Gentle/Restorative Yoga: – Thursday Evenings
May 12 @ 7:00 pm – 8:15 pm

While still adhering to the principles of breath-centered yoga this class is a softer practice that includes slower movement combined with postures where the body is supported using props (blankets, blocks and bolsters). Practitioners are encouraged to hold the supported postures longer and  find comfort in each pose. This is a wonderful opportunity to de-stress from a long day and restore body, mind and heart. Includes some guided meditation.

Gentle/Restorative Fee Schedule:

Drop in – any time during the terms weekly classes: $10 per class.
Class Passes (For the current 10 week term only):

One class/week (10 classes) – $80. Two classes/week (20 classes) – $140

Movie Night – The Dhamma Brothers
Jul 16 @ 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm

Watch this incredible documentary together here.  LINK TO DETAILS

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.
