2 Hour Yoga WorkshopJoin Jo McIntosh, RYT 500 in our Restorative yoga workshop to heal and restore your body through relaxing poses
Find contentment, both in our practice and in our lives off the mat. How can our yoga practice help to find the state of happiness.
Stretch, be still, meditate, and breathe.
Restorative yoga is a restful practice that holds yoga poses (asanas) for a longer duration using props like yoga blocks, blankets, and bolsters. Through the use of props for support, many of the postures are held almost effortlessly.
When the body and mind are relaxed, tension is released. Become aware of sensations and thoughts that may arise.
The benefits of restorative yoga are similar to the many benefits of other styles of yoga, including:
Bolsters, blocks and straps are provided. Please bring a yoga mat, a blanket or two, a hard pillow and a bottle of water. Don’t forget your warm socks!

For families, we offer peace of mind knowing that your child is in a safe and educational program building new relationships and achieving more.
As a leading nonprofit committed to nurturing the potential of every child and teen, supporting their social-emotional, cognitive and physical development. Our experienced and caring staff and volunteers model the positive core Y values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility that help build character. Our core values are woven throughout our child care program to create a warm, nurturing, home away from home. Your child’s growth, development, and education are important to us, as we do our best to ensure their future is bright.
