You will be immersed in the sounds and sights of nature as SAM leads you through a series of seated, standing and lying poses in the meadow with views of native trees, plants, and blooming flowers. The class is gentle and invigorating. Variations of poses will be offered. Sign-up and plan to join us as part of your lunch break.
