Our first class in the series is everyone’s favorite: gym! This isn’t the gym class where you get picked last- it’s one where everyone has a calming and enjoyable experience. Invoke Studio’s Megan Zirkelbach will lead the class through a virtual yoga class. No previous yoga experience necessary. Set up your relaxing space at home and be guided by Megan. This class be taught over Zoom.

ABOUT THE TEACHER

Megan began her yoga journey after having her daughter in 2006. She quickly realized yoga was more than just a physical exercise. It began to help her with the stress and anxiety of life, when she stepped off the mat she had inner peace that she couldn't explain. Megan has been practicing everyday since. During a meditation workshop she heard the instructor say "once you see, you'll eventually know" and from that point on Megan knew teaching yoga would be a part of her path. She received her 200 hrs YTT in April of 2014 at Sanctuary, Mind, Body, and Spirit under Tom and Daphne Larkin in Nashville, Tn. Her practice and teaching is a mix of vinyasa flow and the power of ashtanga yoga. She loves handstands and inversions but appreciates the beauty and fundamentals of all poses that are at the core of building strength and balance.

NPR Life Kit

Each class is based on episode's of NPR's Life Kit series which was created to help everyone develop tools to help you get it together.

Listen to the episode now about how every movement counts when it comes to starting to exercise.
