Gentle Yoga includes breathing exercises, gentle and restorative yoga postures, and mindfulness exercises. Yoga activates a relaxation response and can help relieve feelings of anxiety and can help people with cancer reconnect with their body. The goal of the class is to relax, be mindful, and to improve range of motion and flexibility.
Classes are 75 minutes in length and participants benefit the most when they are present for the full duration of the class.
Sessions are 4 to 6 weeks in duration. Class size is limited to 12-14 individuals. Participants must commit to all sessions in the series. Make-up classes are not offered and drop-ins to other sessions are not possible.
Advance registration is required.
Series are offered throughout the year. Call (585) 473-8177 or email us today to learn more about the registration process and upcoming session start dates.
