This fun, three-hour class explores how Jedi insights on life from the Star Wars movies reflect wisdom teachings of real meditation and martial arts teachers, particularly Takuan Soho (a 16th century Buddhist monk) and Miyamoto Musashi (a 16th century samurai). Guided meditation and gentle movement suitable for most bodies and abilities will supplement the experience. If you like, do bring your (toy) lightsaber. Sith, bounty hunters and Stormtroopers looking to turn away from the Empire and join the Rebellion are welcome.
