SunDo
Kim Hedegaard of Body Awareness Therapeutic Massage
Tuesday, September 21
6:00pm – 7:30pm
Grab your yoga mat and join us for a new class that joins movement and meditation, SunDo! Using Taoist meditation techniques, practitioners will progress through special sets of postures that are held while breathing very slowly and deeply. Together, the postures and breath work help to revitalize the body and mind by cultivating Qi – the life-force energy within us.

Co-op Qigong
Rebecca James-Alsum
Saturday, September 25
10:30am – 11:30am
Join us for a Qigong session that includes the Five Elements from Spring Forest Qigong with instructor Rebecca Alsum. Qigong is the practice and study of energy flow that can be used to harmonize the body, breath, and mind. This practice combines meditation, breathing techniques, and simple movements to cultivate one’s qi and create space for healing the body. You do not need anything but your body and breath for this practice and can wear whatever clothing is comfortable. The motions are simple and accessible for all ages and abilities. Join us for this gentle yet powerful healing practice.
Local participants wishing to join Rebecca in person can do so at Svälja Yoga, located at 16 1/2 N. 1st Ave. W., Duluth, MN 55802. There will be a sliding fee for in-person attendance to cover the cost of the studio. More about Svälja below:

We share the wisdom and practice of yoga in a way that is accessible, inclusive, and honors choice. Yoga means to unite. Yoga is a pathway to well-being and to the realization of our innate wholeness. We guide participants to connect with their internal resources and potential for healing, transformation, and growth. Through this exploratory journey we rediscover home, deep within: our true selves
