At Community Yoga we believe in the physical benefits of a regular asana, pranayama and meditation practice. We also believe that regular yoga practice has the power to transform lives in important emotional and spiritual ways. We work to bring the deeper dimensions of yoga to our students not only through our weekly classes, but also through special courses, workshops and retreats.
Please arrive at least 10 minutes before your first class to fill out the new student form and we will show you the studio so you feel at home. You are welcome to bring your own mat or use the mats and props we have at the studio. Please leave your shoes at the door. The teacher will guide you through everything you need to know in class, but if you have any questions please ask.
Community Yoga is Different
Our teachers are highly trained and value education. We believe in providing safe practices that also challenge and strengthen your body and mind. We believe in teaching the practice of yoga and empowering our students to learn practices they can take off of their mat and into the rest of their lives. Our teachers are here to serve our community and our students. We build lasting relationships and work with our students to get the most out of their practice and establish a practice that nurtures their individuality.
