Restorative yoga is a passive relaxing yoga. It is less active than any other yoga where the poses move and flow from one pose to another. In restorative yoga, we use props such as blankets, blocks, pillows chairs and bolster. When using the props this give you the opportunity to relax deeply in to the position with support. The props allow the body to be receptive to the subtle changes and to help release the body from tighten areas. When the body is in a supportive position then the position could be held from 5 minutes up to 10 minutes depending on the pose.

No experience for all levels.

Physical Benefits:

It's Important to understand that most of the things you do in your daily life can lead to imbalances in the body. The repetition of everyday life, in both physical and nonphysical ways can send your body out of alignment.

Even if yoga is not your thing, Restorative is a great addition to your physical well-being. Many do not take the time to restore the muscles. This is a great way to loosen the muscle from overuse. Whether it's physical or emotional this practice will help achieve a healthy balance.

Restorative is Only on Mondays 10am to 6pm for one hour session
