Description
Over 20% of the US population experiences chronic pain. This means that 1 in 5 of our family members, friends, neighbors and work colleagues live with pain that has persisted for at last six months.
We have brought together four of our most gifted instructors to bring complementary strategies to those who experience chronic, persistent pain. Mindfulness Meditation, Alexander Technique, Yoga and Tai Chi Chih all have shown in research studies to help participants manage their chronic pain and lead more optimal lives.
A health history and intake form must be completed for new students. You may submit those forms online or print them out to mail in.
A screening with Marina or Mari is a prerequisite for participation in either the Yoga or Mindful Movement classes. Participants may choose one class series or a combination of two or more. We will help guide you to the right starting point for you!
