This beginner-friendly birding event will be led by Michelle Platt and Laura Boggess of the Handlan Chapter of the Brooks Bird Club in Charleston.

GENTLE | Softening Into Support | 5–6:15 p.m. Thursdays Fewer postures, slower transitions, and no repeated chaturanga/cardio sequence create more spaciousness to sense, explore mobility, build strength, and notice the subtleties of our experience. Gentle doesn't mean no challenge. We'll still play (emphasis on play!) with engagement, balance, and progression—because nervous-system flexibility isn't about avoiding activation. Instead, we’ll explore what can soften when we know we are supported—and how much effort is actually enough for this moment. FLOW | Responsive Strength | 6:30–7:45 p.m. Thursdays Flow brings more movement, transitions, cardiovascular engagement, and progressive builds—with opportunities to explore strength, balance, more complex expressions of poses, and the option of a peak pose (or two!). But the invitation is never simply to achieve the "advanced" pose. This series, we’ll explore strength without unnecessary rigidity: Can I meet challenge, respond to what my body is telling me, and use enough effort without automatically reaching for more? Both practices will continue to include optional hands-on assists, as well as our end-of-practice ritual many of you already know: savasana with optional hands-on occipital release (with or without essential oils) and end-of-the-series hot towel ritual (now more often with our slightly shorter series!). Because letting go isn't the absence of effort. Sometimes it is discovering that we don't need more effort than this moment requires. And receiving support is part of the practice, too.

Two ways to explore the same practice: Both Gentle and Flow will share the same theme, breath practice, and physiological focus—but will explore them with different pacing and levels of activation.

And then... we come Full Circle. After five weeks of practice, our Gentle and Flow communities will have the opportunity to come together for FULL CIRCLE—a special closing experience designed not to ask us to release one more thing, but to notice what becomes available when we make a little more room. We’ll move from doing into receiving with an extended sound healing, followed by the option to stay after for reflection and optional sharing, simple snacks and drinks, conversation (think questions we haven't previously had time to explore), and time to simply... be together. A collective exhale—and an opportunity to receive what is already here.
