Classes at Uniontown YMCA
1 YMCA Dr., Uniontown, Pa. 15401
Short & Powerful Yoga Flow - 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 7, 14, 21 & 28
A 25-minute vinyasa-based all-levels power yoga class incorporating core, leg and arm strengthening postures that synch breath with movement. Standing poses and dynamic, heat-producing sequences rev up the metabolism and heart rate to leave you glowing and refreshed. Cool down with active stretching and hip openers. Modifications given for every body type and level (beginner to advanced). Feel emPOWERed by working from where you are. An excellent practice to do before Slow Flow, before or after your workout or by itself.
Slow Flow - 5 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 7, 14, 21 & 28 and 10 a.m., Nov. 3, 10, 16, 23 & 30
This all-levels flow (vinyasa) yoga class links breath with movement in a light and creative way. Moving at a slow, steady pace allows time for students to fully experience each posture, building strength and coordination in standing and balancing poses and deepening flexibility and relaxation in seated and supine stretches. Slow Flow increases mind-body awareness and total-body strength and provides a healthy challenge through graceful sequencing. This is a soul-soothing class perfect for new to advanced practitioners. 50 minutes.
Classes are free for YMCA members. Non-members can purchase punch cards at the front desk. $40 for 6 classes and $75 for 15 classes. Class passes do not expire.
Yin Yoga - 11 a.m., Friday, Nov. 3, 10, 16, 23 & 30
Yin Yoga, an all-levels practice, was developed as a means to improve hip and spinal health. Students hold seated and supine poses for two to 10 minutes in an effort to decompress the joints and remove blockages from the connective tissue (ligaments, tendons and fascia) with attention to breathing. Yin Yoga can provide a sense of therapeutic healing to the physical body and nervous system. This is an excellent, complementary practice to balance an active lifestyle, high impact sports, a busy work life and stress affecting the mind and soul. 30 minutes.

Yoga for Runners Workshop - 10 a.m.-12 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 10
The Yoga for Runners Workshop (two hours in length) is open to all levels of runners (beginners to elite) and yoga practitioners (no experience to advanced). The workshop includes a vinyasa-style yoga practice beginning with a dynamic sequence (designed to be performed pre-run as a warm-up) and moves seamlessly into sun salutations that link strength-building exercises and yoga poses targeting muscle groups specific to running. The physical portion of the workshop ends with a relaxing, cooling flow accompanied by longer-held poses aimed at releasing connective tissue and common tight areas in the body due to running. The workshop incorporates myo-fascial release exercises using foam rollers and therapy tools. Guided meditation and breath work (pranayama) designed to enhance running performance is interwoven throughout the practice. Participants will receive electronic copies of the workshop's running resources via email post-workshop and must bring their own foam roller and yoga mat. The purpose of the workshop is to create a mind/body/spirit connection with running using yoga as a conduit and breathing as the primary guiding element so that running becomes a lifelong, easy, enjoyable, rhythmic practice, with yoga at it's core. Suitable for run/walkers, hikers, cyclists, snowboarders and skiers.
