The Friends of Ford’s Pond are presenting summer yoga and qigong at the park.

Every Saturday at 9:00 a.m. starting June 13th and continuing through August, instructor Aubree Gail will teach one-hour mindful yoga sessions on the lawn at Ford’s Pond. The sessions are designed to be inclusive, meditative and relaxing. No experience is necessary. These free sessions are sponsored by Friends of Ford’s Pond. Participants should bring a yoga mat or blanket.

Also this summer, Susie Shea will lead Sunset Qigong on Wednesday nights in June beginning at 8:00 p.m. Enjoy gentle, playful, flowing movement in the beauty of nature during the magic of sunset. Additional Wednesday sessions are planned through September, with start times adjusted for sunset. A donation of $5 to $10 is suggested. Qigong will take place standing on the lawn. Footwear is optional.
