Classes are guided through the classic Sivananda 90 minute yoga structure, taught to me when I was living in the Sivananda Ashram, using 12 basic asanas, with a progression towards the 72 variations, bringing your energy, mind & body into balance. Understand the nature of your true self, calm your nervous systems, open your body & still your mind.
