Christian Yoga Series

Soul Stretch Christian Yoga will join the Clawson Indoor Farmers Market at Clawson United Methodist Church, 205 N. Main St. one block north of 14 Mile Road select Fridays to present a special series. Join us in an exploration through the various forms of physical yoga and learn how to integrate your faith in Jesus Christ with your yoga practice.

November 1st - Slow FlowVinyāsa-style Yoga

The term vinyāsa refers to the alignment of movement and breath, a method which turns static poses into a dynamic flow. Come to experience sequential movement that interlinks postures, forming a continuous flow of yoga poses. In turn discover a beautiful movement meditation. 

November 8th - Salute to the Son Ashtanga-style Yoga

In this class attention is placed on the breath and the journey between the poses, rather than solely on achieving perfect body alignment in a pose. The order of poses is also completely predefined. Learn how the practice is comprised of four main parts: an opening sequence, one of the six main series, a back-bending sequence, and a set of inverted poses, referred to as the finishing sequence. Practice always ends with relaxation and personal prayer time. 

December 6th - Restorative/Yin Yoga

Yin Yoga is a slow-paced style of yoga with poses that are held for comparatively long periods of time--five minutes or longer per pose. Yin Yoga poses apply moderate stress to the connective tissues—the tendons, fascia, and ligaments—with the aim of increasing circulation in the joints and improving flexibility. It also presents a wonderful opportunity for learning to “Be still and know that He is God.”

All classes begin at 7PM and last approximately one hour. Please plan to bring a yoga mat if you have one. Cost will be $24 for the entire series, or $10 drop in. Visit soulstretch.org for more details on Soul Stretch Christian Yoga and to contact us to reserve your space.
