $10 for non-members)

The style is Vinyasa flow, where the instructor cues the participants to move from one pose to another on an inhale or exhale. The sequence of postures in each class is designed to help the participants control breath, build strength, increase flexibility and learn to focus. Gentle hands-on adjustment will be used to support the participants in the best alignment so they can safely move into a deeper pose. Practitioners of all levels are welcome. All classes are structured to be progressive.

Where the Mountain Meets the Moon is a beautifully illustrated book about a young girl named Minli who lives in a ramshackle hut with her parents. In the evenings, her father regales her with old folktales of the Jade Dragon and the Old Man of the Moon, who knows the answers to all of life's questions. Inspired by these stories, Minli sets off on an extraordinary journey to find the Old Man of the Moon to ask him how she can change her family’s fortune. It has won multiple awards, including the Parent’s Choice Gold award for 2009.
