Instructor Meaghan Johnson The Art of Yoga
with Meaghan Johnson of Queen Street Yoga

 

Experience art through yoga and meditation practice with the Art of Yoga, a 2-hour workshop led by Queen Street Yoga Director Meaghan Johnson. Held in the Kitchener-Waterloo Art Gallery's new programming space, participants will enjoy an afternoon of yoga tailored to shifting your perspective on art. No yoga or contemporary art experience required.

This two-hour workshop will begin with yoga and meditation practice; stretching, releasing stress and building the capacity to be present in our physical body. Once in a state of embodied awareness participants will explore the exhibitions through a self-guided walk.

 
Mats and props will be provided however participants are encouraged to bring their own if they have them. Maximum of 15 participants. Register by November 15th to confirm your spot.

"Through this experiment of sense and physical awareness, we may deepen our capacity to be present with ourselves, and also start to see art and art galleries as a place of refuge, learning and playgrounds of experience."  Meaghan Johnson
