Description
Gentle Yoga is a slower paced practice with less intense positions, and includes extended time for meditation, yogic breath work and relaxation. A gentle class usually includes more warm up movements and the yoga postures are often held for longer times. A slower and gentler practice of yoga allows a person to move at a comfortable pace, does not push them to do anything that may make them uncomfortable, and creates less strain on their muscles and joints. A gentler style of yoga calms the nervous system so that the parasympathetic nervous system can be engaged. This encourages better digestion, a decrease in stress levels, and an enhanced ability to relax and heal. Students will focus on stretching and breathing in the hopes of reaching a state of rejuvenation. Ages 16+, all levels welcome, no experience necessary.

About Heather: Heather is a busy mom and wife who finds solitude in yoga. She fell in love with the way movement made her body feel. Like most, she had no idea how the breath and movement of yoga, could completely transform the body and the spirt. Naturally her hope is to have all her students experience this reality. Heather is known for her authentic, non-judgmental teaching style. She encourages growth of the physical and spiritual self. She believes yoga is the relationship that is built between the body, the mind and the breath. She promotes self love and body positivity. Heather strongly believes all bodies are yoga bodies. Her hope is that you step off the mat feeling refreshed, nourished and balanced. Expect to move, explore, sweat and smile.
