Improves Flexibility and Mobility
Yoga encourages gentle, consistent stretching, which helps increase flexibility in muscles and joints. Over time, this can improve mobility in everyday activities and reduce tension. For example, poses like Downward Dog and Seated Forward Fold help lengthen the hamstrings and release tightness in the lower back.

Through cultivating an awareness of the breath and mindful movement, yoga activates the parasympathetic nervous system, which helps lower stress levels. Shavasana, our meditation at the end of the class, helps encourage relaxation, quietens the mind, and fosters a sense of inner peace, even amidst a busy world.
