“On Mondays we will meet on the cafe area from the amazing 8th Day shop.

Set up your mat, look around you – YOU ARE SAFE!

You don’t need to be able to put your feet behind your head. You don’t need to do meditation 30 minutes a day. Do you know what you need to come to our classes?

Put your phone on airplane mode. Bring an open mind and heart, and let’s go.

We will set an intention for our class and we will bring some movement to our body. We will get more familiar with each other and with the poses, we will laugh and move!”

Please bring your own mat if you have one – if not, we have spares.
