The Studio features Hatha classes, Vinyasa classes, Restorative Yoga, and Self-Care Yoga that offer benefits to practitioners ranging from the physical to the spiritual. Hatha and Vinyasa yoga involve body and breathing exercises. Yoga brings health to the practitioner that is truly radiant, manifested through increased flexibility, strength, stamina, and improved circulation of blood and other vital fluids. Less visible, but equally important, is that students also experience improvement in the functioning of organs and glands.

Yoga leads to better, overall, physiological functioning throughout the body. It helps strengthen one's immune system and, really, just about every aspect of one's physical health. As to its psychological benefits, the practice of yoga can help one become more mentally and emotionally centered. It leaves the practitioner feeling emotionally grounded and, at the same time, it helps to release suppressed tension and emotion that can creates illness and dysfunction in body and mind.
On a more spiritual level, the practice of yoga stimulates acceptance of our inner connections with the environment, other people in close proximity and other people everywhere. In that way, it helps practitioners become more compassionate, and, perhaps, more ethical. With newfound recognition that the lives of all people are intertwined, the thought of trying to steal from another or otherwise harm another becomes unacceptable. Such an action would be effectively steal from or harm the practitioner him/herself. Simply put, one's heart, one's core, expands with the realization and experience of how we are all interconnected spiritually. |
