We can start together!
For many years, I have been saying "I want to get into yoga", but I've never gotten around to it. It wasn't just that I simply didn't get around to it, but when I actually had the time, I chose other activities. No matter how much I knew the benefits of yoga, I always felt like other activities were more beneficial--like running, lifting weights, and dancing! Oh yeah!
For one, I love, love cardio. If my legs (and my heart) uh, (and my hips), uh (and every other part of me) would allow me, I would run & run on the treadmill. I felt like this was getting a lot done in the way of fitness. However, when you really study health and wellness, you learn that stretching your body & releasing mental stress have the most benefits out of any fitness activity.
The mind controls the body. If you are not re-centering your mind, your body can only take so much. Re-centering looks like taking deep breaths, relinquishing heavy thoughts, focusing on balancing your emotions, & getting enough rest; just to name a few things. Yoga does all of this!
Yoga involves breathwork, balancing the mind, and going to your place of peace. But, that's not all! Yoga also involves stretching the body and holding poses as you get more skilled in your yoga flow. I know that part sounds intimidating, but you can start with a beginner's yoga class. We are right here in the same space. Let's get started together!
Beginner's yoga classes involve breath work, stretching & gentle poses to help you re-center your mind, body, spirit, & emotions. Trust me, these classes are made for those of us who cannot stand on our heads--yet! Come go on this journey with me. Let's yoga together!
There are some general rules:
You must be open to everything that is for you. If you are manifesting big things, get ready to receive them all after this class!
Before you come, you must say "I am enough! I can do this!"
Dress comfortably so that your body can release.
