Class Content

The style of Yoga

  

The Yoga Balance style is best described as a general hatha yoga class with multiple yoga style influences. 

We do not offer advanced classes.

Stretching and warm ups, breathing and relaxation are given equal standing to the traditional yoga postures and sequences. 

Classes are taught in a relaxed fluid manner, through pre-pose, pose and counter-pose. 

Students are encouraged to listen to their bodies and work within their own comfort levels at all times, making the classes ideal for people new to yoga as well as those with more experience. 

Emphasis is placed on the process, the journey and the rewards discovered along the way rather than the achievement of esoteric ideals. Yoga is seen as a means of bringing balance to the challenges of today's lifestyles.
