All ages and experience levels welcome! Yoga enhances your flexibility, but flexibility is not required in order to begin. Emphasis is on learning poses by relaxing into them and releasing tension. Clear instructions are given so you know how to do the poses correctly and safely, with no pressure to perform any pose beyond your present ability. Every class begins with a warm-up and concludes with a guided deep relaxation. The instructor, Rollin Stearns, is a certified yoga instructor who has been teaching yoga since 1971.
