Gentle Yoga (Gentle Yoga)

About the class: This class is designed to help students move slowly through a series of postures with extra consideration for the joints. Students will be offered the added stability of props and given modifications when necessary. Gentle Yoga can be very introspective and we will spend time focusing on the breath and exploring different relaxation techniques. This is a great class for those recovering from an injury, working with arthritis, beginners or those who wish to slow down and really explore each pose. Students will learn balance, gain flexibility and strength, and leave feeling calm and centered. About the teacher: Mira Casile has been practicing yoga for 10 years and teaching for 7 years.
