Gail’s Yoga Teaching Schedule – Updated May/June 2019

Monday at 6:15 PM – $10 Beginners Yoga.  Held at Wesley United Methodist Church, 3515 Helena Avenue, Nederland, Texas 77627.  Held in the Gym in the Christian Life Center (CLC) Building.  The CLC is the most southern building on the church property.

Who can attend? Any faith may attend this public class.  You do not have to be a member of the church to attend this beginners class.  Ages 12 and up are welcomed. Please call Gail at 409-727-3177 if you are pregnant and wish to take yoga.  An assessment of your yoga ability will be taken.  You may qualify for public classes, or need a few private yoga lessons prior to attending Beginners Yoga classes.

Childcare available? After attending your first class, and you need childcare, childcare can be arranged at no additional cost.  For details in childcare arrangements, talk to the yoga teacher.

What else?  Come a bit early your first time, so that you can register.  Bring a yoga mat (I do have extras if you don’t have one your first time to attend), wear comfortable clothing.  Typically yoga is done without shoes on, but if you want to, you may wear “grippy” socks or tennis shoes.

One Last Thing… Be sure to wear either layer for your top or a form-fitting top.  We do a pose in our Beginners Yoga class called, Downward Facing Dog.  You basically look like an “Upside Down” Letter, “V”, and sometimes shirts will ride up your backside!  Whoops!  Here’s my young daughter demonstrating!

Thursday at 10:00 AM – $5 – Adaptive Chair Yoga. Free or $ 5. FREE to those who have Multiple Sclerosis, or are a caretaker and attend the class.   Held at Wesley United Methodist Church, 3515 Helena Avenue, Nederland, Texas 77627.  Held in the foyer of the church sanctuary – The sanctuary is the most northern building on the church property. Doors open at 9:40 AM, if you wish to come early and visit with other attendees.

Others attending, we ask that you bring $5 for our BackPack Buddy Food Ministry,

Who can attend? Those with MS and their caretakers attend for free. Open to any faith.  You do not have to be a member of the church to attend this public class.  Other adults may attend, but we ask that you bring $5 donation for our BackPack Buddy Food Ministry.

Childcare available? No. Since this class is held during the time when we have Mother’s Day Out Program at the church, there is no childcare available.

What Else?  Come a bit early your first time to register!

Just some of the poses that we will do in our beginners class on Monday.  Don’t worry, we won’t do ALL of these poses in one class, that would be a LONG class.  Over a 6 week period though, we will hit most of the major poses and their variations, that we use to fit your flexibility and strength.  Most people increase their flexibility and gain a lot of strength and balance through consistent practice.  Love teaching beginners!
