Common Questions:
Q: I’ve heard that there are different kinds of yoga. What kind of yoga do you teach?
A: We teach alignment-based, Hatha yoga which includes sun salutations, yoga poses, meditation, relaxation poses, and breathing exercises. Alignment-based yoga uses specific actions to move the body into and out of yoga poses. Practicing yoga with attention to how the body is aligned reduces the risk of injury, and improves strength, flexibility, and stamina while reducing physical stress and tension. Alignment-based yoga increases body-awareness and promotes a strong union between body, mind, and spirit.
