In Person Yoga: 10:00-11:00 am
Join Halen at the Hold Your Horses Farm for Yoga and community connection. Halen will greet you in the client waiting room with hot tea, offer a moment of mindfulness, and then guide everyone in a yoga session (indoor when cold and inclement weather). This is a fun, easy going, and relaxed yoga class that is held on the beautiful HYH farmland and will conclude with the option to connect with the land and/or animals before departing. Be sure to wear warm layers and closed toe shoes that can get dirty. Weather and seasonal adjustments to location and supporting activities will be made as needed. Most suitable for ages 10 years old and up!
Class is $20 per person, or $30 per family.
About Halen: As an athlete most of her life, Halen initially came to yoga as a gentler way to stay in shape. She soon realized that yoga also helped ease her busy mind, made her a more aware and present person, and did wonders to support her mental health. In 2010, Halen completed her 200 hour training with Frog Lotus International in Guatemala and has been traveling with yoga ever since. She has taught yoga in Switzerland, Alaska, California, Minnesota, and Vermont. Halen currently teaches for Mind Body Solutions, and has additional training in restorative, adaptive, and yin yoga. She has also been a children’s yoga instructor since 2011, and works as a child therapist. Halen approaches yoga as a way to balance strength and flexibility in the body, to cultivate a more peaceful mind, and to encourage curiosity and self-compassion. Her hope is to teach yoga in a mindful, playful, and accessible way to help students awaken the mind-body connection and to support both their physical and mental health.
Halen has been volunteering at Hold Your Horses since July 2024, and has fallen in love with the peace that simply stepping onto the farmland brings her. She is extremely excited to be able to offer yoga at the farm, and hopes to see you at a yoga class and/or as a fellow volunteer during barn chores!
