Join OmBody Health every Wednesday for Earthing Yoga on the Eastern Prom! This all levels class focuses on building connection with the earth, our bodies and each other through sensory awareness, movement, mindfulness, and gratitude. “Earthing” is a fast-growing movement based on the principle that connection with the Earth is vital to our health. To facilitate this connection, we’ll do yoga on the bare Earth with no mats* or props.

The class will be taught by our certified yoga teachers (see bios below) and instructed in a unique, yet accessible manner which blends Hatha and Yin styles. Expect a practice with an optimal blend of mobility-enhancing and mindful movement, along with the chance to hold nourishing postures in stillness for a period of time to balance out the hectic energy of your busy life. Leave feeling relaxed, restored, and more connected with the Earth and your community. No previous experience with yoga is necessary. All ages welcome, although children under 12 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

*Feel free to bring a mat or beach towel if you’d prefer.

Cost:
This class is donation-based and open to the general public. There is no minimum donation. 50% of the proceeds will benefit OmKids, our non-profit subsidiary which brings mindfulness programs to public schools.
