Sunday, September 2 for a unique collaborative event: Yoga with Drumming.
MGY instructor, Arrie Tucker, will lead an all-levels yoga practice including light stretches and movements to help facilitate mind-body awareness while Casey “Muze” Williams of Starr Avenue Co., will provide drum accompaniment.
The therapeutic effects of drumming and somatic practices include releasing held emotions, processing adverse experiences, and feeling more connected to oneself and their environment. This event has the potential to be a powerful transformative experience and, more importantly, fun!

Morning Glory Yoga Studios is offering a new
Introduction to Yoga Foundation Course
beginning April 03, 2018.
This is a wonderful opportunity to learn about the many health benefits of yoga while gaining a foundation upon which to build a practice.
The course is appropriate for those new to yoga as well as those who wish to refresh and refine their relationship with the practice.
Yoga builds strength and flexibility through physical postures while helping students understand individual stressors through techniques that include mindfulness, breath, and gaze. Through a regular yoga practice, awareness and quality of one’s physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health are improved.
Students will learn basic yoga postures, proper alignment, breath work, and be introduced to basic meditation techniques.
This class is suitable for students of various ages although it is geared towards adults; no children under the age of sixteen, please. The class is also suitable for people of various fitness levels. Poses will be modified to meet individual needs. Students should wear comfortable, moveable clothes and will remove their shoes during the class. A yoga mat is recommended but not required.
For the first time, Gentle, Restorative, and Beginner classes are included (and encouraged) in the April Foundation Course.
