Open Up: Caregivers' Yoga Class

Caregivers' Yoga class is an experience curated for those who dedicate their time and energy to caring for others. This class emphasizes mindfulness and rest, and provides a supportive space for caregivers to take care of themselves.

In this class there is optional opportunities to share experiences and find support among fellow caregivers. More than movement and mindfulness this class is a chance to pause, reflect, recharge, and nurture yourself.

Through mindful awareness and community support, Caregiver’s Yoga encourages self-exploration and personal growth, making it an ideal space for anyone looking to enhance their wellbeing.

• This class usually blends some energetic movements to warm up, some rest and relaxation practices, and opportunities to try out mindfulness tools such as breath work or meditation. We strive to tailor the class to what the participants ask for each time.

• Open Up classes are designed to be accessible for people with and without disabilities. They are for everyone! Our facilitators work to meet the unique needs of the students in the class and create a supportive environment. If you have a support need that you’d like to let us know about, or a question about the class email us at [email protected].

• We have mats and supportive props at the studio, and feel free to bring your own if you’d like.

• All new participants will be asked to sign a waiver, studio agreements and optional photo release upon arrival at the first class. You can read the terms here.

Classes are free because we want to remove barriers to participation. If you are able to contribute and help us keep classes on the schedule, a regular monthly donation helps us do that! www.open-up.org/donate
