About This Event
I am humbled to be a part of the Behind the Mask Exhibit curated by Grymm Studios for The Hartford ArtSpace Gallery. Connect with your body while in the midst of the artwork on display for this meaningful and important exhibit. Embrace quiet and stillness and see if you can hear what the deepest parts of you have to share. Move your body with intention and mindfulness; you are in control. Breathe with full awareness. In this moment, in this space, you are pure.Â
Students will need to bring their own mats as well as any props they may prefer. Students are encouraged to wear comfortable clothing in layers and to bring water to stay hydrated while in practice.
This will be a gentle practice, but for students with mobility issues or other bodily concerns, a chair yoga class will be offered at the gallery on Tuesday, August 22nd at 10am.Â
**The drop-in price for yoga at Shaded Whimsy is $15. This special discounted price is just for Yoga at the Gallery.**
