Particiants will practice a 55-60 minute Hatha yoga session with instructor Jacque Minarik. In this series we will unwind, stretch, and relax. Hatha yoga is practiced at a slower pace, with focus on the breath, controlled movements, and stretching. Each week we will begin by setting an intention for our practice. We will combine asanas or yoga poses and stretches that combine your breath to your movements in a gentle way to help alleviate tension and stress in the physical body and mind. At the close of each individual class, we will walk away with greater flexibility, an eased mind, body, and soul.
Participants need to bring the following:
Please wear comfortable clothing and shoes that can easily be removed.
Please bring a Yoga mat or a pillow and a blanket( instructor has some to borrow if needed)

Jacque is an International Rotary Scholar and has completed 200 hours of yoga teacher training. She studied Asian Art in Japan and that remains one of her favorite memories and serves as an inspiration for much of her current work. Jacque believes, “Art is so important because it helps you process everything in your world and allows you to relax and ponder/process your ideas in your brain. It is also a time for reflection.” One of her favorite aspects of art is that you can spread hope and joy when you make art and share it. She is excited to share yoga and art with you!
