Yoga Movement is Medicine

I believe yoga is a whole body experience including the brain and physical body. Incorporating
breath and movement has an ability to bring an uninterrupted focus that is meditative, spiritual and emotional. I wholeheartedly advocate “feel good” yoga in that if a posture instructed doesn’t feel good, you should back away from that area and just stay in stillness wherever is most comfortable. I teach a variety of yoga classes that can target the general population. I also teach teenage specific classes, Yin yoga, Iyengar inspired but my favorite classes to teach are general public, first timer yoga classes.

The physical practice of yoga was developed to quiet the jitters and silence the anxious energy of an active, healthy moving body to prepare it for the stillness of a centered mind. The first two steps of the 8 Limbed Path of Yoga are the Yamas and The Niyamas - this is the yoga of the mind, or at least a good start to learning it. A physical movement practice is nothing without reigning in the chatter of the committee of the wandering mind. If meditation sounds curious to you, click below to learn more!
