This gentle yoga class helps us to enjoy improved physical health and a sense of happiness in daily life. The purpose of Mindful Yoga is to create a community of yogis who support each other along the mindfulness path of meditation in motion.

Each class begins with a short relaxation focusing on body and breath awareness. Gentle stretching and postures follow. We practice focusing the mind on the body and breath throughout this 75 minute class.
Class ends with a 15-20 minute relaxation (shavasana) followed by a short breath meditation. Mindful Yoga is suitable for beginners (both floor and chair yogis) through advanced practitioners.
