We’re pleased to bring the following new Yoga programs to Everett Unity.
Seated Yoga
Facilitated by: Cara VanDyke
Date: BEGINS Nov. 8, 2nd Friday of the month, 6:30 p.m.
Location: Social Hall
Donation: $15 (or comfortable amount per session)
As with all we do, these classes are open to everyone, so feel free to bring your family and friends. This gentle form of yoga is practiced in a chair. Some standing poses will be practiced (chairs can be used for support). We will focus on strength, flexibility, balance, and breath. All welcome – including those with mobility challenges, those recovering from surgery, pregnant moms in any stage of pregnancy, and moms in post-birth recovery! After some gentle movement, the class will transition to practicing relaxation, breathwork, and meditation techniques. Wear comfortable clothes that allow for a range of movement and stretching. Wear layers or bring a blanket for the 2nd half of class.

Gentle Yoga
Facilitated by: Cara VanDyke
Date: BEGINS Nov. 22, 4th Friday of the month, 6:30 p.m.
Location: Social Hall
Donation: Pay what you can (suggested $10-$20 per session)
This class is designed to open the body with gentle, slow, and traditional yoga postures and movements. It’s a combination of postures coordinated with the breath, performed at a gentle pace which allows time to be present in each pose. After some gentle movement, the class will transition to a restorative practice with longer holds, deeper stretches, and relaxation techniques. This is an all-level class and is suitable for just about anyone. Participants should wear comfortable clothes that allow for a range of movement and stretching. Yoga mats are provided or bring your own.
Registered Yoga Teacher Cara VanDyke (she / her) approaches the yoga postures as a practice focused on alignment and the functional movement of the body. Her classes are structured with intelligence sequencing that is accessible to all level of students and allows one to be in a state of ease. Cara is dedicated to anti-racism work and instruction that honors the roots and traditions of yoga. You can count on her to create a safe and judgement-free space where every student can develop a personal practice that extends off the mat and into their life.
