What to Expect at Twilight Flow
Twilight Yoga Flow is a chance to flow slowly and gently into moments of stillness as day turns into night at the flower farm.
Embrace this opportunity to move some energy around at the end of the day, let something go, and settle into rest. Drawing inspiration from the shifts in the seasons, this class reflects a time of transition in autumn when we start to slow things down and enter into periods of longer darkness. Let’s ease our way in together.
This open-level class is suitable for all levels of experiences, and Maya offers variations so you can choose what feels best in your body.
Every Wednesday from 5:30-6:30 pm through the end of November!

What to Expect at Yin Yoga
Yin Yoga is a beautiful complement to our more active Yang lifestyles and practices. Here, we slow down and hold poses of stillness, typically for 3-5 minutes, using props for support. The intention of a longer hold on a physical level is to stimulate and nourish the connective tissues and fascia rather than the muscles.
We also work consciously with the breath and the mind-body connection through holding these poses and cultivating awareness of sensations that arise. Yin Yoga draws from Daoism and the Five Element Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine as different poses relate to specific organs and meridians in the body, supporting and balancing one’s energy.
Every Friday from 10-11:15 am through the end of November!

Where is this Magical Yurt?
The Fogwood Gardens Yurt is located on Old Stage Road in Arrowsic, Maine, less than ten minutes over the bridge from Bath! After class, take advantage of this beautiful area by taking a freshwater swim at nearby Sewall’s Pond or heading over to Georgetown to enjoy the ocean at Reid State Park, hike some trails, or go clamming at Sagadahoc Bay.
