AdultsProgram Description
This is the first week in a 5-week yoga series (November 10-December 8) at the Sugar Creek Branch in New Palestine for both beginning and advanced students. Susan Goodart, a certified yoga teacher and fitness adviser, instructs the classes. Yoga increases strength, stamina, and flexibility and has been credited with improving mental health.
Hatha yoga is a term that refers to any type of yoga that teaches physical postures. It generally means that you will get a gentle introduction to the most basic yoga postures. You should end up leaving class feeling longer, looser, and more relaxed without working up too much of a sweat.
Use a chair or the floor depending on your abilities. Bring a mat or towel and a small pillow, and wear loose-fitting clothes. People with health issues should speak to their physicians before beginning any exercise.
A $25 fee is paid to the instructor at the first session. Those 60+ may attend free.
