Just a brief reminder that there is no yoga tonite at the UU Church! See you next week!

When the issue of balance is brought up, I usually see people roll their eyes and begin a lament about how bad their balance is. Balance certainly is a “use it or lose it” skill. After about age 40 years, we are all well advised to practice our balance routinely as it influences our health [...]

Monday nites we meet to practice at the UU Church ( 2672 E. Alluvial Ave. Clovis) from 6:30-8pm. We have mats, blankets and straps. All we need is YOU. Bring a friend if you’d like. Donation only class, with donations going to the Church. Come and enjoy some time to focus on YOU.

On Monday nites at the UU Church of Fresno (2672 E. Alluvial, Clovis) we come together in a beautiful, comfortable environment to explore how our yoga practice can create a special place within each of us. Yoga can bring new dimensions to your life. Come. Give it a try from 6:30-8pm. Thanks to my friend [...]

Each of us place value and meaning to everything. I challenge you this week, rather than learning a new pose, instead, to think about why you are drawn to yoga. I clearly remember my first yoga class with my teacher Cindy. She asked me what I wanted from my yoga practice. I knew that I [...]

In general, it is a quite practice, which focuses on connective tissue stretching (rather than muscular work). This practice brings about a meditative quality than many find takes longer to develop in Yang (the more [...]
