Wellness Classes at Maryland Hall

Some are surprised to discover we offer wellness classes at an arts center. Here, we practice the Art of Wellness with health and fitness classes aligned to creativity. Take pilates, barre, yoga (including the only place in Annapolis for YogAlign) and Tai Chi in a welcoming studio space. Currently offering virtual classes, you can enjoy live and "anytime" online instruction from local teachers in your living room. 

 
 
 

What I am impressed by most is the sense of community within Maryland Hall. It’s more than teacher – Student or Teacher – Teacher relationships. Being part of Maryland Hall is being part of a creative sharing community. It doesn’t end when the class ends. The people, smiles, creativity, and experiences become a part of me.

    This workshop will help you understand that by using your inner strength – your intuitions – your courage, and your imagination, you can find your deep inner strength to help you heal. We will be using ART you create as your muse- your outlet- your expression. Quick projects to help you learn/experience how to "let it out" – let it go and have a paper representation of it! It's fun, and no art background is needed. Please don't feel like you need to be "an artist" – you don't! It's free form, and no experience in art, painting or drawing is required or needed. All you need is yourself and an open mind.For more questions: botanicalbb3@gmail.com
