About the class:
All levels are welcome.
This practice is focused primarily on conscious breathing in postures intended to relax the body and engage the mind. Bring your own mat, blanket, or towel and dig your toes into the ground during our practice. Please attempt to arrive at least 10 minutes before class is scheduled to begin and join the group quietly if you’re running behind – but COME! Attendees are invited to tour the museum and visit the exhibitions currently on display when practice is over.
About Maegan’s personal yoga journey:
I came to yoga while living in Colorado almost 15 years ago now. Over the years, my practice has saved me in many ways. In the summer of 2017, I traveled to India to deepen my personal practice and study Hatha yogic philosophy, asana (body posture), pranayama (breathing technique), and meditation. I earned a 200-hour certification with Yoga Alliance while living at an ashram and studying intensely in an immersion program. For over five years now, I have been given the opportunity to share this fundamental life practice under the majestic Sallier Oak, and I am continually grateful to guide others in this space as a means of connection to nature, oneself, and the community.
