Saturday Wellness: Jan.31 @ 10AM Yoga with Aaron Bear
Class Description
Lila Yoga Sun Salutations | January 10, 17, 31 | 10am-11:15am (1hr15min)
Lila Yoga Sun Salutations is a thoughtfully curated vinyasa flow designed for an
elevated and aware morning. This accessible practice guides practitioners through the five elements of being - earth, water, fire, air, and ether - to cultivate the experience of yoga (union).
This class is accessible to all levels and is tailored to the practitioners in the room. Expect a dynamic sun-salutation-based flow with an emphasis on aligning breath, mind, and body. There is ample room for play, exploration, and experimentation, and students are encouraged to modify and make the practice their own.
With steady vinyasa movement and mindful transitions, this class builds strength, mobility, and awareness while remaining welcoming to beginners and engaging for more experienced practitioners. Lila Yoga offers both a strong foundation for a daily practice and a meaningful, energizing drop-in experience.
Payment can be made directly to the instructor via cash or venmo on sliding scale $10-$15
