Because we are committed to the health of both soul and body, FPCW has partnered with Lauren Star to provide Yoga Instruction in our building beginning in January of 2010. All church members and community members are welcome.
Classes will be held Tuesdays from 4:30-5:30 p.m. beginning Tuesday, January 19, 2010. A $10 donation per class is suggested, but not required.
About the class
The class will be one hour long; approximately 50 minutes of poses and approximately 8 minutes of savasana (relaxation). Yogic breathing will be taught and emphasized. The poses will be taught with patience and energy, and the sequencing of poses will work systematically through the body, increasing strength, flexibility and balance. The class is appropriate for all levels of yoga practitioners. The instructor will offer modifications for beginners and students working with injuries. Students will leave the class feeling clear and relaxed.
