Instructor Anita Brown will lead the class through poses accompanied by soft music. Also accompanying the class, however, will be the words of Naomi Shihab Nye. Nye, the award-winning Palestinian-American poet, has written novels, essays, picture books and books of poetry. Including a literary figure's works in a bookstore-set yoga class seems quite fitting, after all.
The night's relaxation session will take place in Big Blue Marble's Community Room, so space is limited. Sign up for the class now and keep an eye out for Pop Up Yoga's upcoming events.
