YOGA
Yoga is an ancient exercise originating in India, over 5000 years ago that bridges our life force energy, our breath, (pranayama) with body poses, (asanas) and mindfulness (meditation). Yoga is for every-one, all ages, body types and can be adapted to every-body.
Yoga benefits us by stretching and strengthening the muscles, joints, and spine; and assists the flow of blood & oxygen to our internal organs & systems, and endocrine glands.
There are many types and styles of Yoga that help to create harmony and balance in our bodies and minds improving our health and vitality.
