The Gift of Peace: Embracing the Birth of Christ through Movement and Stillness, A Christian Yoga Class Outline for Christmas

The Christian elements woven through the practice of this Christmas yoga class will help one align physical movements with spiritual reflection, making this a meditative and meaningful experience as one focuses on the reason for Christmas.

This class integrates Christian elements (scripture, prayer, meditation, etc.) and yoga techniques (postures, breathwork, etc.) to connect the body, mind, and spirit, focusing on peace, joy, and gratitude, inspired by the birth of Jesus.

Throughout the class, you’ll be encouraged to move with grace and ease, honoring the wisdom of the body while taking time for quiet reflection during each posture. 

There is also space and time to move faster, add your own elements or linger longer.
