Classes

Class size is limited to 10-12 students so that we can provide individualized attention. Yoga classes may be taken at the restorative, gentle, beginner or intermediate levels. 

We welcome new and existing moms to our Prenatal and Post-Partum classes.  No prior yoga experience is required.   We also offer classes  in Yamuna Body Rolling®, which is a unique system highly complimentary to practicing yoga.

Why do Yoga?

There are many health benefits to be gained by the consistent practice of yoga. As well as improving balance, strength and flexibility, students learn how to relax!

Stretching tight legs muscles and building abdominal strength can provide relief for lower back pain.   By learning how to move correctly you not only improve overall back health but  reduce the risk of future back strain.  In 2012 we will be adding workshops for students with scoliosis, so that they understand their curve pattern and how to practice yoga in a group class.

Prenatal yoga helps prepare expectant mothers for delivery and strengthens her for the demands of  labor and delivery, nursing, lifting  and carrying.  Gentle stretching and yoga alignment can greatly assist in making pregnancy more comfortable.  Post-partum yoga addresses the mother's body's post delivery or C-section.  Special attention needs to be given to strengthening the pelvic floor and abdominals in a safe and effective way.
