Yoga For Health & Relaxation
There are three Yoga for Health & Relaxation classes being conducted in 2012; these classes are suitable for beginners to progressive beginners. All classes have a strong emphasis on breath awareness and introspection in an environment of non-competitiveness.

All classes consist of a short relaxation, yoga postures (Asanas), deep relaxation (Yoga Nidra), breathing practices (Pranayama) and a short meditation. It is well documented that regular practice of Yoga may assist you with the following:
• improved flexibility;
• improved strength;
• improved energy levels;
• and decreased stress levels
However, most people will choose to do Yoga for Health & Relaxation because it helps put some balance and harmony back into their busy and/or stressful lives. Yoga is for everyone, regardless of age.

If you have any health issues, or you are not sure about the suitability of Yoga for you, please discuss this with me prior to enrolling in a class. I also work one-to-one, if this might suit your needs better.

Yoga For Spinal Health
This class is specifically designed to be suitable for beginners and for those wishing to improve their Core strength and stability.

Yoga for Spinal Health will focus on basic Yoga postures (Asanas) to improve spinal flexibility and core (abdominal/back) strengthening. Postures will be practiced lying on the mat as well as on the hands and knees, and in standing position. There will be an emphasis on breath awareness throughout the practices and stillness between the postures. Physiotherapy principles will also be incorporated, such as abdominal bracing and working within the limits of pain and stiffness. A deep relaxation (Yoga Nidra) and simple breath balancing practices (Pranayama), will also be included.

This class is suitable for those who are new to Yoga and wish to learn the basics before moving to a progressive class.
