9:00 AM - 10:00 AM	Yoga 2025 - Yoga - Fall/Winter 2025 This yoga class provides light hearted instruction in breathing techniques, alignment and body awareness in a friendly, community atmosphere.   This is a beginning level class appropriate for those who are new to yoga, returning to a practice or those with a beginner's mind. Those with injuries or physical limitations will be assisted in finding safe and comfortable adaptations. The emphasis is on Basic Floor poses, along with some standing poses and final relaxation; this is not a power or Vinyasa class. Yoga offers the opportunity to learn to better manage stress, improve concentration, flexibility and balance.

It’s the anti-aging workout for active older adults who are looking to improve balance, flexibility, and strength. For our “Barre Tenders”, the barre (or in most cases for students – a chair) is used as a prop for balance, while performing low-impact exercises that focus on isometric strength training (holding your body still while you contract a specific set of muscles) combined with high reps of small range-of-motion movements. For our class: NO actual Barre is required, just a chair or a solid surface (table, countertop, etc). Please note, however: There is no seated work with this program, you will be standing for the duration of class.*Water, towel, and light hand weights are recommended -- but not required.This class will be held in person and live streamed via ZOOM.

10:00 AM - 11:30 AM	Tai Chi 2025 - Tai Chi Class - Fall/Winter 2025 Philipstown Tai Chi Class Marc Sabin teaches Tai Chi as a body/mind/spiritual practice. He guides students with great care, focusing on postural misalignments, internal dynamics and the powerful health benefits of the practice. When done correctly, Tai Chi is a well-rounded physical regimen that facilitates more comfort, greater mobility and increased strength. The gentle movements improve balance and equilibrium. Its benefits go far beyond a relaxed form of exercise and helps restore overall vitality. After a series of careful Qigong warm-ups, the Beginners’ Class focuses on the first eight postural movements of the popular Yang Family Tai Chi Form.  About MarcMarc’s studies began in 1976. Before devoting himself to Tai Chi, he earned two black belts and an advanced diploma in Escrima, a Filipino stick-fighting art. He is a highly regarded instructor.
