This course is an accessible opportunity to start a new yoga practice. With the aid of props in the yoga studio at Common Ground Healing Arts students will be able to gently access foundational yoga poses and comfortably ease their way into this beginning yoga practice. Each session will begin with a brief explanation of one of the foundational components of the yoga practice including: pranayama (conscious breathing), alignment/anatomy, asana (physical poses), and meditation. Each session will also include a physical yoga practice that is intentionally welcoming for new students. Members may experience many benefits including increased physical strength, mental clarity, more restful sleep patterns, and decreased stress levels.
NOTE: Before participating in any exercise program participants should check with their doctors to ensure that there are no contraindications, special considerations, or limitations from a medical standpoint.
