Restorative Yoga is a passive practice meant to activate the body’s relaxation response. In a Restorative Yoga practice, postures are held several minutes. The postures are supported by a variety of props including blankets, bolsters, blocks, straps and walls to eliminate any unnecessary strain and encourage full relaxation. In Restorative Yoga, the intention is to achieve the deepest opening possible, not the deepest stretch possible. Students are fully supported in every pose so that their bodies can comfortably take the shape of the pose and relax fully. This is an important practice especially in today’s fast pace world to allow yourself to take the time to learn to slow down and give yourself permission to rest.

This class is for everyone. Dress in warm comfortable clothes and bring a scarf or an eye cover. Students leave her class feeling open, warm and hopeful with a sense of gratitude for showing up to their mat.
