‘Yoga is like life – it’s a balance of holding on and letting go. Yoga does not change the way you see, it transforms the person who sees. It’s not only for he flexible, it’s for the willing’
Through regular Yoga practice you will feel physically strong and supple.
Yoga works on the whole self – body and mind. Practicing Yoga will strengthen your mental focus as well as making space to allow the body and mind to settle, relax and unwind. Some Yoga practice will leave you feeling invigorated, with energy levels you never thought possible while others will bring a sense of calm, peace and groundedness
Yoga asanas (postures), pranayama (breathing techniques) and meditation practices have a positive and stimulating effect on the internal organs, immune system, digestive and lymphatic system, therefore providing a therapeutic treatment for many conditions.
For many people, practicing Yoga is simply a form of exercise or a way of alleviating the stresses of modern life, but ultimately, the practice of Yoga is a truly holistic approach to health. It has a positive effect on the whole self, both physically and mentally.
