Yoga and Meditation Classes

Meditation Schedule

The type of meditation we practice involves simple — but not always easy! — breath and awareness exercises that bring our attention to the present moment. We learn to relax and rejuvenate our bodies, look inward with more insight and wisdom, and cultivate greater compassion for ourselves and others.

Yoga Schedule

MindfulNYU offers FREE yoga classes Monday through Saturday, September through December and late January through May. These classes are taught by certified, dynamic, and highly experienced teachers from all over the city. Classes focus not just on physical fitness and health but also on connecting to our center and finding peace through meditation-in-movement.

Meditation Room

MindfulNYU also offers a meditation room, open during our office hours, for individual practice (quiet, seated, upright meditation). Come by GCASL 486 for quiet, peace, and calm right here on campus.

The meditation room is available for silent, individual 20 minute meditation. Please stop by the front desk to sign up for a 20 min slot. There is no eating or drinking in the space.
