9:30am Gyrokinesis with Patrie Sardo in the Greylock Studio
Rooted in Yoga, Tai Chi, gymnastics, dance and swimming, this class will allow you to rediscover your ability to move through space with grace and ease, whether you’re engaging in your favorite sport, dancing or just walking. Participants will be introduced to this unique form of movement through intentional sitting, deep breathing, and elongating and rocking the spine to release tension from the nervous system, before moving to floor sequences to deepen our deepest core strength and increase range of motion. Class finishes with a rhythmic, standing sequence for balance and cardiovascular stimulation followed by a calming unwinding to help you reintegrate back into the world. Maximum 20 participants
5:30pm Spin with Rachel Louis in the Upper Lasell Spin Studio
Each uplifting 45-minute class is constructed around safe and anatomically focused transitions and cues, diverse terrains to simulate the “outdoor” experience, and heart rate training and working within the rider’s zones for maximum benefit. Maximum 15 participants
12:00pm Athletic Yoga with Ashleigh Yager in the '62 Center Studio
This is not yoga “by the book.” Build strength, flexibility and perseverance in all planes of motion while developing the confidence to move freely as individuals (because who cares what it looks like if it doesn’t feel appropriate for one’s own body?). With a focus on slow and steady movement linked to breath, sweaty dynamic sequences, and prolonged isometric holds, this class is intended for those who have some knowledge of yoga and are ready to challenge their practice. Maximum 30 participants
5:30pm Building Muscle and Mobility with Katherine Myers in the Greylock Main Room
This class will focus on improving (or maintaining) strength, posture, flexibility, and range of motion. We will use mostly bodyweight exercises and occasionally some equipment in a series of dynamic strength and circuit training. You bring a mat, water, and a set of resistance loops if you have them. We'll bring plenty of modifications to accommodate all levels of fitness and experience. All are welcome!. Maximum 20 participants
