Streaming Nia and Restorative Yoga Classes via Zoom with Linda All Free! Week of Nov. 30th Broadway Routine and new Restorative class starts Mondays at 5PM

 

Come bring out your inner Broadway baby!  We will move to the hits you can sing along to and get rid of any leftover turkey and stuffing. Hopefully you got to spend the holiday with some loved ones or at least had a good meal to yourself.

If you are new to Nia with Linda, these streaming classes are free.  Share with anyone who you feel needs a little movement in their lives during this period of social isolation.

So here is how it works.  It will be easier for you if you download the Zoom client for meetings for a desktop or laptop, or the app for phones and tablets.

Click here for the link to download the zoom client or the app

Then click on this link to bring to my website and the list of streaming classes

At my website, niawithlinda.com, you will want to click on the link for the class and time you are trying to join.  Otherwise you will be all alone!

If you have downloaded the client/app, the meeting will open automatically in that interface.

If you have not downloaded the app/client, it should open in a web browser.

You can join early and sit in the waiting room. No magazines but no doctors either.

I’ll leave the audio open till the class starts.  If I leave the audio on, it interferes with my audio and we can’t have that!  I’ll open it back up at the end.  If you need to get my attention, you can raise your hand.  It is an icon in the middle of the bottom of the screen.

If you need any techie help, call me  617-851-2738  or email me at contact@niawithlinda.com

Find a little space in your home and be prepared to move and have fun.

Who couldn’t use that right now.

Feel free to share these invitations to classes with anyone who needs it.

Love to all and stay healthy,

Upper Body Self Myofascial Release and Nerve Gliding Workshop with Megan Ghirardi and Abby Strauss-Malcolm (In Studio and Virtual)

Sunday, December 13, 2:30-4:00pm

In this workshop Abby Strauss-Malcolm and Megan Ghirardi create a space of self-study, leading you through techniques to ease stress, unravel tension, increase range of motion and sensation in the upper body. With Abby you’ll learn to navigate the myofascial meridians, which are long fibrous pathways of connective tissue that contract and adhere from habitual movement, poor posture, inflammation, and injury. With Megan you’ll learn and practice a series of simple nerve gliding or nerve flossing techniques that can help mobilize irritated and compressed nerves while relieving discomfort and increasing freedom of movement. The combination of self-massage through myofascial and trigger point release, nerve glide techniques and breath awareness relax the muscles, improving blood flow and lymphatic circulation. This workshop will leave you with a greater sense of freedom and balance in your own body.

Props Needed: 1 yoga block, 1 blanket and 2 tennis balls. Softer balls are available for purchase at the studio.

Lead by Abby Strauss-Malcolm 200-hour RYT, 750-hour CMT and Megan Ghirardi 500-hour RYT
