Slow Flow Yoga @ The Plant

This slow-flow vinyasa class is focused on building strength and encouraging flexibility. Class begins with a short grounding and centering exercise during which students are guided into their breathwork practice, followed by gentle movements to warm up the body. We’ll then move through modified sun salutations and standing postures, after which, inversions will be offered to support the circulatory system. The class will end with seated and reclined postures to cool the body down and prepare for savasana. Modifications are offered throughout practice, and all levels are welcome!
This class will meet outside on the lawn in front of the stage, or in Building 2 in the event of rain. If you have any questions, head into Fair Game Beverage Company and someone there will show you where to go.
