Yoga is a dynamic and clearly structured practice, which connects the movement of the body with the flow of the breath.
Yoga promotes strength, flexibility, stamina and efficient postural alignment as well as stress release and well-being. Each class includes breath work, sun salutations, and a series of standing and seated poses, a mindful introduction to backbends and inversions and relaxation. The instructor demonstrates the poses, explains the technique and offers modifications as required, which makes the course ideal for those who wish to progress at their own pace.
