One of the most popular yoga myths is the belief that you need to be flexible before ever setting foot on a mat. The truth is, flexibility isn’t a prerequisite. In fact, a regular yoga practice will actually help you become more flexible over time. Increased flexibility can help decrease the risk of injuries, create a better range of motion of joints, lengthen muscles, improve balance and overall health!
Flexibility + mobility is a fun, judgment-free space, suitable for all levels. In this class we will work on different muscle groups and joints each week, using yoga, mobility, and stability techniques as well as Myofascial release to improve range of motion and flexibility.
Props such as straps, bolsters, blocks, and tennis balls will be used to target specific areas and help ease your body into the poses and stretches. Modifications and options will be offered throughout the class.

FAQ
The etiquette for a yoga class is pretty simple - just be respectful of your fellow yogis, don't hog the space, and try not to fart during savasana. Oh, and remember to turn off your phone - nobody wants to hear your latest TikTok during their downward dog.
Yoga helps with sleep like a lullaby, gently lulling you into a peaceful slumber. It can help calm the mind, reduce stress, and increase relaxation, all of which can improve sleep quality. Plus, it's a lot more effective than counting sheep.
Hatha and Vinyasa yoga are like two sides of the same coin - they both incorporate physical postures, but they have different approaches. Hatha yoga is slower and more static, focusing on holding each pose for longer periods of time, while Vinyasa yoga is more fluid and dynamic, with a focus on linking breath and movement.
To prepare for a yoga class, channel your inner yogi by wearing comfortable, stretchy clothes, bringing a yoga mat, and leaving your ego at the door. Remember to hydrate before and after class, and don't forget to silence your phone – nobody wants to hear your ringtone during Savasana.
Yoga is like a supportive friend for your recovery. It can help with addiction recovery by reducing stress, improving self-awareness, and teaching you to cope with difficult emotions. Plus, it's a lot more fun than sitting in a support group all day.
