This class is a great introduction to yoga for anyone who has never tried, or has very little experience with, it. You will learn:
- an overview of what yoga is and isn’t
- an explanation of some common yoga terms
- the typical progression of a yoga practice and common safety considerations
You will be guided through several basic yoga poses of different types (e.g., seated, standing, lying down) AND you’ll cap it off by gently moving into experiencing the powerful but uncomplicated Warrior I pose (shown above).
A custom yoga class will be developed based on the background, goals and preferences you (and anyone accompanying you) indicate on your Student Intake Form, suitable to your level and experience.
This Introductory level class is a blend (about half and half) of learning general yoga terms, concepts, prop use, etc, and of practical yoga practice. If you prefer a class which is mainly practice, choose the Beginner level.
