Join veteran yoga teachers, Laura Terry and Whitney Wilkerson, for this live, online 3

Explore the building blocks of purposeful and mindful yoga, including common poses and
sequences, pranayama (breathing exercises) and guided mindfulness practice.

Each class will build on the one before, offering opportunities to integrate the information and
practice on your own between sessions.

Opportunity to adapt the practice to your own body and your body’s history through modifications offered throughout (no need to be
super flexible or athletic!)

This series is also great for yoga teachers or aspiring yoga teachers looking to teach a
mindful and compassionate approach to yoga for beginner or mixed level classes.
