Camille Rose, the driving force behind the classes, shared her enthusiasm for the program. "I’m always excited to bring the practice of yoga to the students who show up each and every Wednesday during our spring and fall classes," she stated. "Each person moving with their own intention and breath on the mat sharing space for each other is a beautiful movement."

This spring, the series embraced a special "Mommy and Me" yoga session in celebration of Mother's Day, allowing parents and children to share the practice together. As the warmer months give way, participants are already looking forward to the series' return in the fall.

Rose emphasizes an inclusive teaching style, ensuring that her classes cater to all levels, from novice to experienced yogis. "I teach each class for the beginner yogi and also for the seasoned yogi, there is something for everyone! Our goal is to always have fun on the mat," she explained.

Beyond the physical postures, Rose highlights the profound benefits of yoga, noting its ability to "regulate the nervous system, improve mobility & concentration," and positively impact physical health by "increasing blood flow and lowering blood pressure."

Looking ahead, Camille is already deep in planning for the fall session, which will continue to delve into the understanding of postures and their applicability to daily life. "If a pose is challenging, how does a person navigate being in the posture, the same would go for any challenge in life," Rose mused, connecting the physical practice to broader life lessons. "My goal is to get our students to connect the dots to yoga and life and most importantly to have fun while learning! I look forward to seeing our classes grow this fall.”

The MMDC anticipates announcing the fall series schedule in the coming months, promising more opportunities for the community to engage in mindful movement under Camille Rose's expert guidance.
