Larchmont Public Library to Offer Saturday Morning Yoga
Beginning Saturday, July 26, at 9:00am, and continuing for four consecutive Saturday mornings (July 26 and August 2, 9 & 16), as part of the programming offered this summer, the library is offering free Yoga sessions led by Yoga Instructor, Damien Germino.
Yoga is a particularly good exercise regimen for seniors as Yoga is very low impact and can be practiced to enhance overall health, to improve balance, to heal and prevent injuries, to strengthen muscles and to open the body for meditation.
Damien Germino has been practicing yoga for five years. He researched Psychology with Dr. Friedenberg at Manhattan College and Dr. Kan at Villanova University. He works full-time at The College of New Rochelle in Student Services. He is now pursuing his second Masters in Public Administration. During the summers he teaches Cognitive Psychology for Johns Hopkins University Center for Talented Youth. He’s active in the community from the Empty-hand Zen Center to attending the Quaker Meeting in Scarsdale. He taught workshops on Buddha’s Brain with his Uncle, Joseph Izzo, at the Friend’s Religion & Psychology Conference.
