Healing through Mindful Movement and Meditation

This gentle, nurturing yoga series is created for individuals with a history of cancer and for the caregivers and loved ones who support them. Together, we’ll create a compassionate space to reconnect with the body, ease tension, rebuild strength and balance, and cultivate resilience. Through accessible movement, mindful breathwork, and guided meditation, participants are invited to move at their own pace while fostering community, hope, and renewed confidence.

No prior yoga experience is required. Individuals with a history of cancer are warmly welcome, and caregivers are equally encouraged to attend—whether alongside their loved one or on their own.

Research shows that gentle yoga and meditation can help reduce common cancer-related side effects such as fatigue, anxiety, and low mood while supporting overall well-being. This series is led by Denise Spector, a yoga instructor, who is also an oncology nurse practitioner and integrative health practitioner, with a deep commitment to supporting cancer survivors in their healing journey.

Led by Antonia Beh, who brings decades of experience as a dancer, choreographer, and educator in the Triangle, this class offers a thoughtful and accessible approach to movement that welcomes dancers of all backgrounds.

Rooted in creative dance, this class offers an inviting approach to exploring modern dance techniques. Whether you’re brand new to dance or returning after time away, you’ll be guided into movement with curiosity, playfulness, and support.

We’ll build expressive dance phrases from fundamental movement principles—breath, flow, suspension, and release—starting with simple standing exercises to ground awareness in the body. From there, we’ll gradually expand into more dynamic movement patterns, traveling through space and exploring rhythm, momentum, and connection to the room around you.

Along the way, you’ll be encouraged to listen inward, make choices that feel authentic, and discover your own unique movement language. The class weaves together structure and freedom, offering both clear guidance and space for personal expression.

Open to all levels of movers, this is a joyful opportunity to awaken creativity, build confidence, and reconnect with your body in motion. Come as you are—ready to explore, move, and release your inner dancer.

Qigong (pronounced chee gong, chee gung, or chee kung) is an ancient Chinese practice that blends mindful movement, breath, meditation, and sound to calm the mind, support the nervous system, and cultivate inner balance and harmony. Central to QiGong is Qi, the body’s vital life force. Through gentle movements, we cultivate, circulate, and harmonize Qi, supporting physical vitality, emotional balance, and a sense of ease throughout the body.

This 5-week series focuses on the energy of spring and the Wood element—associated with growth, renewal, and forward movement. Aligning with this seasonal energy invites greater harmony within the body and with the rhythms of nature. We’ll explore grounding, fluid flow, and resilient strength through movements that awaken the tendons, ligaments, and side body, supporting energetic balance and nervous system regulation. In QiGong, the liver is linked to the smooth flow of energy throughout the body and is closely connected to the tendons and connective tissues, so supporting this system can help release tension, improve flexibility, and restore a sense of ease and balance.

Classes are accessible to beginners and experienced practitioners alike, moving at a steady, unhurried pace with grounding and flowing sequences. Over five weeks, you’ll build familiarity, deepen awareness of your body’s energy, and reconnect with a steady sense of vitality, calm, and balance.

Held on Monday evenings, this series is a restorative way to resource yourself for the week ahead. Register for the series or join as a drop-in.
