Yoga has been taught for thousands of years, and is offered all over the world. This creates a pretty large variety of styles that are available with, at times, varied Yoga methodology. In traditional Hatha Yoga Asana, Yoga is not about flexibility! It's about the levels of peace Yoga practices can provide, to support life's challenges being soothed, and creating more joy. Asana, or Yoga poses, is just one of the eight limbs of Yoga. The physical flexibility that may or may not happen is more of a side effect than the goal. Using props as needed to avoid pushing or forcing and to support proper alignment, Iyengar Yoga is about ease. We try to release any accumulation of ego surrounding comparison, regarding the way poses look, while following the principles of unique alignment for each individual. We often utilize the Pranayama limb of Yoga, or Yogic breathing practices, to balance the body with nourishing oxygen, and use chant or mantra (like any singing) to stimulate the pituitary and pineal glands, which can help with the production of oxytocin and serotonin. All in holding space for a feel-good experience. Dhyana, or Yogic meditation, is offered as well. If you're new to Yoga, or have physical limitations, try FUNdamentals or a few one-on-one sessions to get comfortable!
