This Thursday

This Thursday, January 26th is the Start of our 10 week yoga session at the Loreburn Senior Centre. Just in case anyone is wondering, you can start about 4 weeks in and still be able to catch up!

A question that came up last week was: will we be able to do more and have the poses feel better with only once a week practice? The answer is Yes. However, if you practice at home...the difference will show much quicker, so...

Each week I will be giving out a card that shows a pose that you can focus on for the coming week. The next week we will pass them around and you will get a new card. By the end of the 10 weeks, there will be 10 poses that you have had the chance to really focus on by practicing at home...so...

I recommend home practice!
