MOUNTAINSIDE, NJ – The popular gentle yoga series at Trailside Nature & Science Center in Mountainside will resume on Tuesday nights throughout the winter months. Intended for adults 18 years and older, the series will begin on Tuesday, January 18, and continue for nine additional weeks through March 22.
“The yoga series for adults, held in the beautiful and tranquil setting of the Trailside Visitor Center, is a great way to relax and learn methods to reduce the stresses of daily life,” said Freeholder Vice Chairman Deborah Scanlon, liaison to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board.
This ten-week series is an opportunity to learn and experience Raja yoga techniques for integrating body and mind. Yoga instructor Claire M. Bay, certified by the Chopra Center in New York City, returns to Trailside to teach and guide the participants. Students will learn how to use nature’s healing powers to relieve stress. Soothing music will enhance the overall experience.
Each yoga session will run from 7:15 to 8:30 p.m. The fee is $15 per class for Union County residents and $20 for out-of-county participants. Pre-registration is preferred as space is limited; however, participants can register for individual sessions. Doors will open 15 minutes prior to each class. Participants are asked to bring a yoga mat or pillow.
Yoga classes will be offered on Tuesday evenings: Jan. 18 and 25; Feb. 1, 8, 15 and 22; and March 1, 8, 15, and 22.
