What is Yoga, Really?

Heard of it but think it’s all just about being really bendy?

So, you’ve heard of Yoga but think it’s just about being super bendy? 🤔 Maybe you’ve never tried child’s pose, have no clue what a downward dog is, or aren’t sure why people keep talking about “zen”. It’s time to get to know this amazing practice a bit better!

Yoga isn’t just about exercise—it’s a blend of mind, body, and breath that’s all about learning and evolving. Whether you’re looking to increase flexibility, find focus, relax, or yes, maybe even touch your toes (psst… straight legs are overrated! 😉), Yoga is here to support your journey.

But back to Yoga, what is it?

Some say exercise, a philosophy or a way of life? In short, Yoga encourages the connection between your mind, body and your breath – which are considered the three fundamentals of all human beings.

Yoga postures, called asanas, work on strength, flexibility, and balance. Plus, it brings an added bonus—it helps you to quieten your mind and relax your body.

Classes can start lying down, seated, or standing, but wherever you begin, expect to move and flow at your own pace, with some classes being quicker and more dynamic, and others slow and restorative.
