2012 NEW YEAR SPECIAL EVENT CLASSES held at 31 Holmes Pl, Fredonia.

We’ll begin standing and complete a standing pose cycle before transitioning into deep restorative poses. We’ll end with a 20 minute sitting meditation.

Please note, there will not be a lot of teaching during the standing cycle, so you should already be familiar with those poses.
