I’m here to report Sheri’s class is exactly as advertised, gentle/beginner yoga! I was able to attend the first free class (6/15) if you missed it, catch us next week. We’ll be in the grass near the boat launch every Wednesday from 5:30-6:30 through the summer! It’s the most welcoming location for a yoga class I’ve ever attended. Everyone had so much space to spread out, find shade, and be in the “back of the class”. I enjoyed looking out over the lake, feeling the gentle breeze, and focusing on relaxing my tired, stiff muscles. The stretching does great things for my body and my mind! I cherish the time to focus on my breath and relax into poses with the many modifications Sheri offers during class. She even said, “I don’t give bonus points if you can bend over and touch the mat.” This class is accepting of any physical limitation or old injury that stubbornly sticks with us. I invite each of you to give this class a try, especially if you’ve never done yoga. You don’t need a mat, a towel works too! The class is free but we do ask that you sign up with Sheri, if there is a change because of rain or you need a gentle reminder signing up ahead of time ensures we can communicate information to you.

Please arrive 15 minutes early to sign in, set up your mat/towel, and say hello!
If the grass is really wet or we have a VERY strong chance of rain, we will cancel the class and notify you via email.
Feel free to contact Sheri at [email protected].

Looks like it was great!
Looks like many took advantage of this opportunity.
We used our State Park pass to get into Herrington and hike yesterday. Beautiful place.
I’ve tried yoga more than once and just can’t seem to get it. I know a lot of people really like it and get a lot out of it. This program will be great for them.
Wow! What a great turn out! I encouraged participants in TOPS (weight loss support group) to check this great opportunity out next Wednesday after our meeting. Go YOGA!
I heard good things about the class.
Looks like you had a good turn out. Glad it was successful
GC in motion doing great things. Glad so many people took advantage of free yoga!
Sounds like a good turnout!
That would be an incredible way to do yoga.
What a great idea!
That looks like a great turnout.
Herrington Manor State Park offers great opportunities for recreation and fun.
