Senior Yoga
Yoga enhances your flexibility, but flexibility is not required in order to begin. Clear instructions are given – both for your safety and so you can learn to do the practice on your own if you wish. There is no pressure to perform any pose beyond your present ability. Every class begins with a warm-up and concludes with a guided deep relaxation. Rollin Stearns began teaching yoga at the Integral Yoga Institute in NYC in 1970.

So ditch the countless hours on the treadmill, elliptical, or stair master and unleash your true strength.

Karate
“This traditional Japanese karate class is designed for all ages and fitness levels! Traditional karate is founded on kihon, kata, and kumite. Learn the basic techniques (kihon) of Renbukai karate (stances, footwork, blocks, punches, kicks), then apply this foundation as you learn different kata – a sequence of techniques and movements. Non-contact partner training (kumite) will eventually be introduced as a way for you to apply your techniques, sharpen reflexes, and develop distance, timing and positioning. Improve coordination, strength, self-defense, and flexibility in a safe and welcoming environment. Karate is for anyone and everyone!”
