Beginners Classes
In our Basics Class you will learn the fundamentals of safe yoga practice: postures, alignment, breathing techniques and relaxation. Our teachers will help you learn to modify postures to suit your individual needs. The pace of the class is slow and steady. We provide you with handouts to illustrate the poses so that you can practice at home and simple, fun homework assignments to help you integrate what you are learning into your daily life. You will have fun in our basics class and leave feeling relaxed and energized.
We run our basics classes in 8-week sessions. You can start anytime and come to any class. However, if you are brand new to yoga it is best to start with class #1 and take the next seven consecutive classes, if at all possible. Classes 1-8 will cover 18 basic yoga postures and 4 breathing techniques. This will give you a strong foundation from which to build a home practice and it will give you all the information you need to fully participate in our gentle and moderate classes. We recommend the full 8-week series to all beginners and folks who are brand new to yoga.
Our Basics classes are also a nice refresher for those returning to yoga after some time away from the practice or the seasoned practitioner who can always benefit by revisiting the fundamentals of yoga practice. Sometimes the best way to go deeper is to go back to the beginning!
