Yoga

Yoga combines physical postures, breathing techniques & meditation to improve overall mental, physical & emotional health.    Physical postures, or asanas, are designed to tone, strengthen & align the body while improving balance & flexilbity.  Breathing techniques, or pranayama, are used to increase respiratory efficiency while relaxing the mind and body.  Meditation techniques are used to quiet, clarify and discipline the mind.  By encouraging mindfulness, individuals are able to improve overall functionality & quality of life.
