Beginning a yoga practice can be intimidating and overwhelming. Preconceived notions that yoga is only for the ultra-flexible, or those with superior strength and balance often keep people away. Yoga, however, is a non-competitive practice that helps build self-awareness and wellbeing for participants at all levels, and this beginners series is a great way to get started!
Designed for the student with little or no yoga experience, this 6 week course will acquaint participants with the fundamentals of basic yoga poses with an emphasis on alignment, breathing and awareness of body and mind that are necessary to build a safe and enduring practice.
Trish will be teaching in the spirit of the Iyengar method of yoga. Iyengar yoga focuses on developing correct body alignment, stamina, strength and flexibility using props such as blocks, straps and blankets to enable beginners and the inflexible to fully experience the benefits of each pose.
Join Trish on Saturday mornings at 11:00 am and start stretching! All ages and degrees of stiffness are welcome!
