Gentle Yoga, Soothing Breath

Service Description

A very slow-paced, supportive introduction to foundational poses with correct alignment. A variety of breathing techniques bestow a refreshing sense of relaxation. The practice of meditative stillness is supported by sequences emphasizing softness & tranquility. While yoga is free of hierarchies, it would be very appropriate for this particular class to be practiced by those who consider themselves 'beginners.' We work on balance and move up to initial points of physical resistance. However, most poses are held only briefly, there are no complex transitions, & building endurance isn't a primary goal. Experienced practitioners are free to practice more challenging variations. While breathwork is the foundation of all yoga classes, a larger proportion of this class is dedicated to intentional breathing exercises. This class feels both nurturing & inspiring, with a focus on coaxing tension out of the body & mind.
