Candlelight Yoga: Thursdays @ 7:00pm
Join us for our Candlelight Yoga class which draws from gentle and restorative yoga practices and is designed to relax, restore, and rejuvenate the body, mind, and spirit after a long day.
Class takes place in our cozy second studio in a calming “candle lit” environment to help get the body ready for rest.
It a perfect class for beginners, experienced yogis, and anyone needing a pause from an everyday busy life.
In this class you hold positions for longer than in conventional yoga. By doing so, this yoga style activates the parasympathetic nervous system which controls the body’s ability to relax, which carries tremendous impact when under stress.
The focus is on “restoring” harmony back to the parasympathetic nervous system which then helps the body relax so the brain and body can recharge and heal.
What to expect:
This class features anywhere from six to eight poses that are gentle and for all levels of practitioner. We’ll be using props (blankets, blocks, pillows) to allow the body to feel fully supported to relax even deeper into poses designed to release muscle tension through gentle stretching, while quieting the busy mind, and calming the breath.
