Family Circle is a space for families to gather and practice mindful movement and meditation. We welcome babies with parents through teenagers. We begin with free play which moves into group movement and concludes with a short meditation with or without breathwork. Teachers will create spaces for all ages. Children with special needs are welcome. Classes are free thanks to the generous support of the First Unitarian Church.
