Yoga Philosophy

Hatha Yoga promotes whole body fitness, whether you're a beginner or advanced practicioner. Yoga will slowly, gently and easily open up your body. You'll feel taller, breathe easier, and move about more comfortably.

Yoga is designed to work all your muscles; not just a few isolated major muscle groups. Many of the postures, such as the twists and inversions, stimulate particular internal organs or release energy from stress prone areas, including lower back and neck. Yoga is a technique ideally suited to prevent physical and mental illness and to protect the body generally, developing an inevitable sense of self-awareness and assurance.

Yoga is for everyone! Anyone can do it and benefit from being in touch with their body. To get an idea of what a typical class looks like, take a look at a photo gallery of an outdoor Yoga class from July 16th, 2002.
