iRest Yoga

iRest is a variation of Yoga Nidra, a deep relaxation meditation, that teaches self-care for healing and resolving symptoms of trauma and PTSD. It is focused on healing at all levels: physical, psychological, and spiritual. iRest is well researched and proven to help with anxiety, depression, pain, and insomnia. It's an approved integrative adjunct treatment utilized by the US Department of Defense for wounded service members and those living with PTSD.
Class will include discussion, life skills suggestions, and a 40 minute meditation. Bring water and yourself - all other material will be supplied.

Starting in July 2024, this class will be offered every 3rd Sunday at The Pride Center at 1pm.

Instructor bio: Larry DiPietro is a 200hr registered yoga trainer and has been teaching virtually and in person since January 2021. His love for yoga began in 1992 when classes were offered by his local AIDS service organization. He began practicing hot yoga in 2003. Upon retiring to South Florida he continued his practice on the recommendation of his Physical Therapist who was treating him for diabetes related muscles loss. From late 2018 through the arrival of Covid he practiced hot yoga almost daily. During the time when studios were closed he earned his online certification from the Kaivalya School. In early 2022 he taught restorative hot yoga for Yoga Joint. In late 2022 he ventured into a partnership in a small boutique studio on Oakland Park Blvd. My certifications also include both MyVinyaysa School for 200hr Trauma-informed yoga and through Yoga4Change.
