No matter what physical activities you enjoy, they need to be complemented with a movement routine of lengthening, stretching and breathing.  Enjoy the benefits of yoga by  joining Connie, an E-200-RYT certified yoga instructor, in a gentle Hatha-based yoga practice. This practice is designed to help seniors increase flexibility while building strength and using breath efficiently. 

Possible side effects of regular attendance include:

  • Increased flexibility, strength & balance
  • Increased self-confidence, mental focus & energy
