Yoga Nidra literally means “yogic sleep”. This ancient technique uses guided meditations to bring you into deep states of conscious relaxation. Yoga Nidra is an effective method for relieving stress; easing anxiety. It is a systematic practice of moving awareness from our external world to the inner world; allowing the body and; mind to restore, rest, heal deeply. Yoga Nidra is done lying down in stillness while the instructor guides you.

There are 20 different muscles involved in hip flexibility. Too  much sitting puts pressure on the low back. Tight hips have  a direct impact on knees and low back. We start in simple  positions, use breath work for deep relaxation and progress as range increases. Flexibility is key in enhancing your  overall daily function. The class is designed for anyone to  participate, no matter what your skill level is, no experience  necessary. Please bring a soft pillow or yoga block to class.
