This class will involve gentle, sensible, challenging exercises. Each week participants will be performing classical postures of stretching and strengthening in accordance with the course objectives, which are to increase flexibility, to gain strength, to learn correct breathing techniques, to promote better body alignment, to learn deep relaxation techniques, and to manage stress and tension better. Exercises can be adapted for those with a variety of abilities. Participants will need a mat or pad to sit/lie on (a carpet strip, foam pad, or blanket is fine) and will need to wear loose, non-binding clothing. Short summer session is for returning students only. You must have taken a previous course to enroll in this course. New students will be welcome in the fall and spring.
