Yoga has many benefits such as increasing flexibility, improving breathing, helping with balance and helping one to live a healthy and stress free lifestyle. Yoga is a floor based program.

A Yin Yang Yoga class blends two styles of yoga in one practice. It brings together the benefits of longer stretch poses with traditional hatha sequences to work on strength, flexibility and stamina. By balancing your Yin and Yang your energy flow will increase, giving you a peaceful balanced mind and body.

Restorative yoga focuses on relaxation of the mind and body. Bolsters, straps and other props will be used to support the body in various postures which allows one to move towards a state of balance.

Designed for community members age 55+, who are wishing to improve their balance and range of motion regardless of their current ability level. The program will be led by trained volunteers who ensure the program is run in a safe manner. Classes can be done seated or standing.
