Beginners and yogis of all body types learn three stages of kripalu yoga: proper alignment, longer holding time and meditation-in-motion. Students practice a unique vinyasa (sequence of yogic movements) to experience warmups, standing postures, yoga for accessing the body’s major energy centers, deep relaxation and more. So much more than muscles are moved as yogis practice to inspiring soundtracks, from Ode to Joy and Amazing Grace to Danny Boy and Taps.
PHYSICAL SCIENCES AND MATH R211 EINSTEIN’S RELATIVITY * OLLI program: OLLI Online Course location: UD OLLI Online (virtual) Wednesday 10:45 a.m. - noon Dates of class: 2/9/2022 - 4/27/2022 Instructor: Charles Carter Number of class sessions: 11 • Price for course: $50 Course format: Lecture, Video Based Technological requirements for optimal viewing: Audio & video with monitor/screen of 12” or more Why should E=mc2? Does this equation only apply to atomic bombs and nuclear reactions? Can a person travel to a distant star and return home within a lifetime? Is time travel possible? What is the total energy in the universe? Potential answers to such questions are found in Einstein’s special and general theories of relativity. This course explores the logic behind these theories, structured as a combination of lectures and relevant videos. A minimal amount of high school algebra is used.
This course will follow the life and career of Richard Feynman using his lectures, videos and documentaries. His genius enabled him to introduce us to fields of science and technology years before they became mainstream, with diagrams that simplified physics problems. He predicted the importance of nanotechnology while we were still figuring out the macro world, and his work on quantum electrodynamics earned him a Nobel prize. And yes, he played the bongos!
