Tuesday April 23rd
Chair Yoga for Sexual Wellness with Merril
7:00pm
Quiet the mind by tapping into the body. Increase blood flow for overall health and sexual wellness with some basic chair yoga poses and breathing practices. Learn about the root and sacral chakras, and how they directly relate to sexual awakening and pleasure. No previous yoga experience necessary. No mat required, either. Just BYOB (bring your own body). This class is taught by Merril, a body-inclusive and trauma-informed yoga instructor.
From the Instructor: "In the practice of yoga, our bodies as a whole are sacred. But while we often talk of our hearts and our third eyes, we often neglect the elements of ourselves that are deeper, and more challenging to discuss. The Sacral Chakra is our source of creative and sexual energy. This combination makes for a potentially taboo conversation that is often neglected for the sake of avoiding discomfort. As an artist, feminist, and sex educator in an age of the #MeToo movement, I think it is more imperative than ever to acknowledge, address, and heal our whole selves. By recognizing and embracing that these energies in all their intertwining and intersectional forms are present within all of us, we can move forward to heal any trauma, become our own greatest ally, and ultimately, thrive in the creative joys we have the potential to manifest.
With over 15 years of dance teaching experience, and 5 years of yoga teaching experience, I have sought to connect the creative potential of these practices to embodied healing. I love seeing the developmental process of all bodies in motion, as well as in the subtle state of rest. By refocusing my teaching practices to the Sacral Chakra, I am able to link my political position with my embodied practices. I believe that yoga, creative movement, and social/political engagement are not irreconcilable entities, but are actually deeply entwined. Through Sacred Sacral, I endeavor to imagine and cultivate new spaces of healing, transformation, and ultimately, experiential empowerment."
