Beginners Yoga Course (Make your New Year's Resolution to start finding Joy through Yoga!)

6 Week Beginners Yoga Course 
 
Wednesdays 6pm Starts 3rd week of January
 You've heard so many great things about yoga: it makes you strong, flexible, focused and 
obliterates stress. But you don't know where to begin (or what it actually is). Or maybe you've 
done the videos, but how do you know what you are doing is O.K.? We'll guide you, step-by-step, 
as you discover the wonderful practice of yoga. This is a great way to start off with each class
 covering :
The background for what yoga really is, and the style I teach
Simple breathing exercises that are common to our practice
Foundation yoga postures and how to adapt them to your abilities and needs.
How to link postures together in a wonderful, juicy flow.
We'll repeat things a lot so you are sure to learn them. And, I also make time to teach you how to 
modify the postures to accommodate your body and its unique needs.
And don't be surprised if you graduate with more than a few great friends!
Details: 
This will be a 5 week course, structured to accomodate everyone! It doesn't matter if you can't
 remember the last time you worked out or even if you're convinced you can't get back into good 
shape, lose weight or increase your flexibility. This yoga series can work for you!
Length: 45 min 
Price: ONLY $15.00 per class!

Advance Your Yoga Practice Workshop Series



So you've been practicing yoga for a while now and you're getting so much stronger! Your body is looking beautiful and your mind is feeling so much more at peace. But from time to time in group classes you see people popping into headstands or forearm balances and when you try you can't make sense of it? They make it look so easy (like levitating) but your arms won't hold you up for longer than a second! What on earth are they doing differently? Usually this is just a case of incorrect alignment or fear and all it takes to get you into the bigger poses is learning them slowly, step by step, with the right teacher.

You know we love you here at Revolution right? So we want to bridge that gap for you, giving you the tools to move to the next level in your yoga practice. Normally it would take 5 or 6 private lessons to get the specialized attention needed to produce this change in your body but that would cost a fortune! So instead we have put together an affordable, super fun class series just for yogis like you!

Sign up Today as we are expected to sell out fast. Only 25 spots available.
