Yoga infused Pilates for Core Strength, Flexibility, Meditation, and Breathwork 

Strength is important. It allows us to perform all the activities we love for the rest of our lives. By focusing on our core, we can access the muscles that support our bodies. Studying the practice founded by Joseph Pilates, we look at how to incorporate these movements and exercises into a yoga/Pilates fusion class that will strengthen the body, increase flexibility and improve our balance. Classes can be done with body weight exercises or with light weights if you would like to bring your own. Some exercise bands will be available to use as well. At Reeds Brook Middle School

Be an EMPOWERED Empath!  

You’ve heard the term but do you know if you are one?  Here are just a few signs: Do you read or feel people's emotions without even trying? Are you highly sensitive, feeling everything very deeply?  Are you known as a human lie detector?  Do you find people always gravitate towards you for help or advice?  Do you often feel overwhelmed in large crowds?  Feel overly sensitive to the news?  Found yourself in a relationship with a Narcissist?  You might be an empath!  Instead of feeling overwhelmed, frustrated and drained, Angie will teach you how to be an empowered empath so you can use these “sensing” abilities to feel confident, set and hold boundaries, become a manifesting queen (or king), and an incredibly compassionate healer and friend.   1 ½  hour class
