What to Expect:In this 60-minute long class, you’ll move through a series of gentle poses and mindful sequences designed to:

• Build physical strength while enhancing flexibility
• Promote relaxation with calming cool-down periods
• Foster community connection where everyone feels valued and heard

This class connects movement to breath with a mixture of energetic yoga sequences, helping you transition into the weekend feeling grounded and refreshed.

Our facilitators create a supportive, sensory-inclusive environment and work to meet the unique needs of each participant.

Additional Information:This is a shared, welcoming space. Some participants may make sudden movements or sounds as they engage in class—this is part of our inclusive environment. Feel free to bring your own headphones if needed. A relaxation space is also available. We provide mats and supportive props, but you’re welcome to bring your own.

Age Requirement: Suitable for ages 12+ (youth must be accompanied by an adult).
