Yoga

What is Yoga?

Yoga is much more than stretching and breathing and super flexible and strong people on Instagram. Yoga is about bringing steadiness and ease to the mind, body, and spirit through linking breath and movement. When we unroll our mats or take five minutes to sit still in silence, we make a powerful statement: “I’m taking this time to connect to my inner truth and wisdom so I can show up for myself, my loved ones, and the world.”

Through a daily practice of noticing the quality of our breath, body, and thoughts, we can change the world big and small ways. I’ll show you how.

Many students prefer learning yoga through private yoga lessons to quickly improve their alignment and gain a deeper understanding of the yoga practice with individualized instruction with an experienced teacher. Private yoga lessons are tailored to individual student needs and emphasize:

  • Breathing techniques
  • Internal awareness building

Private yoga lessons are available in-person or online.
