About Yoga
"I am a true believer that yoga practice enhances living on so many levels, making it a practice suitable for everyone. Yoga is a practice of awareness, the more aware we become on our yoga mats, the more aware we become in life."
yoga...metaphors for living
- Breathing through challenges on and off the yoga mat.
- Staying in the present moment where life is happening.
- Using the breath & bodily sensations to keep you in the moment, in and out of class.
- Doing more that you think you can.
- Raising ones awareness on & off the mat.
- Accepting where we are and moving from that place, on the mat & in life.
- Dropping expectations.

"Yoga practice helps us to experience our "authentic self," which is beyond the "self image."
Cathy Woods
" Yoga...so much more than a physical exercise. It is a practice that raises awareness of body, mind and spirit... Giving the practitioner tools to enhance living on ALL levels."
Yoga is not about...
Flexibility, athletic ability or competition.
It is about...
Raising ones awareness, body mind and spirit (in and out of yoga class!).
Accepting yourself where you are and working from that place with compassion, love and gentleness.
Connecting with your own inner wisdom.
It is a Journey not a destination.
"The class was a great way for us to focus on our bodies individually through meditation and balance techniques. At the end of class, everyone felt rejuvenated and there was a sense of calmness."
