Why practice yoga?
When most people think of yoga they think of exercise. And while yes, yoga can be a great workout...it is also so much more than just the physical poses (asanas). Yoga is an ancient art form and practice that contains many inspiring life philosophies, practices and ways of living. That's why all of our classes put a heavy emphasis on the mental aspects of yoga as well as the physical. The word yoga in Sanskrit means to unite or connect. In yoga practice, we are quite literally joining and uniting our mind and body.
