What is yoga?

Yoga is an ancient practice for body, mind and spirit. The word “yoga” is derived from a Sanskrit word and is often translated to mean ‘To Yoke” or “Union.” To experience yoga is to experience ultimate relaxation, which occurs when the mind, body, spirit and soul are in balance.  

   Yoga is used to strengthen the body, increase flexibility in the body, quiet the mind, balance the emotions, uplift the spirit and deepen the connection to the soul. It is a powerful tool for self-discovery and transformation.

   Ultimately, yoga means different things to different people. It is a personal practice that is linked to many global cultures over the span of thousands of years. When you embrace your yoga practice, you embrace the fullness of yourself.

What can I expect during my yoga appointment?

A private yoga session is a wonderful introduction to yoga and is also a way to transform your current practice. The session will be personalized for you. You will be guided through pranayama (breathing) and physical postures (asanas) with complete focus on you and your needs.  Bolsters, blocks, blankets and other yoga props will be used to assist you as you embody each yoga posture. Crystal Singing Bowls and Tibetan Bowls enhance your experience as you drift into relaxation. A private session allows you to address your goals in a safe, supported and compassionate environment.
