Mati Earth's beginner session is an embodied introduction to the practice: a drop-in class for anyone curious, or simply wanting to try a new way of moving. All bodies and backgrounds are welcome, and no experience is needed.

If you'd like to keep going, Mati Earth also offers a monthly membership for a regular practice.
