All Ages Yoga: This one is for every body, whether you're a seasoned yogi, or a literal baby (accompanied by a grownup), a first-timer, pre/post-natal* or anywhere else in your life's journey - I welcome you! Babies and kiddos are especially welcome and my little yogi may join us too :) Each week we'll switch between a joyful, slow flow class and a more grounded practice with longer stretches and holds to open up the major muscle groups and release tension. Together we will cultivate strength, balance and flexibility in our mind and body. We'll end all of our classes with some restorative poses which will help create a sense of peace and connection within ourselves.

Plenty of opportunity to take this at your own pace. For parents and caregivers, feel free to take breaks to feed, diaper and interact with your baby/kiddo. For pregnant yogis, be mindful of and consider avoiding: deep backbends, heart-openers, closed twists (poses like camel, wheel, chair pose twist, etc). I hope to see you (and your little ones) at the park!

*as long as you're at least 6 weeks postpartum and cleared for physical movement

Come share an experience on the mat that will cultivate your physical, mental and spiritual well being. This class is excellent for beginners and students who enjoy gentle exercise. Stretch and strengthen the body as we progress together through various postures. You will learn functional alignment. If you like to move at a slower pace and want to clear your mind, this class is a great fit for you. Mostly, the class will be fun and joyful as we wind down the day together on the mat!

WHAT TO BRING

Comfortable clothing for the trails, curiosity, and any stories from Mattahunt that you may have.

This event will occur rain or shine, except in cases of severe weather such as thunderstorms. 

A Serve and Learn event is a special chance for community members to learn about wildlife, plants, and how we can care for our natural world. Not only can people "learn" through these events, but they can also put their newfound knowledge to work during the "serve" portion.

In this Serve and Learn, Urban Wilds staff will lead lessons on proper tree and shrub planting techniques as well as discuss the insect and mammal species these plants will support. Volunteers will get the chance to plant trees and shrubs in a few locations on site that were previously inhabited by invasive plants. 

Planting tools and gloves will be supplied, but if you have a favorite planting tool or pair of gloves, feel free to bring them!

* Please note that due to the involved nature of plant installation, staffing capacity, and the limited amount of space in the planting areas, we cannot guarantee that all volunteers will have the opportunity to plant. We will be monitoring the sign-ups and will offer up planting slots on a first come first basis. In addition to the planting, we will also offer an invasive plant removal component for volunteers that are interested. 

Saturday, April 11th, 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. (rain date Sunday April 12)

Meet at the Coniston Rd trailhead (see map below)
