Gentle Yoga
I teach yoga classes. Presently I teach two regularly scheduled gentle yoga classes at two different
community centers in San Jose.
community centers in San Jose.

Starting September 2019, I am teaching a YIN YOGA class at the YMCA. (click here for info.)
|
In these Gentle Yoga classes we practice yoga poses at a comfortable pace . . . we do not flow through poses, we move into a pose, stay for a few breaths, then slowly move to another pose. The poses stretch the body and release tension, as well as allow us to practice strength, flexibility, and balance. In between small combination of poses we practice getting down and getting up. Gentle yoga isn't necessarily "beginner yoga" but it is yoga done a slower pace than most flow classes.

". . . yoga may be anything that gives you a sense of unity, helps you better connect with yourself, and helps you remember who you are. It might be a walk along the beach, a luxurious yawn, or simply taking a single conscious breath.
Any practices that helps you center yourself is important. . . . ."
