YOGA FOR EVERY BODY (AND FOR EVERYBODY!)
It’s been said before, and it’s undeniably true: “If you can breathe, you can do yoga.” More and more people everywhere are discovering that yoga really is for everybody and every body – which is why you may have noticed a wider variety of yoga classes showing up on the balance calendar in recent months!
The fundamentals of yoga are repeated in each class that I teach. Yoga is about honoring your body where it is at this moment. It is about safety and being in touch with your body. For newcomers, the first step is letting go of any preconceived notions of what you should look like when you practice yoga. It is not competitive, it is not painful and it is not about right and wrong.
We have developed our yoga classes around the idea that yoga, at its core, involves loving yourself exactly where you are. Balance has been expanding our class roster and will add new classes in the upcoming months. If you’re new to yoga or have any physical injuries, Gentle Yoga or Yoga & Meditation would be a good choice to start out. If you would like more active yoga, Open Level Vinyasa or Active Yoga would be a good fit. But all of our classes are open to all student levels – from beginners to longtime yoga students.
The benefits are everywhere. Yoga can help you attain greater movement and flexibility, help with stress and pain relief, and teach you how to listen to your body. It is truly an exercise that integrates body, mind and spirit.
Check out the new balance calendar for more information about current (and upcoming) yoga classes – you’re sure to find a class type and time that works for you. I hope you’ll come on in and give yoga a try!
