Register for Classes and Workshops:
At The Farm:
No registration required for classes at the Farm. Just show up on Tuesday at 6:00PM!
Classes are held upstairs in the building closest to the street (the building with the glass garage door). Park in the horseshoe driveway between the street and the building, and enter the building from the parking area.
New students are always welcome.
Belchertown Classes:
Belchertown Parks and Recreation regularly hosts sessions of yoga. These classes tend to be fun and casual – for any session, about half of the students are returning with some experience, and about half are brand new, so it’s a nice mix of abilities. Each session usually consists of 8-12 classes, meeting approximately once each week. Yoga classes are held in public buildings (schools, Old Town Hall, Teen Center). Margaret brings materials for students.
Students pre-register for the ENTIRE class session through the rec dept. Sessions are priced to allow students to miss a yoga class and still beat the studio prices. Registration forms and payment are accepted at Belchertown Parks and Rec at 66 State Street, Belchertown (behind the Police Station). Forms and attached payment can be dropped into the mail slot there 24 hours each day.
Students should arrive to class 5 minutes early, and wear comfortable clothing. No shoes required (we practice yoga barefoot)!
NEW SESSIONS WILL START IN BELCHERTOWN ON May 2, 2012 - registration form available by email or in person at the Rec department.
