The yoga classes are suitable for everyone, from the absolute beginner to a more seasoned practitioner, and will consist of a series of strengthening, toning, relaxing breath, and meditation exercises. On Wednesdays from April 13 to June 29 for 12 weeks the township will offer the following sessions: Beginner Mat Yoga from 9 to 10 a.m. and Gentle Mat Yoga from 10:15 to 11:15 a.m. On Thursdays, three yoga classes are offered.
