In our "Yoga for Staying Young" course, philosophy and practice are presented in a down-to-earth tone, inviting beginners and experienced yogis to build inner and outer strength and confidence.

The class starts with guided meditation and breathing techniques followed by the warming up of the joints. Then, through slow-paced, measured movements and holding poses, students improve (1) range-of-motion in the joints, (2) density of bone and muscle tissue, and (3) cardiovascular strength without strain. The sequence is not driven by “perfect” poses but more open to exploring breath work and meditation.

Diana Zagorskaya is currently giving this course, and here is what she says:

Whether you have never stepped on a mat in your life or you have been practicing yoga for a lifetime, I want to encourage you to practice!  We want to advance in life and be as dynamic as possible. Whether you are 45, 55, 65 or older and wiser, my most profound conviction is that we are in this together, all generations, determined to establish the most nourishing relationship with our body, mind, and spirit.
