Asanas or poses are comfortably held for longer periods so as to activate energy and transformation at a more profound level. This class is suitable for any and all levels of experience and is great for anyone looking to slow down, to relieve stress, to calm the excessive mind chatter, or even those recovering from injuries. Restorative Yoga brings your soul to wholeness.

Please wear comfortable, warm clothing and assemble as many props as you can. The following props will be used in all restorative yoga classes and may be substituted with other readily available items from home: a pair of blocks, a bolster, a folded blanket, and a strap. Some free wall space may also be useful.

Here’s a helpful link if you’re looking for prop substitutes from home.
