What to Expect in a Yoga class
A Hatha Yoga class addresses all aspects of the individual: the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.
We begin a class with centering and bringing the focus to the breath. When your breath deepens, your mind becomes calmer.
From here we move into the Asana (poses and movements) portion of the class, geared to your current level of strength, flexibility and mobility.
To give your body, mind and spirit a chance to further relax and assimilate the benefits of the yoga poses we include a guided deep relaxation.
Towards the end of the class we practice some of the specific breathing techniques or pranayama and close the class with a few minutes of meditation and peace chants.
