Relax deeply.
Join us for a special yoga class combining the deep relaxation of Restorative Yoga with the energy-clearing of Reiki. During this 75-minute class, you'll be guided into passive, restful poses that soothe the nervous system and leave you feeling rested. Meanwhile, you'll experience a taste of Reiki work to help remove eneegy blocks. You'll have the option to experience gentle touch (for example, on your head), or experience hands-off Reiki work.
This class is perfect for all yoga levels, including beginners. No prior yoga or Reiki experience necessary.
Join us on Sunday, February 15 at 5:30 pm at The Perch!
