Yoga Class Descriptions  

Yoga For Healthy Back: A class dedicated to strengthening the core muscles (abs and lower back) that are essential for flexibility and protecting the back from injury. Also simple exercises for total body health, addressing pain and calming the mind. 

Mixed Level Yoga:  Matches breath to movement as poses are woven together for a seamless, flowing practice. A class for those with some yoga experience, focusing on core muscle strengthening and employing the sun salutation and related postures.

Yoga & Weights: Hatha (Flow) Yoga and Free Weights. Yoga postures and movements for core muscle strengthening, flexibility, balance and relaxation; and weights for upper body toning. This is a more challenging class; however the difficulty is adjusted to meet the abilities and needs of the participants.

Living with Scoliosis: Scoliosis is a commonly occurring lateral curvature of the spine. It affects young and old alike. It leads to poor posture, back, hip and leg pain and impedes organic function. Instructor Maggie Wong has had scoliosis since childhood. As a yoga practitioner and instructor she has learned and developed a variety of exercises, stretches and self-massage techniques to successfully live with the affliction. These non-invasive techniques are not a cure, but will help one to deal the the condition and improve overall wellbeing, including posture and freedom from pain.
