GENTLE YOGA

Living Yoga's gentle yoga class focuses on an exploration of the elemental building blocks of the
 practice
and how to connect them through attention to breathing and proper alignment. Therapeutic
 in nature, you will learn techniques to help you gain flexibility, while immersing yourself in a relaxing
class that moves at a perfectly slower pace - allowing ample time to enjoy each pose. Expect lots
 of stretching and lingering in supported seated poses. Pranayama (breathing techniques), Meditation
 and relaxation techniques will be introduced. Perfect for stress relief and overall well being.


This class will help students overcome injuries, those new to yoga, will help pregnant women prepare
 their body and mind for labor and delivery will ease postnatal students back to their regular practice,
 and great for students of all levels who want a more gentle practice. Posture modifications will be
offered to suit your level, your injury and for each trimester of pregnancy. (All levels)

At Living Yoga we want to extend many opportunities for students to be able to fit our class times into
their schedule as well as offer students the opportunity to begin where they are on any particular day at
any Living Yoga class.  Therefore, all our classes (except for Led Primary Series classes) are for students
of all levels and students can attend any class without prior experience.  At any given class there may be
a student who is experiencing their first yoga class, a student who is returning after years away from the practice, and a student who practices 3 times per week.  The individuality of all students contributes to
the collective energy of each class, making each experience unique and special.  
If you are new to the practice and do not feel ready to come to an all levels class, we recommend
beginning with the Gentle Flow, Anusara-Inspired, or Mysore classes and join the other classes once you
feel comfortable doing so. 


**For pregnant students:  Although most health care professional will enthusiastically give the go ahead
 for beginning or continuing yoga during your pregnancy, we request that you speak with your health care professional prior to attending classes.  Also, it is required that  you talk to the teacher leading that particular class prior to attending class so they can evaluate where you are at in your current practice and/or discuss your pre-pregnancy fitness level.  If you have high blood pressure and/or complications
during your pregnancy, it may be suggested that you take a break from your practice or continue your practice with one-on-one private sessions. 
If you have any questions and/or would like guidance about where to begin your yoga practice, please
call us,
e-mail us or come by the studio.
