This fall, our focus will be on STORIES—both real and imagined. In this class, we will analyze the elements of effective storytelling, including (but not limited to) plot, character, scene, point of view, voice, and tone. Participants will write and/or revise their stories of choice and together we will examine successful writing strategies and tricks of the trade. And most of all, we will discover that writing can be fun!

Explore classical and creative yoga poses flowing in conjunction with breath. Class will begin with centering exercises, move through traditional Sun Salutations, and flow into standing sequences linking breath with movement.

Vinyasa Flow yoga is a creative and more active form of yoga using continuous dynamic movements linked together with the breath to create a flowing sequence. We wind down with cooling postures and blissful Savasana (rest to absorb practice).

Participants will need a yoga mat, two yoga blocks, and one blanket. No class on 10/31/23.
