meditation, and ethical principles to promote overall well-being and harmony of body and mind.
Absolutely! Yoga is inclusive and offers practices for all levels. Beginners can start with foundational
poses and gradually progress.
Wear comfortable, breathable clothing that allows for a wide range of motion. Avoid clothing that may
restrict your movement.
Hatha and beginner-friendly Vinyasa classes are excellent starting points. These styles focus on
foundational poses and provide a good introduction to basic yoga principles. The asana + workshop style
class is great for beginners as it has time to reflect and learn the poses from the flow(asana only) portion
of the class.
While yoga promotes overall health, including weight management, it may not be as intense as some
other forms of exercise. Combining yoga with a balanced diet and other exercises can support weight
loss.

flexibility gradually.

of the shared spiritual essence. You can use it for hello and goodbye.

discomfort. Stay hydrated, but avoid heavy meals.
