*Covid Era: Many of the following groups continue to meet outdoors and socially distanced and/or via Zoom. Members stay connected in between meetings via the Realm App.
Faith & Flow Yoga
Tuesdays, 9–10AM in the Seim Room
Sundays, 6–7PM in the Chapel
Join us for all-levels Faith & Flow Yoga on Tuesday mornings at 9:00AM in the Seim Room and Sunday evenings at 6:00PM in the Chapel. Students may also opt to practice virtually via Zoom. The classes are taught by Emily Epstein.
This one-hour class integrates teachings of yoga philosophy and Christian spirituality as the students are guided through a basic to moderate vinyasa sequence (a method of yoga in which movements form a flowing sequence in coordination with the breath).
Tai Chi Classes
Stay healthy and fit by participating in our weekly Tai Chi classes offered at the church. Tai Chi is a series of gentle movements that improve balance, flexibility, and muscle strength. Tai Chi connects breath with movement in what some describe as a moving meditation. Tai Chi is beneficial to anyone who practices, and is often recommended for people who have arthritis, Parkinson’s disease or are recovering from injury or illness. Tai Chi classes are free of charge and take place Tuesday mornings from 9:30–10:30AM in Plymouth Hall.
Participants are asked to complete a waiver before engaging in Tai Chi. Click below to access the program waiver:
