Join District Flow Yoga and Hill Center for a yoga class catered to older students!
A yoga practice can contribute to your overall sense of well-being, contentment, ability to relax, sense of balance, strength, and body awareness.
This class is suitable for all ages of adults–no matter experience, injuries, conditions. It is ideal for seniors, mothers who have recently given birth and folks who have stepped away from a yoga practice and would like to restart. The instructor will focus on guiding the student through gentle movements that include some tai chi along with classic yoga poses in order to establish stability, ease, flexibility and relaxation. If there is a substitute teacher, we cannot guarantee that class will include tai-chi. We invite you to spend an hour with us to slow down and tune in.
Please remember to bring your yoga mat to class.
About Jayanti: Jayanti has been teaching yoga for approximately 15 years with 700+ hours of Yoga Alliance registered training and her personal practice spans 30 years. Jayanti’s teaching experience includes studio classes, private clients, kids’ yoga, lead teacher trainer for aspiring yoga instructors and a current adjunct professorof meditation and yoga at George Washington University. Jayanti is passionately committed to creating a safe practice for everyone where the student can work according to his/her physical and mental capacity in any given moment. Her classes combine some slow flow with a lot of holding and aligning in poses to build strength, balance and one pointed mind focus. She encourages students to use props as they make many poses available to those who might need extra support in any given pose at any given time. FYI, she is known as the Prop Queen. If you attend her class, don’t be surprised if she cues into a cozy, restorative pose on blankets!
This class requires at least 6 participants. Participants will be notified if the minimum is not met.
Hill Center is dedicated to making our programming equitable and accessible to all. If cost, accessibility, or other obstacles are a barrier to attending a program, please contact programs@hillcenterdc.org and we will be happy to work out a solution.
