Join Bluebird Sky Yoga instructor, Aida Ebrahimi as she fills in for Mana Takai for 3 sessions, for a gentle yoga class! These 3 sessions will be held on Wednesday.

Aida Ebrahimi (She/They) turned to the physical practice of yoga to find some relief from the busy and demanding work in the service industry. Soon, the daily Asana practice evolved into a holistic spiritual practice. Yoga allowed her to calm her chronic depression and anxiety, and it ignited a life-long process to work through trauma and rediscover her self-compassion. Aida is an artist and an educator and uses her creativity to invite playfulness into her yoga teachings. Aida‘s classes can be described as grounding, empowering, and meditative. Since 2021, she has been teaching mindfulness and yoga to children, adults, and older adults, inviting everyone from all backgrounds and abilities to find some rest, peace, and connection to their breath, body, and spirit.

Beginners welcome and mats are provided free of charge. Masks optional.
