$40 / free for members
Reach, support, and bear weight with confidence! Join Dragana Pavic-Zappia for an afternoon practice exploring the connections and key actions that create stability through the intelligence of the upper limbs.
Through foundational poses, we’ll explore the actions that prepare the body for arm balances and backbends. The class will be both engaging and accessible for all levels.
If you’ve been curious about Iyengar Yoga, this is an excellent opportunity to experience the method and learn from a certified teacher.
