Community Meditation at Village Yoga
Meditation is paying attention. On purpose. To the present moment. Without the filter of judgment, story, good/bad, right or wrong.
A simple concept, but not always easy to practice.
Which is why we created the Community Meditation class.
A guided experience for you to learn and practice different styles of meditation in a warm, welcoming, supportive group setting.
Community Meditation is for People Seeking —
Peace in a chaotic world
Tools to better manage stress & anxiety
A supportive community & sense of connection
Time-tested techniques to integrate into modern life

Act of Service
Community meditation is designed to create a ripple effect within our actual community. To foster a sense of presence, belonging, compassion and understanding as we move through our days in this place we call home.
Community meditation is offered as an act of service. You can come for free or make a donation when you sign up.
Donations collected this summer will be passed along to our community meditation partner this winter, the Kinderhook Fire Department.
and everyone is welcome in Community Meditation.
All ages, experiences, and abilities. Bring your friends, your kids, your parents, your people. We have chairs available and a variety of props, cushions, and blankets to help you find your most comfortable seat.
Let's sit together.
Bobbie Marchand
Mondays 12pm ET
A sweet, soulful Teacher, Bobbie encourages students to refine and integrate the many aspects of Yoga, both on and off the mat. Her richly textured classes are designed to serve and nurture the ‘whole person’. Sequences are anchored in breath; and through dynamic, alignment-inspired asana, practitioners are encouraged to harness both structure and support; strengthening the body/mind feedback loop, generating greater kinaesthetic awareness.
