Section Notes

Online | Road to Resiliency (Mat and Chair Yoga) | Our trauma-informed yoga class helps ease pain caused by emotional, mental, or physical trauma, which the body remembers even if we dont. New research shows how trauma impacts us and what we can do with that experience. Benefits include strengthening the vagus nerve, creating new neural pathways, improving self-awareness, self-care, and self-love. The class also helps manage stress and pain. Students are encouraged to bring a notebook and pen for journaling activities. Please wear comfortable clothing and bring a yoga strap, two blocks, and a blanket if needed. | Note: Attendance in online class sessions Wednesdays from 9:30- 11am is mandatory for section 901.
