This all-levels class invites you to reconnect—with your body, your breath, and the natural world—through a gentle, grounding flow inspired by the rhythms of nature and the energy of early summer blooms. Set in a peaceful, restorative garden, you’ll move mindfully, breathe deeply, and take in the fresh air and soft morning light.
Beginners, pregnant students, and those seeking a softer practice will find accessible options, while more experienced practitioners can explore variations to deepen their poses. The class will also include a short meditation and an optional journaling reflection to help you settle in, listen inward, and connect more deeply with your surroundings.
Bring your mat and a journal (optional), and allow this tranquil outdoor experience to leave you feeling refreshed, rooted, and calm long after you leave the garden. No prior experience required.

Alexander Kasser Theater

Discover Rhapsody in Blue will be The Discovery Orchestra’s 7th public television production. From Bach to Saint-Saëns, our television programs have reached millions of viewers across the United States and around the world—significantly elevating the profile of The Discovery Orchestra and showcasing our signature approach to helping audiences listen more deeply to classical music.
This year, we turn to George Gershwin’s iconic Rhapsody in Blue, a dazzling fusion of classical tradition and jazz energy that captures the heartbeat of 1920s America. Its rhythmic brilliance, sweeping melodies, and unmistakable spirit continue to resonate with audiences. Join Maestro George Marriner Maull and The Discovery Orchestra as they uncover what makes this masterpiece so timeless—and why it continues to thrill us a century after its debut.
We are thrilled to feature special guest pianist <a href="https://claytonstephenson.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Clayton Stephenson</a>, an internationally-acclaimed virtuoso known for his joyful charisma, expressive depth, and fresh, poetic interpretations. His dynamic artistry brings a powerful new voice to Rhapsody, making this performance especially exciting.
We invite you to the stunning Alexander Kasser Theater at Montclair State University as we film this live Discovery Concert. Experience the electricity of a television production unfolding around you—the cameras, the lights, the behind-the-scenes choreography—and feel the excitement of being part of something created for millions to enjoy. Your presence will add energy and authenticity to the program!
Event Details: Sunday, June 14, 2026 3:00 – 4:30pm (must be seated by 2:45pm!) Alexander Kasser Theater at Montclair State University 1 Normal Avenue, Montclair, NJ 07043
