Yoga for Active Adults
Each month begins with learning basic alignment and the form of selected poses, breath work and meditation. As the class progresses, new poses are added, creating a flow using these poses and
synchronizing them with proper breathing. Each class utilizes warm-up poses to allow deeper stretching and cool down poses to release the muscles and allow for complete relaxation. We start a new flow of poses each month. Yoga will not only build strength, flexibility and relaxation, but heals the body and mind as well. No experience is necessary. The class is designed to provide options for all levels.
