WhenMondays 7:15pm to 8:45pm, every week

Where: Nyack Yoga Center AKA Nyack American Legion Hall

             85 Piermont Avenue, Nyack, NY 10960

Park:     See down below for a note about parking.

What:

  • We begin as needed by going over posture, breath, and Zen meditation methods, and with any questions at all about meditation. There are often short readings from respected Zen teachers (ancient and current) and teachers from other Buddhist traditions and non-Buddhist ones as well.

  • We then get settled into a comfortable, supported posture, paying careful attention that our bodies are aligned well. People sit in a variety of postures: in chairs, on cushions, or kneeling.

  • Once settled, we sit still in silence for 2 rounds of 20 minutes each with a short, silent 5-minute break in between, to walk or stretch.

  • We finish with time for sharing experiences or to ask questions.

  • Chairs, yoga mats, and yoga blankets are provided or feel free to bring your own cushions.

  • Please be 18 or older or accompanied by a guardian.

​

Parking: The American Legion Hall has only a few street parking spots directly in front, and you can park along Piermont ave by the park or in the other direction, and on either Cedar Hill Ave or Hudson Ave. Also, after 7pm you can park on Broadway for free and walk down just one block to the Legion Hall.
