Aerial Yoga Section II

$85

with Ashley Marie Jolly

Calendar May 20, 2024 at 5:30 pm, runs for 6 weeks

Classes in aerial yoga include flips, tricks and inversions. By keeping the swing at hip height, it transforms into a hammock that supports you during backbends and inversions and offers a unique way to build core, arm and leg strength. You'll flow and fly in your aerial swing during these 50-minute lessons, fusing the grace of yoga with the freedom of flight. No class 5/27.

Required: Proof of registration. Please wear comfortable workout-type clothes but nothing too loose, and be prepared to go barefoot.

Ashley Jolly holds an Associates degree in Nutrition, practices as a licensed Nutrition Dietetic Technician Registered, and is certified in both barre and aerial yoga. Her main focuses are on strength, stability, and flexibility, as she finds these to be the trifecta of great fitness.

QiGong: Organ Cleansing Form Section II

$55

with Lisa Bouchard

Calendar Jun 3, 2024 at 6:30 pm, runs for 5 weeks

Pronounced "chee gong," QiGong is a traditional Chinese form of stress relief that doesn't put undue strain on ligaments, muscles or joints. Discover how to coordinate your breath, use the slow and elegant movements (forms) of the organ cleansing form and stimulate qi (vital energy) in your meridians and different organ systems. Once the forms are learned it takes about 10 minutes to complete this full body tune-up. The practice is ideal for building a sense of profound calm while enhancing your stamina, balance, body awareness and flexibility.

Note: Chairs will be provided for those who have difficulty standing for long periods of time as the moves are easily adapted to the seated position.

Required: Proof of registration, wear loose-fitting clothing and comfortable shoes.

Lisa Bouchard is a licensed acupuncturist and owner of MassageCraft & Acupuncture Clinic. She is a certified instructor of the Wuji Hundun and organ cleansing forms through Community Awake with instructor Francesco Garripoli.
