"I absolutely love going to Jennifer's yoga classes! They are small, dynamic, and light-hearted. Because the classes are small, it really allows Jennifer to give you great one on one guidance. I love her Gentle Yoga for relieving mid week work stress, and for some really great deep stretching that makes you feel rejuvenated. But I also really love her Hatha classes that are more energetic. Jennifer has a knack for knowing exactly what each class/student needs. The environment that Jennifer creates allows you to feel comfortable, peaceful and (my favorite) the freedom to giggle when you fall out of your pose. Jennifer has a great calming and loving presence and I am always looking forward to seeing her and taking her classes."  —Cara T.

 


Qi Gong 

Private and Semi-private instruction
Experience a different approach to health! Instructor Venus Sabay guides you through gentle movements and coordinated breath, cultivating your Qi— or life force energy. Qi Gong exercises are simple, repetitive, and build your energy instead of depleting it. In each class you will learn how to harmonize your Qi with the seasons. Each season has its own Qi and correlates to different emotions, and organs within the body. As these cyclical energies greatly influence the functions of each organ, our inner balance and relationship to the surrounding environment are also affected, allowing you to become closer to and more in sync with nature.

Classes end with a sound healing meditation using Tibetan Singing Bowls.
This class is for all fitness levels: for those unable to stand, Qi Gong can be performed in seated posture. Bring your family and friends—  the bigger the group, the greater the benefits.

$18 Group Instruction, every Monday 6:00 to 7:15pm and Pre-registration is required (In keeping with current COVID guidelines group classes are temporarily canceled.)
Purchase 5 classes for $75
$95 60-minutes, private Instruction available by appointment
