Our Philosophy
|
The Yoga Connection instructors are dedicated to teaching Hatha Yoga
using the Anusara principles of alignment founded by John Friend in
1997. The Sanskrit meaning of Anusara is "flowing with Grace"
or "following the heart". This style of yoga is especially
concerned with proper alignment using the philosophy that the mind,
body and spirit are equally divine and equally honored. Students are
encouraged to listen to their bodies in order to strive for good health,
both physically and mentally. We strive to teach yoga in a peaceful,
relaxing, and loving environment.
Benefits
Yoga provides many physical and mental benefits. You can improve your
strength, flexibility, balance and coordination, as well as, find
relief from joint stiffness. Yoga also offers mental clarity and increases
your ability to focus and concentrate. A regular practice will reduce
stress and leave you feeling calm and refreshed.
At The Yoga Connection, we encourage students to listen to their bodies
to create a heightened sense of body awareness - which is essential
to good health. By exploring physical poses, breathing exercises,
and relaxation techniques, instructors help students make the mind,
body, inner spirit connection.
What We Offer
We offer a wide variety of classes to meet the needs of all students
- beginner to the advanced practitioner, all ages, and whether physically
fit or physically challenged. We invite you to join us as we explore
the many physical, mental, and spiritual benefits of yoga.
We strive to teach yoga in a peaceful, relaxed, and supportive
environment.
