The Be More Yoga Community's mission is to create a safe-space for individuals and families. We use (The 8 limbs of) Yoga as a tool to heal/manage chronic stress, trauma, and the effects of social isolation. Fast Friday: We invite you to fast from social media, news, and anything else that you feel you have any negative ties to (could be food, alcohol, anything that alters your balanced self.) for the day. During class we will shake it off, reconnect to balance, activate some fire. We'll work through a creative flow together, unite in the mission to utilize the tools of yoga in a safe space to work through anything we need to at this time. There will be fluid yoga poses rooted in alignment, chakra, and kundalini yoga, meditation, breathwork, and relaxation. All levels are welcomed and all poses will be simple enough for anyone to do, and modifiable for a more advanced practitioner. All you need is your yoga mat and a blanket if you'd like to sit on it and use it for relaxation at the end. Once you are a registered guest, you will receive a confirmation email with a Zoom link for the class.
