In today’s fast-paced, high tech society, teaching children manners is more crucial than ever.

Topics Include: The Importance of Greeting Others, Rules of Introduction, The Handshake, Eye Contact, and the Power of a Smile, Self-Respect and Respect for others, Proper Telephone Etiquette, Writing Thank You, and Other Modern Manners.

Slow Flow yoga provides poses that range from gentle to challenging, but done with stable, self-centering energy. The pace of these classes is understandably slower and emphasis is placed on safe alignment and the maintaining balance of the slow breathing. The toned-down speed builds strength, stability, and postural integrity. Slow flow is more conducive to the meditative practices of mindfulness of action and awareness of breathing by allowing you to notice the space between poses while still retaining a gentle rhythm of movement. This makes it particularly well-suited to newer students, or for those who desire deep concentration within their practice. Please bring a mat to class. Instructor: Cheryl Wolf Adults 18 and older, 10 classes, Virtual Classes on Zoom
