Iyengar Inspired Flow 1-2
Those of us who take up yoga as an antidote to a busy, stressful life find this class refreshing. Based on Inyengar and Anusara yoga teachings, the class is designed to release tension and build confidence, strength and balance. The class is guided by Tricia, who believes yoga to be a learnable practice that helps us to slow down and free ourselves of all the self-defeating tendencies that keep us stuck. “As we achieve balance inside, we come to treasure balance outside ourselves, we learn the Native American wisdom... to walk on the earth with balance and strength.” Mary White Feather |
