CLASS DESCRIPTIONS

Yoga for a Healthy Back - in Balance: In this style of yoga, we integrate the alignments taught at the Balance Center into our yoga poses, to reduce injuries, increase length in the spine, and relieve back pain. For more information about Yoga in Balance, check out the Balance Center's website at www.balancecenter.com.

Restorative Yoga: Restorative poses help you to deeply relax body and mind, releasing stress and tension. We will do gentle poses on the floor with lots of props to encourage release. The poses do the work for you; you just relax and enjoy the benefits, such as lowered heart rate and blood pressure, a calmer mind, relaxed muscles, and a sense of renewal. This practice is the antidote to the busy world we live in today!

At Sonoma Body Balance, we value the environment. That's why we have natural latex yoga mats, rather than mats made of PVC. (There are some non-latex mats for those with allergies to latex). These mats are made in the USA, reducing the amount of fuel required for transportation, as compared to mats made in Asia. We also have yoga blocks made of cork, a renewable resource. We use CF light bulbs to reduce our energy "footprint" as well.
