Gentle Yoga with Charity

Gentle Yoga with Charity Deeply finding roots from the earth to deeply bond with space. Building balance from the earth up, awareness from the inside out.

Charity Herman McClory took her first group yoga classes while traveling. Her aunt talked her into coming along to a yoga class on Kauai, HI. What better place to practice and play? For several weeks she enjoyed regular yoga and felt all the better for it. Limited flexibility, lots of regular sitting and driving, and an on-the-go personality, left her in need of relaxation, self-care and gentle movement. After returning home a good friend introduced her to outdoor community classes at Schenley Plaza and then to Yoga on the Square. There she found hospitality, community, and a restorative philosophy of teaching that meets you where you are at. Charity began to build a foundation for a personal yoga practice leading her to the EmbodiYoga 200 Hour Immersive Yoga Study and Teacher Training and has since completed the 500 Hour training and RYT 500 with Yoga Alliance. With gratitude to many teachers, she blends writing, prayer, and stillness into her practice and believes that yoga is for everyone. Charity’s special interest in yoga service is supporting the body for rejuvenation. She has worked in program and partnership development with public libraries and as a volunteer coordinator at a local hospice.

What does it feel like to study movement and embodied anatomy with Bonnie?

One of the best ways to understand her approach is simply to experience a class.

To offer a glimpse into Bonnie’s teaching, we’re sharing two free classes from previous series:

✨ Cultivating Breath – Illuminating Mind
✨ Balancing the Two Sides of the Body: Embodying Integral Pelvic, Spinal, and Brain Connections

Each class offers a window into Bonnie’s approach — exploring anatomy, movement, and perception as living processes within the body.

If this way of learning resonates with you, we invite you to join Bonnie for her upcoming live online series:

The Art of Balance: A Somatic Approach to Dynamic Mobility

Classes begin April 9.

✨ Pay From The Heart scholarships and flexible payment plans are available so everyone who feels called to this work can participate.
