An invitation to be in a community practice of wellbeing, healing and joy. Get to know your fellow Groundfloor members beyond the desk through yoga and movement. 

Each month will have a different theme.

15-min Intentional Introductions & Caring Conversation 

1-hour: Vinyasa Yoga Flow & Meditation 

15-min: Community Sharing 

We welcome all of you. No movement or yoga experience required. This will hopefully feel like a nourishing space to simply just be.
