Free Yoga at the Park (at Mary Moore)
Sun Jun 7 at 9am
Our trainees have undergone extensive training in various yoga practices and are excited to share their knowledge with you and continue to stretch and grow their teaching muscles (so to speak!)
Each class will showcase a different yoga style such as Hatha, Vinyasa, Flow, Yin, Kundalini and more.
Participants will be given an anonymous feedback form to write down words of encouragement, what they have enjoyed about the class and/or things the new teachers could improve upon.
To know if you're doing a yoga pose correctly, channel your inner detective. Observe your alignment, check in with your breath, and listen to your body. If something feels off, make adjustments or ask your instructor for guidance. Remember, it's not about being perfect – it's about finding what works best for your body.
If you have an injury, think of yourself as a master chef adapting a recipe. You can modify yoga poses by using props like blocks or straps, or simply by adjusting your alignment. And remember, it's better to be safe than sorry – no one wants to end up with a yoga-induced injury that puts them out of commission for weeks.
Yoga is like a breath of fresh air for your respiratory system. It teaches you to breathe deeply and fully, which can improve lung capacity and function. Plus, the focus on breath control can help reduce symptoms of conditions like asthma and COPD.
Yoga is like a full-course meal, while stretching is like a quick snack. Yoga incorporates breathwork, meditation, and mindfulness, while stretching is more focused on the physical aspect of flexibility and range of motion.
Yoga helps with mental health like a therapist, only without the couch and notepad. It can help you learn to manage your thoughts and emotions, increase self-awareness, and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. Plus, it's a lot more fun than lying on a couch talking about your childhood.
