Don't be shy or nervous... everyone is welcome to yoga. Come on in, take off your shoes, leave your busy mind at the door and choose a mat.

In a class with me, you will find that we usually sit or lie down at first for a little while and settle, after all the busyness of arriving and chatting. Sometimes we start standing, but we always settle our selves into the room before we begin.

We spend a few minutes focusing on the breath and waiting for stillness to descend upon the room and within our own selves. Then we begin.
We start by warming up the physical body and stretching out tightness and tension that build up through the day.

We may begin by moving the spine in it's beautiful 6 directions, or we begin by opening tight hips, stretching out those pesky hamstrings, or easing into a twist as we settle into the ground. Sometimes we start curled up in Child's pose, like a seed waiting to sprout.

Candles, incense and quiet music keep us present and focused.

Then we move into some postures, a sequence maybe, interspersed with counter-poses and short relaxing poses like the Child, Crocodile or Savasana, watching our breath, moving body, breath and mind as one.

Always, always finishing with a deep relaxation and often with meditation. Setting an intention, to take some of what has been revealed through the settling and stretching, into the rest of our day...we then say...

Namaste....We are One.
