Upcoming Online Yoga Class with Dallas SWE!

by Dallas SWE on in Special Events

Turn social distancing into personal deepening! Please join Dallas SWE for a special online yoga class on April 23rd at 7pm. 

We will do a vinyasa flow class, which is a dynamic flow class led by the breath. Traditional postures blend together in unique sequences like a thread of mindful movement to build strength in the legs and core while increasing flexibility in the hips and spine. All levels welcomed.

We hope this allows our Dallas SWE community the opportunity to strengthen mindfulness and work all components of wellness including physical and mental, while providing a safe, at-home workout.
