FELDENKRAIS® with LILY ZWYNS…
Lily Zwyns has been teaching Feldenkrais® for 20 years, and at Rutgers since 2001. Her
approach is centered in finding overall well-being through integration of mind, body, and spirit.
Lily also teaches private classes in mindfulness, meditation, healing, bone strengthening and
the use of pressure points.
BETTER BALANCE
Tuesdays, 12-1:30pm, 8 sessions, $240/$120 seniors 62+
Move into dynamic balance allowing patterns of imbalance to drop away.
We will find new options for stability with ease in vibrant sitting, standing,
and walking through explorations mostly in lying. Enjoy going “from the impossible to the possible, from the possible to easy, from easy to elegant,” quoting master teacher Moshe
Feldenkrais. Feldenkrais on Tuesdays will run on June 2, 9, 16, 23, 30 and July 14, 21, 28.
BETTER POSTURE
Thursdays, 12-1:30pm, 8 sessions, $240/$120 seniors 62+
Explore awareness through movement sequences to find new possibilities in lying, sitting,
standing, and walking with free shoulders, full breathing, and a flexible, vibrant spine. Become
more upright without effort. Feldenkrais classes on Thursdays will run on June 4, 11, 18,
25, July 2, July 16, July 23, and July 30.
TAI CHI with SIFU JIM GREEN…
Jim Green has been a Tai Chi practitioner for 35 years, and has taught for 25 years. Before
coming to Rutgers in 2006, he led Tai Chi classes at corporations like Goldman Sachs and
Prudential Securities. In addition to his two classes at Rutgers, Jim teaches at other churches,
health centers, and senior residence facilities, in addition to working with several private
students. Jim began his Tai Chi training in 1978 at the New York School of Tai Chi Chuan,
and also studied under master teacher Chen Wei Gun.
TAI CHI
Thursdays, 5:30-6:30pm, 8 sessions, $200/$100 seniors 62+
In this class, we will explore the Yang Family 10-move form, which was
created in China in 1999. This form is easy to learn, enjoyable to practice, and great for physical
health and peace of mind. The complete form takes eight minutes, and in this class we’ll learn
one move each class, with regular review of previous moves. A great class for beginners and
more experienced Tai Chi practitioners.
HEALTH & SPIRITUALITY with ANDREW STEHLIK…
CONTEMPLATION and MEDITATION TECHNIQUES for BUSY NEW YORKERS
Wednesdays, 5:30-6:15pm, 8 sessions, $40
Led by Andrew Stehlik, pastor of Rutgers Presbyterian Church. Restore, refresh, and renew in
this peaceful class. The sessions take place in a quiet, cozy setting ideal for contemplation.
Class size is very small to insure comfort and tranquility for all.
Please contact the Church office at 212-877-8227 ext.201 for additional information prior to
registering for this class.
ADULT YOGA with LYNN CRIMANDO...
Lynn Crimando, ERYT-500, Certified Viniyoga Therapist
A 25-year practitioner, Lynn has worked with a wide variety of conditions in corporate, studio
and private settings. “At its heart, yoga is about improving relationships–to our physical, mental
and emotional realities, our friends, families, and communities, even society-at-large. By offering
experiences that allow participants to tap into their own powers of self-study and healing, we
hope to create a meaningful experience for our Rutgers family,” she says.
ESSENTIAL YOGA FOR EVERY BODY
Mondays, 6pm
Combine traditional standing and floor postures with powerful breathing techniques and watch
what happens! We’ll explore:
• Healthy movement and alignment of the spine and joints via a set of essential basic postures
• Breath-based posture sequences that are safe for all body types, abilities, and ages.
• Adaptations that allow experienced practitioners, newcomers, and people who need to work
therapeutically with injury recovery or chronic conditions to progress at their own speed
BEFORE SIGNUP: Please consult your health care professional about any movement restrictions or
contraindications you need to follow. Every pose can either be modified or replaced with something
that will work better for you, as long as we know what those limitations are.
