Gentle & Strong Yoga

We meet generally on Mondays at 8am and Thursdays at 8am for group practice at the Yachats Community Presbyterian church. Please bring your own yoga mat (blocks & strap if you have them) we do not have extra mats. Classes are designed to be as accessible as possible. Basic “slow flow” structure will be determined based on time of year, cycle of the moon, requests & to some extent on who shows up. If balance is a challenge for you please bring a staff, cane or long walking stick as a prop, the venue has very limited wall space. We often include shapes like frog, sitting, squats, warriors, plank and downward dog.

Class begins promptly at 8am(Mondays)/745am(Thursdays)the front door is locked when class begins so late entry is unavailable. Please arrive a few minutes early to set yourself up, we lock the front door once class begins for security of the building. Late entry cannot be accommodated. All levels of experience are welcome. The title “Gentle and Strong” implies that we will practice strength building in a gentle accessible way that encourages self awareness and dedication to the personalization by each practitioner. This is predominantly a group flow format, participants are responsible for their own safety within the practice. Cues and vocal adjustments are offered. Hands on adjustments are uncommon and will only be offered with permission. Please bring your own mat(with blocks & strap if you have them) and a willingness to be in community, sliding scale donations are graciously appreciated and split between the venue and the instructor $3-$15 per person per class. No one will be turned away due to lack of funds.
