When we think of meeting the moment we may think of grand gestures, but what if it can start right here with a breath and a wiggle?

In this class we'll play with ways of meeting the close-in moment, our immediate experience, so that we might have more options and presence when the wider world calls to us. We'll have a chance to share our stories of overwhelm and aliveness and to play with embodied experiences that invite us into the present in playful and incremental ways. Join us for a fun, easy afternoon of connection and play.

COVID Protocol: Our goal is to provide a safe and welcoming environment for people with a wide variety of health situations. Please stay home if you’ve been sick in the last five days (we'd love to have you come another time). We welcome mask-wearing during class, and we run an air purifier in our high-ceiling space. If you have questions, please reach out to the leader via the link below.

Parking recommendations: Our lovely studio is in urban Oakland. If driving, we recommend parking on major streets like Grand Avenue and Telegraph Avenue (and not 23rd) and not leaving things in your vehicle. If you pay for parking with the Park Mobile app you might be able to add more to the meter virtually. We are also close to BART, several bus lines, and protected bike paths. There is good bike parking on Telegraph, and you're also welcome to bring your bike inside the studio.
