Join Catherine Brooks, Niki Schemmel, and Sarah Fischer for a playful, heart-opening practice that is more yoga jam session than serious class. Kula is a sanskrit word translated as "Community of the Heart", a community of like-minded individuals. Kula Jam is a monthly gathering of the Richmond yoga kula in a joyful celebration of life. This is a mixed-level open practice where students of yoga come together with friends to play, ask questions, and socialize. Each month Catherine, Niki, or Sarah will bring her own spin to the session as we explore alignment, asana, and heart-centered themes under the guide of the positive life-affirming Tantric philosophy that Life is Good!
Mixed-Level - at least 6 months yoga experience recommended. No Beginners Please. Contact Sarah at spack2@hotmail.com to register!
Studio Members Welcome!
$10 Every 3rd Saturday from 2:00 - 3:30 p.m.
