Details

These four simple poses will help reduce back, shoulder and neck pain, as well as reduce stress and improve your mood. I will demo and guide you through these poses and then end with guided meditation as you are resting on the floor/mat.

You will need a chair, two yoga blocks and a blanket ( to cover or to lay on) and pillow or two for underneath your head.

This is a free class to introduce you to a unique style of yoga that supports back health!

  • if you are pregnant in your first trimester or take immune suppressants this practice is not recommended.

If you have any medical conditions please let us know - high blood pressure, glaucoma, detached retina, hiatal hernia, hip or knee replacements as we can make adjustments in these poses for you.

Please RSVP. Once you do, a Zoom link will be sent

The following information will help you get the most out of your classes and clarify the role of a yoga teacher. Please read and understand that in participating you are in agreement with the following.

  1. All teachers are certified in their style of yoga and have completed professional training. Yoga is more than physical exercise. It is a transformational practice that integrates the body, mind and spirit. Yoga is a way of encountering and releasing physical, mental and emotional tensions to arrive at deeper levels of relaxation and awareness.
  2. All exercise programs involve a risk of injury. By choosing to participate in yoga classes, you voluntarily assume a certain risk of injury. The following will help you reduce your risk of injury:
    • Listen to and follow instructions carefully.
    • Breathe smoothly and continuously as you move and stretch.
    • Do not hold your breath or strain to attain any position.
    • Work gently, respecting your body’s abilities and limits.
    • Don’t perform postures and movements that are painful.
    • Ask me if you are unsure how to perform a certain movement.
    • Menstruating women should not practice inverted postures.
    • Pregnant women must consult their health care provider before enrolling in class.
  3. Awareness is fundamental to the practice of yoga. It is your responsibility as a student to monitor each activity and determine whether it is appropriate for you to participate. Although taught by a qualified teacher, you remain primarily responsible for your safety and wellbeing.
  4. As professionals, the teachers are responsible for competent yoga instruction and are not responsible for ensuring the safety of our students beyond providing competent instruction.
