“Yoga isn’t about getting great arms,” says Sun & Moon director Annie Moyer. “It’s about connectedness and finding the common ground that runs beneath us all.” (Although few would deny that great arms are a bonus.) The Cherrydale studio offers some 60 Hatha-style classes per week, with options for just about everyone—from postpartum moms with babies to teens and lifelong yogis.
Need a bit more peace in your life? Sun & Moon also hosts special events and discussions designed to further one’s understanding of yoga—because, as Moyer explains, the benefits of this ancient art extend far beyond physical fitness. “It’s really a vehicle for self-awareness, long-term well-being, greater capacity for human connection and mindful engagement in the world around you. It’s not exercise,” she says, “you just happen to get great exercise while you’re doing it.”
