Wednesday evenings
PRENATAL YOGA
5:30-6:45
with Diane Butera
Inside you is an innate wisdom that intuitively understands about the very natural process of birth. Yoga can help you reconnect with this wisdom, guiding you through a class specifically designed for the journey of pregnancy. Linking yoga postures with the breath will lead you to new discoveries, bringing awareness to the mind, body and spirit, and also the spirit of your baby. The program, conducted in a calm, peaceful environment will help strengthen the uterus and pelvic muscles, improve circulation, aid in digestion, exercise the spine and increase overall comfort. Yoga can also alleviate many of the discomforts of pregnancy such as nausea, constipation, varicose veins, swelling, back pain and sciatica. A safe, open community allows you to freely discuss any issues, from discomforts and concerns, to the wonderful new changes your body and baby are experiencing.

Meeting Sunday mornings at WOW Hall and Tuesday evenings at the Vet's Club. Coalessence is an informal dance community reveling in free-form self- expressive movement. We provide a non judgmental space where you can explore dance solo, dance with another and dance in community. A wide range of music from local to global is arranged to inspire an ecstatic journey leading through many rhythmic and cultural landscapes.
We dance our joy, we dance our connections. We dance to the profound unknown, bringing our hearts to the surface through movement and stillness. We come to dance away our fears, our inhibitions, our sorrows ....peeling away the layers in search of our true shining selves. Please join us in this family friendly event. Our circle is warm and open and we welcome people with all levels of experience.
Coalessence is currently led by four facilitators, Grace, Amanda, Paul, and Zan, who take turns each week providing the music and holding space. We come from diverse backgrounds, united by our passion for dance, and a strong vision and commitment to grow the ecstatic dance community in Eugene. We look forward to dancing with you.

Our celebration service includes lots of joyous music with outstanding vocalists, spiritual deepening, and an inspiring message. During this service, we offer childcare for infants and toddlers, as well as a wonderful youth program for elementary and middle school children.
We understand the Infinite, or God, to be an intelligence and presence that lives in and through all of creation, including humanity. This means we consider everyone to be a sacred being, worthy of love and respect, and every place to be holy ground, deserving of our care and stewardship.
We consider Spirituality to be a way of life, not just something we do on Sundays, so we offer tools and lessons that bring our practices into our homes, our workplaces, our daily lives.
