Slow Flow Yoga with Arlana
Slow Flow Yoga | Registration closed 11/11/2024
Sign up for this gentle flowing class, in which we move through poses, usually holding a pose for 15-20 seconds. Emphasis is on slow movement through the available range of motion, gradually building strength and flexibility. Participants bring their own mat; wear stretch clothing and are comfortable with moving from a standing position to the floor and back up again. Occasionally we will use props such as chairs, blocks, and straps. Participants should bring their own mat, block, and strap.
- Participants bring their own mat, wear stretch clothing. If you have your own block or strap, please bring them along with you.

She lived in Europe from 1999-2015, and she began teaching medical yoga in 2014 to American soldiers returning from deployment. She expanded her classes to include power yoga; prenatal and postnatal yoga; partner yoga, yoga for children and youth, chair yoga, slow flow yoga, Tai Chi, and YoChi.
