“As hard as things get, inside or outside of class, remember everything is temporary. Rest waits for you on the other side.”

FEEL THE SENSATION

Good to know

the 8 limbs of yoga

The practice has eight branches encompassing various aspects of life, including moral disciplines, physical postures, breath control and meditation.

DO YOUR BELLY A FAVOR

Those twisting and bending poses? They're like a massage for your digestive system, getting the blood flowing and giving your tummy a gentle rubdown.

what’s the role of mantra?

Mantras are those magic words in yoga that you can chant out loud, whisper to yourself, or even say quietly in your head. Repeating a mantra is a little meditation trick that can calm your busy mind and help you feel more connected to your inner self.
