Description
In Sanskrit, "Kāla" means "time" and this class is all about making time for calm -- calm body, calm breath, calm mind. We will use a variety of techniques such as gentle standing, seated and reclined movements, breath work, simple meditations, and guided relaxation or yoga nidra (yogic sleep). Every class will be different and focus on a theme to guide our intentions. Absolutely no yoga experience required -- only a desire to move slowly, breathe mindfully and calm the mind.
