KYWC News – October 2022


Hello Friends,

The 2022 season is winding down but we have a lot going on for you in the next few months! We look forward to seeing you at our classes and events.

We hope you are enjoying the chilly, yet beautiful change of seasons that Fall in the North Country brings. As the summer flowers fade,  trees ready themselves for winter with a farewell display of bright colors. They make our grounds look so pretty. We invite you to come and enjoy a stroll on the trail, walk the labyrinth, and explore our Artist’s Pathway. Bring your camera. Leashed pets are also welcome!

We also invite you to attend our regularly scheduled classes and events, as well as the special restorative and teen yoga classes we have for you in October and November.

NEW!! Candlelight Restorative Yoga  (Special 90-minute Class)

Restorative yoga relaxes the muscles by using props to support the body. In some restorative postures, you will also receive a gentle stretch. Restorative yoga poses are held anywhere from 5–20 minutes. The mental health benefits of this gentle yet profound style of yoga, attributed to BKS Iyengar, are well-documented—from reduced stress, anxiety, and depression to improved sleep, and overall quality of life. We will begin with extended breathwork and a candlelight meditation. Come to release and let go of tension and worries, taking up residence in your mind and body ….. and leave it on the mat. All needed restorative props will be supplied.

Sunday October 30th @ 6:00 – 7:30 pm

Sunday November 20th @ 6:00 – 7:30 pm

NEW !!!!!  Yoga and Mindfulness for Pre-Teens and Teens (Special 75-minute class ages 12-16)

Sunday, November 27th 3:30-5:00 pm

This class provides a non-competitive environment for teens and preteens to explore more complex poses and asana than in classes for younger children, as well as breathing exercises, movement games, mindfulness activities, and much-needed relaxation techniques. 

Students learn techniques for concentrating, reducing stress, and connecting to their bodies in a loving way, while still being playful and fun. Classes often revolve around a philosophical theme and may include discussion, journaling, or mindful art.
