Restorative Yoga to relax and renovate! Classes consist of a sequence of supported yoga and breathing techniques which allow a deep physical stretch, while bringing stillness to the body, and quietness to the mind without effort. Postures are held, without muscle tension, for longer periods of time using blankets, bolsters, and other props to enhance the work of gravity. Therapeutic aspects of yoga are emphasized to allow the body to move toward optimal alignment. Each class will target an individual aspect of the body as well as create overall well being. Restorative yoga is absolutely perfect for everyone at every level. Studio: Schenectady
