Restorative Yoga Classes |
Pelvic Floor Workshops |
In todays world people live in a world where "always doing" is applauded and real "rest" is seldom or ever achieved. We are in a constant "flight or fight" response. We are tired and wired. The restorative yoga practice is a respite from this busy world of activity and a panacea to our stressed and diseased bodies. We provide a variety of these classes throughout the year including restorative with essential oils, restorative with Reiki, and restorative with hot rocks.

Do you have leakage when you cough or sneeze? Do you have prolapse? UTI's? Irritable Bowel? Our dynamic seminars combine yoga principals, gentle exercise, and Pfilates to help you release tension and strengthen the pelvic floor which will allow the organs of the urinary system and uterus to have a strong basin to hold them. These exercises will improve your bladder function, tone your core, prevent surgery and maintain the lift after surgery. We teach much more than Kegels with lifestyle suggestions and nutritional advice.
