Hope Rising Resource Center at Wesley Freedom Church in Eldersburg, MD
With Nancy Fallon and Melanie Kaffl
Saturday, August 9th, 1:00-4:30pm

Join yoga teacher Nancy Fallon and Ceramic Artist Melanie Kaffl for an experience to remember! Indulge in a luxurious 1.5 hour yoga practice, meant to drown out the noise in your brain, followed by an opportunity to melt anxiety through creative expression!
The yoga practice will guide you through gentle movement & relaxing myofascial release, followed by several restorative poses, and a meditation to drop into deep relaxation. We’ll have a short break for refreshments and to wake up enough to engage in creating a beautiful trinket dish of your choice with instruction, but mostly, allow your meditative state to guide your creative hand!

During the course of this class we will work to hydrate and restore mobility to target areas of the body. Yin, often known as the “quiet practice,” is a series of grounded, passive, and longer held postures that work to train your nervous system to relax while gently tugging on the connective tissues of the body. Myofascial release provides stimulation to the body’s largest sensory organ, the fascia, to facilitate healthy glide between all moving tissues of the body. Among the benefits of this practice are increased blood circulation, lymphatic flow, range of motion, and down-regulation of the nervous system, which results in an overall sense of well being. Class is suitable for all.

Join Nancy for kid’s yoga in the park this summer! This class is designed to foster self-love, self- confidence, and self-regulation through play and creativity. Dance, wiggle, do yoga, play games, and learn techniques to regulate emotions as well as the nervous system. Your child will learn to implement yoga’s “sacred pause,” which gives us the power of choice: when we can slow down in moments of high emotion, we can calm our bodies and minds, and from that place we are able to take intentional action.

Join Kristin to melt the accumulation of daily tension with a beautiful mixture of movement and rest. During the first half of class, give your body what it wants: progress through a gentle warm up into a creative yoga flow; open your joints, fire up the core, flow and stretch, breathe and work. Then, transition into what your body needs: myofascial release for tight muscles, followed by restful, restorative poses to calm the nervous system and melt away stress.
