The instructor is a trained yoga therapist (ICYT) and the focus of the classes is on long, slow stretching intended to open up joints and connective tissues, for deep relaxation, cultivating mindfulness, and increasing flexibility. The class is followed by the practice of Yoga Nidra often called the "meditative heart of yoga" which is an ancient yogic technique to learn the art of self-relaxation, traditionally used to balance the body and mind. Dress warmly and make sure to bring a blanket. New students are always welcome.
