JEWISH COMMUNITY CENTER TAKES ‘DOWNWARD FACING DOG’ LITERALLY WITH CANINE YOGA CLASS
July 13 Event Helps Pups and Their Parents to Learn to Stretch and Synchronize Together
The Jewish Community Center of Dallas (The J) goes to the
dogs with the introduction of a Dog Yoga class to be held on Sunday,
July 13 from 2 to 3:15 p.m. at 7900 Northaven Rd. in Dallas. The class
is free, however, reservations are required by calling (214) 239-7137or
e-mailing tarends@jccdallas.org.
Inspired by the book Doga: Yoga for Dogs and led by
two professional yoga instructors, Dog Yoga is an opportunity for
humans to interact with their furry friends while tapping into the
animal’s natural yoga tendencies including the ability to “be in the
moment” and, of course, inherent flexibility. A dog behaviorist will
also be in attendance to assist attendees in connecting with their pet
via mind, body and spirit.
“The idea of Dog Yoga isn’t a class full of people and
pets in the same poses at the same time,” says Terri Arends The J’s
Group Fitness director. “It’s more about teaching people how to connect
with their dog and to further strengthen the bond and inner peace pet
owners share with their four legged friends.”
Yoga mats and towels will be provided. All dogs must be brought to the class on a leash. Dog Yoga is open to all breeds;
however, all attending dogs must be non-aggressive and well socialized.
In order to ensure maximum connection between human and pet, attendees
may only bring one dog each to the class. Learn more about Dog Yoga here.
