Beyond the Shape: Finding your True Alignment
Sat Jan 31 at 2pm
Yoga means union, and also union of opposites...effort and ease, strength and flexibility. To find balance in the body, we need both movement and stillness. Flow +Chill is a combination class, starting with a slower paced vinyasa, followed by restorative poses (supported by props). We will flow for half of class to warm the body up, then take the second part of class to stretch, release tension and dive into a deeper state of chill.
Absolutely! Yoga isn't about being able to touch your toes, it's about connecting with your body and finding your own edge. It's like learning to play an instrument, you start with the basics and work your way up. And who knows, with practice you might even surprise yourself and become a human pretzel.
Yoga can help improve focus and concentration like a mental workout for your brain. It can help reduce stress and anxiety, which can interfere with focus. Plus, the focus on mindfulness can help you stay present and focused.
Yoga for children is like a superhero training camp, only without the spandex and capes (unless you're into that sort of thing). It can help improve focus, concentration, and coordination, while also promoting self-esteem and body awareness. Plus, it's a great way to tire them out before bedtime.
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 helps with sleep quality and relaxation like a warm blanket, wrapping you in a cocoon of calm. It can help you learn to quiet the mind, reduce tension in the body, and promote deep relaxation. Plus, it's a lot more comfortable than sleeping with a blanket on your head.
