Yoga
|
Our Yoga classes are Hatha and Viniyoga based – we approach all of our yoga classes with trauma sensitivity and use choice to develop a positive experience for all. We incorporate asana (yoga poses), pranayama (breath practices) and meditation practices (relaxation and clarity for the mind). As well as mantra (repetition of words or chant), mudra (hand positions), and sound!
Our goal within our yoga teaching is to present it as authentically as we can, honouring yogic tradition, heritage and Indian culture. You can expect to hear Sanscrit words, terms and phrases, themes directly from the Yoga Sutras and the 8-limbs of yoga. |
