DESCRIPTIONS, COSTS, CALENDAR, & PROTOCOL
At WEN Barn and Gardens, you can practice yoga in
deep connection to the natural world.
Our simple barn has no chic
decor and no external climate control. On most
days, the barn doors and windows are left open, so please dress accordingly. We adjust to nature
more than it to us.
Thousands of years ago Indian yogis practiced in
caves and fields to draw from nature's wisdom in tandem with understanding
the human body's and mind's patterns. We aim to honor that tradition.
WEN Yoga classes include a brief talk, centering practices, and deep vinyasa (yoga flow)-based teachings for any level of practitioner. At some level, we are all beginners. Our teachings are precise for physical alignment and energetic efficiency, but in the Krishnamacarya-Desikachar-Scaravelli spirit are also customized to address individual needs.
Each class centers upon how a facet of ecology, earth
wisdom, or what may be happening in nature on any given day can be
integrated into a full way of living yoga.

CLASS PROTOCOL
Please be on time.
Out of respect for all practitioners, classes begin promptly and end promptly as scheduled. For your first class at WEN Barn and Gardens,
we encourage you to be familiar with the directions here to assure
an early arrival at least fifteen minutes before class begins. This
early arrival will allow you sufficient time to register, find a spot, and
to settle.
Park & carpool.
You may park in the indicated spots in front of the
barn or along the side of the house side of the road. To save energy,
carpool with someone.
Relax & w
For the half hour following class, we encourage you
to relax near our one-acre pond, to stroll to the spillway waterfall where
the stream ribbons into the woods, or to wander to our back meadows where
we're constructing future WEN Teaching Gardens. Doing so can
help you integrate more fully your practice in deep connection with the
natural world.
