Viniyoga: Beginners yoga is designed to take
the stress out of yoga by laying the foundation for a strong and
confident yoga practice. Welcome to yoga! Beginners yoga is rich
with instruction and demonstration, is deliberately paced and will
help you learn the basics. This class welcomes all students who are
relatively new to yoga practice or simply wish to focus on the
basics.
The Viniyoga method of yoga is based on the
deep relationship between breath and movement, experiencing yoga
from the inside out and providing a sound approach to practicing
yoga postures (asana). The deep slow rhythmic breath that you will
master naturally creates a calm and focused mind and reduces stress
on a physiologic level. The Viniyoga teacher incorporates safe and
effective sequencing, and adaptation of poses to suit individual
needs. Viniyoga classes may at times include seated breath
awareness (pranayama), meditation and other yogic techniques.
