So, if you have been to a class before and didn’t enjoy it, this does not mean that yoga is not for you. Classes at Yoga Garage give you a pause from the busyness of daily life. You will have the chance to check in with your mind, body and breath. You might even find a strength and calm you didn’t know you had….. You’ll never know unless you step on the mat and give it a go! What can I expect in my first class? You can expect to tune in with your body, mind and soul. This means that you will learn to breathe consciously in a smooth and even way that strengthens the lungs, calms the nervous system and steadies the mind. Classes at Yoga Garage build strength and increase flexibility through mindful movement. Over time, you will maintain or even increase your range of movement and comfort – physically and mentally. Importantly, you will feel nurtured and become part of our supportive and inclusive yoga community. Do I have to be flexible to do all of the poses? NO! In fact, the opposite is true. Regardless of your level of flexibility, yoga will help you to increase your strength and range of movement. We are all unique, so start where you are and yoga will meet you there. Yoga does not judge or discriminate. Do you have more quesitons? To book in or for any further inquiries contact Karen Gunter at yogagarage@yahoo.com.au , via facebook at or phone 0403 198964
