Therapeutic Yoga

These classes will be taught by instructors who are certified in yoga and have gone on to earn certification in the therapeutic discipline. Our instructors may also possess licenses in Occupational Therapy and/or Teacher of the Handicapped. Demonstrations will be given to the class and assistance will be provided to each student individually as yoga is unique to each individual.

​

This class will focus on the physical postures of yoga, breathing exercises and techniques, meditation, and guided imagery. Therapeutic yoga works on the body, mind, and spirit, simultaneously, and strengthens different body systems including cardiovascular, pulmonary,  nervous and muscular systems. We welcome the special needs population as this discipline will foster improved motor skills, coordination, balance, cognition, relaxation and self-esteem.
