Trance Dance
Friday, March 20, 7–8:30 pm

Come dance on the first day of Spring!

Rahel Kühne

Offered the third Friday of each month, Trance Dance is a 40,000-year-old shamanic healing art, carried through time as a way to reconnect body, mind, and spirit. In modern lives, we often hold on to stress, emotions, and tension for far too long. What we don’t release gets stored in our tissues and cells—over time, the body grows heavy, even sick.

In Trance Dance, we use world music and a simple breathing rhythm to let go of control and allow the body to move by itself. When the body moves freely, healing happens naturally. Movements arise from within, guiding us into release, renewal, and flow. As the body unwinds, the mind begins its own journey. Emotions may surface, visions may appear, or you may simply feel the joy of movement. Whatever arises is welcome—it is part of your own unique dance.

Each journey is different: playful and light for some, deeply transformative for others. You remain aware of the room and the community around you, while traveling into your inner landscape. Many leave feeling lighter, more open, and alive.

No dance experience needed
Not recommended for those currently experiencing schizophrenia or psychosis.

(WRJ) Mysore/Personal Practice
Thursdays 6–8:30 am
FREE for the first one, on March 26

Aleah Sommers

Our Mysore / Personal Practice class is run differently than our other classes. This is a space for self-directed yoga practice in an uplifting, supportive environment, in which each student receives individual guidance and assistance from the teacher (including optional physical touch). This is the traditional way of teaching Ashtanga yoga, but we welcome any form or style of yoga practice in this class. If you don't know how to begin, don't worry! We have reference sheets available and the teacher will help you get started. Practice at your own pace. Feel free to arrive and leave at any time within the class period—most students do not stay the entire time.

Monthly Gentle + Restorative
Sunday, April 12, 4–5:15 pm

Caleigh

Caleigh’s Gentle + Restorative class is the perfect way to nourish and restore the body, psyche and nervous system. A lovely complement to more active styles of yoga practice, the class is taught in a supportive environment and open to all levels, for anyone looking for a quiet practice. Props (bolsters, blankets, blocks) are used liberally to support the body. This nourishing support allows you to eliminate strain and open the body through passive stretching.
