Tai Chi
with Mike Thomas
Tai chi helps reduce stress and anxiety and it also helps increase flexibility and balance
If you’re looking for a way to reduce stress, consider Tai Chi (TIE-CHEE). Originally developed for self-defense, Tai Chi has evolved into a graceful form of exercise that’s now used for stress reduction and a variety of other health conditions. Often described as meditation in motion, Tai Chi promotes serenity through gentle, flowing movements.
Tai chi is an ancient Chinese tradition that, today, is practiced as a graceful form of exercise. It involves a series of movements performed in a slow, focused manner and accompanied by deep breathing.
Tai chi is a noncompetitive, self-paced system of gentle physical exercise and stretching. Each posture flows into the next without pause, ensuring that your body is in constant motion.
Tai Chi is low impact and puts minimal stress on muscles and joints, making it generally safe for all ages and fitness levels. In fact, because Tai Chi is a low-impact exercise, it may be especially suitable if you’re an older adult who otherwise may not exercise.
Mondays 6:15pm. All levels welcome. 60 minutes. Class is limited to 14 students.

Airmid Restorative Yoga
Bring restorative energy to your body and mind
with Elizabeth Jones
This class is for those who want to recharge and start their day with more energy and focus.

Next, we are guided into gentle poses and then several longer held postures (supported with props as needed). Following the sequence in this manner helps to calm the nervous system and release deeply held tension as well as replenish low or depleted energy.
We finish-up with a reclined deep relaxation to integrate the many benefits of our practice; including release of muscle tension and stress and restored vitality. With this practice your body, mind and emotions are refreshed and energized with a sense of joy and well-being to help you meet and embrace life more fully and meet the challenges of the day.

High Energy and Fun. Empowering and Educational

Yoga is a tool empowering the child to self-regulate emotions and achieve calm in an overstimulating world. Yoga improves behavioral issues for all children including those with learning disorders and has also been shown to improve the lives of children with autism spectrum disorders. Children of this age love to role-play and pretend, so this yoga class lets them be who they are. This class is high energy and fast paced to keep them focused and moving. Helps develop motor skills, ability to socialize and develop a greater self-reliance and empathy. Class ends with a period of calming relaxation.
Mondays 5pm, 60 Minutes. Class is limited to 12 students.

All ages and abilities can experience the benefits of traditional yoga
with Patti Tuberti
There is no need to miss out on the benefits of yoga just because you may have restrictions. Airmid Chair Yoga is for everyone, even if you have limited mobility, unable to sit on the ground or have trouble getting up. We begin by tuning into our breath to calm and focus the mind. Next, we warm up with gentle movements to loosen our shoulders, ankles, legs, feet and hands. Then we slowly transition into a flow of seated yoga postures while synchronizing these movements to our breath. Each class concludes with a restorative Savasana; a brief period of conscious rest to integrate the benefits of our session. This class will help to increase your strength, flexibility and energy and decrease stress. You’ll leave feeling balanced in body, mind and spirit.
Mondays 11:00am All levels Welcome. Limited to 14 students.
