Yoga is inherently a wellness practice. In yoga, we find that by practicing the right yoga for each different phase of an individual's life we can maintain a healthy body and mind. These classes in Wellness were designed to create a deeper knowledge of everyday yoga practices you can use to connect with your clients through normally occurring different stages of life that they may be dealing with.

 

The practice of Yoga will make you more aware of your own body—more conscious of its strengths, weaknesses and needs.  We emphasize ways to honor our innate physiology by practicing intelligently and with intention.

The Wisdom years allow for women's greatest freedom and often our greatest creativity and contributions to the world.  We will look at yoga practices beneficial to the aging body, focusing on strength and balance, mental clarity, and our spirit with purpose and path.

Common concerns aging including, diseases and disabilities that accompany aging and we will look at the practices of yoga that can keep us aging gracefully. We will learn about issues that arise in aging body and beneficial practices of many of them.  Regularly using the practices of yoga we come aware of our own bodies, more conscious of it's strength, weaknesses and needs.   We will  focus on practices that will strengthen and balance both physical and mental clarity.
