Vernon plans Fitness Yoga class

VERNON — Vernon Township Recreation is offering a new yoga program at Maple Grange Park's Great Lawn.

Fitness Yoga combines aerobic and anaerobic movements, as well as elements from Hatha Yoga and traditional exercise, linked together in a flowing series of poses that create strength, flexibility, endurance and balance. Fitness Yoga is about exploring your limits physically and mentally, working all parts of your body equally to create balance that will compliment other activities of daily life. The class is offered in a peaceful, relaxed atmosphere to release stress and tension.

Classes are being held on Monday evenings beginning July 6 and will include 8 dates: July 6, 13, 20, 27 and Aug. 3, 10, 24, 31. There will be no class on Aug. 17.

The program is $25 for all 8 classes, and classes are 75 minutes long. Classes start at 6:30 p.m.

Bring water, a yoga mat or towel.
