At Living Yoga, it is our responsibility to provide a safe, nurturing environment for students to practice yoga & it is important that teachers have a high degree of integrity & maintain clear boundaries in their role of mentor, facilitator and helper, which can be achieved by consistent behavior as related to:
 

  • Living Yoga's Philosophy/Mission Statement:

    -- To provide a warm, welcoming, safe, nurturing environment for students to practice yoga.

    -- To enhance the health and well-being of the community by offering classes that: Integrate the mind-body connection; Increase core strength; Increase flexibility; Improve balance; and Reduce stress.

    -- To dedicate ourselves to living our Yoga by 'practicing on and off the mat'.

    -- To integrate the Living Yoga community with the community at large by: Offering a variety of classes, workshops and trainings; Offering Karma classes and/or to support local non-profits by donating to organizations that serve our local community as well as to communities beyond Concord as they are related to our relationships/memberships with organizations that: 1) Support the local community (Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce, Main Street Concord, Green Concord); 2) Are dedicated to fostering ecological consciousness (Green Yoga Association, Green Concord); 3) Support the yoga community in the United States (Yoga Alliance) and internationally (International Yoga Association).
