Yoga

Join Haley for an all-levels yoga class offering standing, balancing, and seated poses with plenty of modifications and props. This class will begin with a warming and heart-opening yang practice to allow energy to flow throughout the body. The second half will focus on yin postures held longer to stretch the connective tissues and help us relax even the deepest layers of the body. This class combines a balance of both movement and stillness, strength and flexibility, and physicality and mindfulness.

Shades: What is my identity?

Join us for Shades: What Is My Identity? on Monday, November 9, from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM in the Diversity Center. We'll begin with a presentation on intentionality and identity, exploring how our experiences, values, cultures, and communities shape who we are. Participants will then create a personalized stick figure craft, using colors, symbols, words, and drawings to represent the many parts of their identity and reflect on what makes them uniquely themselves.
