Achieving Zen and Learning Fundamentals with Back-to-Basics Yoga

Look no further than Back-to-Basics Yoga if you’re seeking to explore foundational positions of the practice.

Students will learn fundamental principles of alignment in each pose, how to safely transition from one pose to another, variations of each pose to address injuries, breathwork, meditation, and more.

This class is meant for anyone and everyone, with much emphasis on safety and understanding, as it meets the needs of new and seasoned yoga practitioners!

A teacher will lead the session, and you’ll gain more flexibility, range of motion, and a better sense of relaxation under their leadership.
