Yoga in the Garden @ The Bartlett Arboretum and Gardens
Come and join us to practice the ancient art of yoga in the serene surroundings of the Bartlett Arboretum and Gardens.
***All levels are welcome, from complete beginners to advanced practitioners***
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 a relaxed state of mind. The teacher will compassionately guide you through physical poses(asanas) and breathing techniques(pranayama) to attain this goal.
