With the Spring Equinox a few days away, as plants and animals awake and blossom around us, we'll come together to awaken our bodies and minds through a restorative and relaxing weekend practice.
This workshop will include hands-on healing of Thai massage, Shiatsu, Craniosacral Therapy, and Acupuncture during prolonged, supported Restorative yoga poses, with an emphasis on deep releases, letting go of stagnant energy, and softening into the new season.
Comfortable clothing is suggested. Props (blocks, bolsters, and blankets) will be provided.
Limited number of mats are available. Bring your own mat, and any additional props and optional eye pillow if you like.

Covid Safety
Please email your proof of covid vaccination to connect@thebymc.com or if not vaccinated, arrive with a negative covid test that was taken within a day of the event. Wear a mask when you arrive to the studio. We will conduct an anonymous poll at the start of class to see if anybody needs everyone to stay masked to be safe. If that need isn't present then individuals can choose to practice with or without masks. This is the best way for us to care for our most vulnerable.
