The Samarya Center for Human Kindness

Our method of teaching from a partnership, non-hierarchical perspective comes from Integrated Movement Therapy (IMT), a yoga-based therapy modality created by Molly Lannon Kenny.  IMT is centered in each person's inherent wholeness.  For more info about IMT, please see the tab above.

LoveYourBrain

For many years we have offered free LoveYourBrain series classes at Unfold.  Many of our teachers are LoveYourBrain-certified to teach TBI-friendly classes.  Now, during COVID, LoveYourBrain has taken their programming into an online format, and several Unfold teachers continue to teach this programming. 

We also continue to offer TBI-friendly programming for anyone who has sustained a traumatic brain injury.  These classes are denoted by an *asterisk in our schedule and are appropriate for those with TBI's as well as all other people.

Living Yoga

We have a great deal of overlap with Living Yoga in our teachers, and are grateful for their constant commitment to social equity and delivery of yoga to trauma-impacted communities, especially correctional facilities and addiction recovery centers.  We support them, as we are able, in donation of studio space, fundraisers and collaboration.

Central City Concern

Old Town Recovery Center

We have been providing volunteer yoga teaching at the Old Town Recovery Center since 2012.  We are inspired by the work of resident psychologist, Dr. Phil Shapiro, and his  "Healing Power" books that utilize a non-dogmatic, spiritual approach to pain management.  We utilize his 100 healing qualities for our "dharma talk" topics of the month at Unfold.
