A typical session will begin in lotus pose with a few minutes of relaxation and
breathing exercises to prepare the student mentally and physically for the more
demanding asanas (poses) and vinyasa (flow between poses) that follow. The
majority of the class is spent performing asanas to increase strength,
flexibility and balance.
The certified Yoga professional will assess the students' capabilities and
modifies the flow or gives hands on modifications to the poses to enhance
training/safety. After the asanas, a few minutes are spent working on abdominal
muscles and stretching. The last few minutes of every class are spent in
savasana (corpse pose) to slow the heart rate, calm the mind, and prepare the
student to enter the world refreshed.
