YMCA yoga class begins at Camp Yomechas

The YMCA’s Fall I 2008 session of yoga begins Thursday, Sept. 11. A new
meditation class will be offered from 6-7 p.m., and All Levels Yoga
(beginner through intermediate) meets at its new time, from 7-8:15 p.m.
Classes are held at Camp Yomechas Lodge, 375 Wareham St. (Rte. 28). Phone
508-947-1390 or visit the website www.oldcolonyymca.org to register.

From the moment participants turn off Rte. 28 onto the camp road, the
serenity of this natural setting allows daily cares to recede, and everyone
is ready to delve into their class. Meditation class teaches a new technique
each week to help everyone relax and renew. The Hatha Yoga class utilizes
three ingredients: stretching, breathing, and relaxation to coax the body
into classic yoga poses, so one leaves the class refreshed and optimistic.
Nancy Brady Cunningham has over 30 years experience teaching yoga, and is
also the author of five books about meditation and ceremony, two of which
are available at the Middleboro Public Library.

Both the meditation and the yoga sessions are eight weeks in duration, and
cost $65 for YMCA members, and $96 for non-members.

For meditation class the Y provides the chairs. For the Hatha yoga, everyone
should bring an exercise mat, a blanket, and a small pillow to class.
