Yoga For Everyone - Strength, Flexibility And Balance

(7-week session with Jyoti Shah)

This yoga is for everyone from beginners to seasoned practitioners, where the focus will be on building strength, flexibility and balance through the practice of classic Hatha yoga asanas.

In this practice, as we bring awareness towards breath and body alignment, we move into asanas to stretch and strengthen deep muscles of our body in order to bring stability and balance. We smoothly move from one asana to another, modifying them to adapt to the practitioner’s own level of comfort and bring ease as well as challenge in their practice.

As we refine the basic posture, use of yoga props is recommended. Our practice remains safe, interesting, and unique to each person.

No prior yoga experience required.
