In this 1‑hour class, we practice gentle stretching and Hatha yoga with mindful breathing, focusing on basic poses, clear alignment and slow, steady movement. The pace is beginner‑friendly, with options to go deeper if you already have some experience, and the goal is to leave you feeling calmer, lighter and more connected to your body. I didn’t grow up with a sports background, and my body is naturally quite stiff and not very coordinated – that’s exactly why yoga has been so helpful for me. It gave me a gentle way to start moving, and over time it’s helped me build flexibility, mobility and strength in a way that feels kind and sustainable. If you feel stiff, out of practice or nervous about joining a class, you’re very welcome here – this session is designed with beginners and “not‑so‑sporty” people in mind. **This class is for you if you:** ● Are new to yoga or returning after a break ● Want a simple movement routine without a gym/studio membership ● Prefer small, relaxed groups and a supportive atmosphere ● Are local or travelling and want to enjoy the waterfront with mindful exercise **About the instructor – Sophia Chu** Sophia is a 200‑hour certified yoga teacher and practicing landscape architect with experience in hospitality design, giving her a strong eye for space, atmosphere and how nature and cities shape how we feel. She is also a landscape architecture lecturer, used to guiding groups step by step and helping beginners feel at ease. Originally from Taiwan, she has lived abroad for over two decades, teaches fluently in English and Chinese, and welcomes people from all backgrounds. Since 2021 she has run the social Meetup group Wondering Wanderer and leads yoga sessions with FitFam Hong Kong, creating comfortable spaces for people to move, relax and connect. **Class fee** Free event – no payment required. ☆ This April class is offered as a community introduction session so you can try Wellness Wonder’s outdoor yoga, meet the group, and share feedback before we start regular paid classes later in the year. **What to bring / wear** ● Your own yoga mat ● Small towel (optional) ● Comfortable clothing you can move in Mats for newcomers (first come, first served): ● 1 soft foam mat (very beginner‑friendly) ● 1 thin rubber mat (more grip for those with some experience) ☆ Please message in advance if you need to borrow a mat. **Meeting point** Wood deck by the waterfront in Tamar Park. Please check the photo/map on this event page for the exact spot and arrive about 10 minutes early to settle in. If you have trouble finding us, contact Sophia via Meetup. **Weather & Cancellation** If rain or bad weather is forecast, we may move to a covered area nearby or reschedule. Updates will be posted on this event page 2–3 hours before class. **Memeber's Cancellation / RSVP** Out of respect for the host and other participants, please update your RSVP if you can’t attend.

He has spent decades helping investors understand how to structure deals through seller finance and notes, and how to think more like the bank instead of just the buyer. This will be a practical conversation around a part of real estate most people have heard about, but very few truly understand. If you’ve ever wanted to know how to create more opportunities in deals, generate cash flow in a different way, or understand how seller finance actually works in the real world, this is a night you want to be in the room for.

They know how to structure.They know how to create terms.They know how to see opportunities other people miss. This is the kind of conversation that can expand the way you think about real estate entirely.

We'll hike 3.4 miles on the Killdeer and Yellowlegs Trails - both out and back gravel trails. If we want more mileage we can repeat an out and back. Pace of around 3.5 mph, no one left behind and those who want to go faster sure can! As always optional lunch after. This is the second Metro Park in the lineup for me - with 21 to go (plus more are being added).

From birth, human beings are learning. Before we are able to hold concrete memories, we are being shaped and impacted by everything about our lives and situations. From the point that we become capable of cognizant thought and memory, our lives could be summed up as a series of our responses to our circumstances, whether for good or for ill. Dr. Joe Dispenza sees a deep need for human beings to live *on purpose*. Rather than just living life in reaction mode, he challenges people to live intentionally, to seek to change the negative that we have encountered and to pursue the positive through purposeful steps in a different and healthy direction. His study and work seek to demonstrate the changes that can be made from the inside out.
