This week, you’ll meet our newest NM teacher, Lydia Zamorano, and try two of her new yoga classes: Melty Hips and Feel Better. Lydia’s classes, as well as the rest of this week’s schedule, are designed to better connect you with your body. Focusing on the feeling of your movements will help you become more mindful of how you move in your daily activities. This week is all about exploring a greater sense of mindfulness and presence — both on and off the mat.
