50+ Yoga These classes aim to address the flexibility, balance and stress needs of those who are 50 years or more.  The poses taught in this course are similar to those taught in the Beginner A & B course, but they are done with more support and with a gentler and more mindful approach.

Level I classes are for students who have either completed the former Beginner A & B, the Introduction to Yoga course, or who have had previous training in Iyengar Yoga.  If you have had training in another style of yoga then please call to inquire about starting at Level I.  Inversions and simple back-bends are introduced.  

Level II classes are for students who have been taking Level I classes for at least one year, and who are confident in coming up in head balance (sirsasana).  Yoga philosophy (Patanjali's Yoga Sutras) are integrated more than in previous levels into the practice of asana, and pranayama is taught every four weeks at this level. 

Level I-III is a monthly 3-hour workshop with a different focus each month (please click here for workshop information and dates).  

Level II/III is for experienced students with a regular practice.  Variations in sirsasana and sarvangasana, back-bends, forward-bends and twists of all kinds, and pranayama are taught in these classes.

Multilevel is open to all students who have completed Beginner A & B, or who have experience in other styles of yoga.

Stress Reduction 
This 6-week course is a very practical method for learning to experience each moment more fully. It involves learning to develop moment-to-moment awareness of your thoughts, feelings and body sensations through a number of mind-body practices including gentle stretching, meditation, breath awareness and full body awareness. The program will help you uncover inner resources for coping with stress, gain insight into the underlying basis of your stress reactions, and learn to transform problems into opportunities for growth.
