Start your year out with self care at this special edition of Slow Jams Yoga, when resident Reunion yoga instructor Lauren Ash. In this class, she'll break down chadarunga dandasana and other frequently occurring yoga asanas (postures) involved in vinyasa yoga—halfway lift, plank, low plank, upward dog, and downward dog. This is for new yogis who are mystified or challenged by some of thees postures, or for anyone who wants a refresher or wants to dig deeper! We'll enjoy music by some of Chicago's most amazing artists from the past and now. Please bring a yoga mat, and a friend who has been wanting to try yoga in a fun, affirming setting.
