POP UP! INTEGRATIVE COMMUNITY YOGA

Integrative Community Yoga is not your average yoga class—it’s a weekly sanctuary for movement, breath, connection, and real healing. This is a space where we get to be fully human. We laugh, stretch, share, release, and reawaken the joy that lives inside all of us. Each class is a living ceremony, woven with breathwork, improv games, authentic relating, and soulful movement—designed to dissolve stress, build community, and ignite inner peace. Some days we dance. Some days we cry. Some days we sit in silence or share poetry, pull mythology cards, or read from books that nourish the spirit. Every session is different, shaped by who shows up and what wants to come through. If you’ve been craving genuine connection, a nervous system reset, or a chance to just be—this is for you. Come as you are. Leave lighter, loved, and a little more alive.

Sunday 5:00pm - 6:15pm
Contemplative Dance Practice

Contemplative Dance Practice (CDP) is a movement practice developed by Barbara Dilley to support mindfulness, creativity, & personal & group awareness when improvising dance without music. Meditation is followed by solo practice/warm up, followed by group work in the Open Space. This practice is appropriate for artists working in any medium interested in cultivating a stronger somatic (body-based) awareness, for dancers wanting to dig into the mind-body's wisdom, or for anyone wanting to enhance creativity, healing, & presence in a group setting. This community of practice is facilitated by Gabrielle Barnet, Maia Draper-Reich, and Molissa Udevitz who are dancers interested in deepening their own improvisational practice while nurturing space for community.

Wednesdays 6:00pm - 7:15pm

Courses

Source & Resource: somatic explorations to nurture creativity and well being

This 6-week series (drop ins welcome) provides an opportunity to sample a variety of "embodied awareness" approaches to movement. Class will draw from practices such as Authentic Movement, Feldenkrais, Body Mind Centering, Continuum, and the instructor’s own movement research to encourage individualized movement exploration. It won't be about "getting it right" or getting in a workout, or even learning a technique. It will be about adding tools to your movement exploration toolbox with emphasis on supporting ease, flow, integration, maybe transformation. No dance experience necessary, all are welcome, bring your curiosity!

Wednesdays 7:30pm - 8:15pm
