Sweet Surrender
There’s nothing better after a stressful day than a soothing release. Grab a bolster and enjoy Sweet Surrender with us this July!
Harshness off the mat can show up as struggling on it. Whether it is the inner chatter or forced poses, deep stretching can restore balance. Learn how to lean into resistance so that you find ease in discomfort.

Benefits
Reduce Chronic Pain
Relaxation improves the mind and body relationship that contributes to chronic pain. It allows one to respond from present ease rather than past tension.
Less Is More
Unlike hatha or vinyasa, each pose in restorative yoga is held between five to ten minutes and the body is supported with props to facilitate deep stretching.
Promotes Internal Health
Restorative yoga activates the parasympathetic nervous system which regulates bodily functions including digestion, elimination, and more.
Limitations
Do not register for class if you have one or more of the following health conditions or symptoms:
depression
low blood pressure
recent surgery or accident
Always consult your physician before beginning any exercise program. If you receive medical clearance, inform the instructor at the start of class and practice modifications with props.
