Welcome all beginners! We honor your
curiosity and desire to learn what yoga is about. You don't need
flexibility or strength to study yoga, just an open mind and a readiness
to learn something new.
With the goal of providing you a solid informational and experiential
foundation of yoga in a welcoming environment, we offer special
time and attention just for you!
Yoga
Basics
This 4 week introductory course is designed to help you explore
the fundamentals of yoga. You will create a foundation based
upon breathing techniques, primary yoga postures and universal
principles of alignment. Individual attention and hands-on
adjustments will give the necessary tools and confidence to
progress to our on-going classes. People of every fitness
level, from the tri-athlete to the sedentary individual can
participate. Each student is accepted and encouraged exactly
as they are. The physical, mental, emotional and health benefits
of yoga are unparalleled by any other type of Western exercise.
Learn ‘the basics' in a non-intimidating, fun and relaxed
atmosphere.
Please pre-register via email or phone.

If the Yoga Basics course doesn't fit into your schedule, our
All level or 1-2 level classes may be joined at anytime. Just drop-in and
inform the instructor you are attending class for the first time.
In any beginner class, take it easy and allow yourself the immense
freedom of being a beginner. Since yoga aims to regenerate health
& peace in the body and mind, competitive goal setting—which
may be useful in the rest of our lives—is counter-productive
here. Don't give thought to about how your body looks—in yoga,
it's more about how you feel. Plus, you are in a room full of friends
who are here for the same reason as you. So, aim on practicing with
breath awareness, and compassion toward yourself and those around
you. You will find that your body will become stronger, more supple,
healthier and more radiant.
There are lots of great books and web resources on yoga. Please
