Demystify Yoga and
Build a Strong Foundation
If you're new to yoga and curious about what it is, where it came from, and how it can enhance your well-being, this class is for you. Intro to Yoga is designed to demystify yoga and build a strong foundation. Each week, we’ll explore the essentials—why breathwork is key to your practice, foundational poses (asanas) that appear in most yoga classes, and the building blocks of a seamless yoga flow.
In this class, you will:
-
Understand the Practice: Explore the purpose and benefits of yoga
-
Create a Strong Foundation: Learn how to asses your own body to prevent injury
-
Build Confidence: Master key yoga poses to help you navigate group classes
From a physical perspective, yoga supports pain relief by gently restoring movement, circulation, and balance to the body. Chronic pain is frequently accompanied by guarding patterns: muscles tighten to protect sensitive areas, joints lose mobility, and compensation creates strain elsewhere. Over time, this protective tension can amplify discomfort rather than relieve it. Yoga works slowly and intentionally to unwind these patterns. Yoga Muse offers specialty courses and workshops in pain management throughout the year.
