Heart Opening Yoga with Hannah
(Presented by VCU HR and VCU Recreational Sports)

By opening the wrists, collarbones, and upper lungs, we will bring new energized fluids into the joints, allowing the body to work towards balance. We will take our time during the movements to allow space for the strong, emotional body to release what it needs safely.
