OM yoga center for vinyasa hatha yoga classes in New York City

[Guest guest]

I've been chatting with , the girl that is filming the documentary on

RA (Priority Seating Project that Joan posted) She is doing a documentary

on rheumatic diseases to help educate others about RA. She told me about a

special yoga workshop that is being developed specifically for people with

autoimmune disorders. Her friend is teaching the class, and she will be

helping out a bit. The class will be

super gentle and will give people breathing techniques, and exercises to

improve tone and circulation, as well as to relieve tension in the

muscles and joints. It will be held on Sunday, August 10th from 3 to 6

pm at OM Yoga on West 14th Street in NYC (near the Path for NJ

residents). I think this could be a great thing -- and if enough people

show up they may be able to convince the yoga center to offer these kind

of classes more regularly. The workshop costs $35, and pre-registration

in required by calling 212.229.0267. However, she explained to the yoga

center that people with autoimmune diseases generally can't plan

anything in advance, so the yoga center agreed to offer a full refund to

anyone who can't make it due to flares, etc. If anyone is close enough and

can attend, please let us know about it.
