CAPTIVA CIVIC ASSOCIATION Hosted by the Captiva Civic Association, instructor Yali Zawady will offer Yoga Flow and Gentle Yoga on Tuesdays and Thursdays at the Captiva Civic Center on Captiva.

The Captiva Civic Association will kick off the new year by offering two types of yoga.

Taking place on Tuesdays and Thursdays beginning on Jan. 7, Yoga Flow will be held from 9:15 to 10:15 a.m. and Gentle Yoga will be held from 10:45 to 11:45 a.m. at the Captiva Civic Center.

Running through April, the classes will be led by instructor Yali Zawady.

“We offer these through the season for anyone to come and take a yoga class, get a good workout in, maybe try a new workout they’ve never tried before, and to practice mindfulness,” acting CCA Director Kathryn Sisson said. “Yali will guide you through the classes, focusing on breathing and movement.”

A vinyasa flow practice, Yoga Flow links invigorating breath to mindful movement. Participants will explore inner-strength, postures and balance and integrate different wellness elements into the practice.

“It is recommended that you have some experience with yoga,” she said.

Gentle Yoga is a slower-paced class focused on stretching, breathing and relaxation. Participants will increase their flexibility, body awareness and stress relief. It compliments other physical activities.

“Gentle Yoga is good for any levels, whether you’ve never done yoga before or whether you’re experienced at it,” Sisson said.

The cost is $29 per class or $195 per month.

“You can either do single drop-in classes or you can get a month’s pass,” she said.

Complimentary mats will be available, but it is recommended that participants bring their own.

“And arrive about 15 minutes early for check-in,” Sisson said.

The community is encouraged to participate.

“Yoga is always a great exercise for your body, mind and soul,” she said. “Yali is a wonderful instructor, and she really will encourage you to practice that mindfulness.”
