Please check the forecast and AQHI one hour prior to the event.”\n\nSlow Yoga – In Slow Yoga’s accessible classes\, our theme is “only connect.” We listen to the intelligence of our body\, our limits and possibilities. No perfect poses\, only a deepening awareness and focus. To mesh mind and body\, we integrate poetry and yoga philosophy into our meditation and movement. In grounding ourselves\, we enhance balance and steadiness. In holding the pose\, we uncover stillness and strength. In working towards our edge\, we cultivate resilience. Through joint mobility gestures\, we ease our pain. In letting go “like a leaf” we surrender ourselves to the present — the here and now. Invite yoga’s joy into your life. Remind your senses of everyday pleasures. \nAbout Your Teacher: Seeking relief from stress in 1979\, Janice’s introduction to asanas (postures)\, pranayama (breath work)\, and meditation happened during a four-month Sivananda yoga ashram residency. The experience  demonstrated how yoga could uplift one’s whole being. Since then she has explored various yoga styles: Hatha\, Iyengar\, Ashtanga\, Yin\, and Flow along with Pilates and Zen Meditation. After retirement from a 32-year career as professor of literary/cultural studies and creative writing at the University of Alberta\, she completed 500+hr Advanced Yoga and Restorative Yoga Alliance certified teacher trainings. She also interned and trained in Yin Yoga\, Chair Yoga\, Mindful Meditation\, and Yoga for joint mobility\, osteoarthritis and osteoporosis. Janice teaches group\, semi-private\, and private yoga classes\, as well as Yoga Writes Workshops.  Rise Up Yoga
