Janak Desai, the yoga instructor, is a long time practitioner of yoga and a certified hatha yoga teacher. He is also an environmentalist and a Master Gardener.

Yoga is a practice that brings into union the body and the mind. The goal of yoga is
to rejuvenate the body, increase its strength and flexibility, relax the nervous system and quiet the thought waves of the mind. This results in overall well being, a joyful disposition and relaxed state of mind.
Janak will compassionately guide you through physical poses(asanas) and
breathing techniques(pranayama) to attain this goal.

This is a great gift to give to your body and even a better one to your mind. Go ahead do something for yourself. And bring along a friend!
