Description
This class will help you improve your functional balance through progressive and creative strength-building sequences, core work and focused movement. Options will be offered to ensure a practice that is challenging for your own energy level and to help progressively build your yoga practice. We will also integrate postures that stretch the muscles worked. This practice is good for anyone wanting to improve their balance and strength in a mindful way.
Yoga blocks and a yoga strap (or tie or scarf) are often helpful. If you'd like to purchase your own props, visit www.yogakala.ca/shop
