Earth Day Yoga
Join yoga instructors, Sarah Bayze & Jen Rischard, in this 90 minute all-levels yoga class exploring Virya in honor of Earth Day! Virya = right effort. How we use our energy matters, for our bodies and our planet. Virya is effort guided by wisdom. Earth Day reminds us that our effort matters — how we walk, what we consume, how we move — all of it is energy in relationship with the Earth. A fusion of Vinyasa and Hatha yoga styles and a soothing sound bath to support your savasana, this class is appropriate for all levels and modifications will be offered. 50% of proceeds will be donated to Friends of Madera Canyon in honor of Earth Day.
