In-person folks need to be fully vaccinated and space limited. We mask entering class with option to remove during practice.
In-Person: Beginning 11/16 classes will meet at the NC Zendo. Please check with Kim for details about dropping in. As we continue to navigate collective safety during the covid pandemic, space is limited to 11 fully vaccinated students for ample physical distancing. We mask when entering and moving around with the option to remove masks* once we are on our mat for practice. Please do not come to class if you are not feeling well or have been around someone who is ill. Students are encouraged to bring their own yoga mat. Arrive 5-10 minutes early to get settled for class to start at 6pm. *If we experience a community surge in covid cases, Kim may request masking for the entirety of class (she has comfortable high filtration KF94 masks available for purchase at cost).
Livestream: If joining class online, please register below before 5pm to receive zoom link in time! When you register, I will send you the current week’s link along with details on navigating technology and creating a safer container for participants. Students log in 5-10 minutes before class to be sure I have time to admit you from the “waiting room”. After we have a brief welcome, you are free to turn off your video if that feels more comfortable (you can still see me but are not visible to other students during class).
Folks of all shapes, colors, orientations, and levels of experience are welcome! These gentle classes support our resilience, steadiness, and connection as we navigate times of immense change and challenges. Kim facilitates a playful and mindful exploration of movement and breath, sharing stress-relieving tools that are easily integrated off the yoga mat. Together we’ll stretch, balance, strengthen, and rest.

SCHOLARSHIP FUNDRAISER
To celebrate my birthday, I invite folks to contribute towards my scholarship fund which allows me to provide access to classes for folks with limited financial resources. Thanks for helping me realize my vision of making wild food and medicine knowledge available for all! I’m so grateful (yep, that’s young Planty Kim showing my excitement) to my generous friends who have given over the last three years (amounts ranging from $5-$500)! Thanks to you, I’ve been able to share scholarship support with many eager students! Just click the yellow donate button at the bottom of this page…
