🙋‍♀️Who could use a dose of stable, grounded strength to boost your body, mind, and heart?

Often in yoga, we emphasize the flexibility aspect and many people who haven’t tried yoga assume yoga is a stretch class. While flexibility is one of the important components of a well-rounded yoga practice, building external and internal stability is equally essential.

This week’s classes create a sense of stability, whether you need to connect to your inner confidence, prevent injuries, regain strength after having a baby, or just want to tone your body.
