A safe and friendly introduction to yoga, appropriate for those wanting to try an accessible form of yoga or for those who have had injuries in the past.

Easy and modified yoga poses will be explored. Your physician should release you for general physical activity.
A half-day retreat to honor Spring, the coming warmth, life emerging from the darkness of Winter. Come and join us practicing a loving presence toward yourself, your loved ones, the world around you, your intentions for the season. Gentle movement, contemplative practice, readings, relaxation exercises, readings to support us as we honor the season. Time to share your intentions, readings or a poem if you wish.

Donaldson Correctional Facility is situated in the Alabama countryside southwest of Birmingham. 1,500 men, considered the state’s most dangerous prisoners, live behind high security towers and a double row of barbed and electrical wire fences.
Within this dark environment, a spark was ignited. A growing network of men had been gathering to meditate on a regular basis. Intrigued by this, Jenny Phillips, cultural anthropologist and psychotherapist, first visited Donaldson Correctional Facility in the fall of 1999. She planned to observe the meditation classes facilitated by inmates and to interview the inmate meditators about their lives as prisoners.
