Tuesday Art and Yoga, Episode 1

Come to the Great Room for a viewing of a yoga class inspired by a work of art!  Yoga mats will be provided, and everyone who attends will receive a Be Well goody bag!  Social distancing must be observed and facial coverings must be worn at all times!

Join us as we explore the possibilities of art and yoga at the Mount Holyoke College Art Museum. Intended to offer a relaxing and meditative experience, each video in the series begins with a short artwork introduction led by MHC students, followed by a yoga flow inspired by the art. The yoga sequences are designed to be accessible by all levels, and variations of the poses are offered throughout the videos.

Art and Yoga, Episode 1: Albert Bierstadt’s Hetch Hetchy Canyon
This class is perfect for beginners and those looking to include some simple, full-body movement in their day. We begin with gentle movement through the spine, then explore making space in our sun salutations, and finish with a basic balance pose, the tree pose (vrksasana), and a short savasana. Enjoy this simple, foundational class for the Art and Yoga series! Artwork introduction by A'mara Braynen '22, and yoga flow led by Anabelle Farnham.
