Gentle Flow Yoga is designed to improve flexibility, posture, promote healthy joints, increase oxygen intake, strengthen bone and muscle and improve balance.
Throughout the classes we link movement to the breath and always end the class with some dedicated relaxation time giving the mind and body essential time to rest after the yoga practice.
In yoga, it is believed that our real age is determined by flexibility and health of our spine. As we get older, our range of motion and flexibility of spinal column diminishes and our posture deteriorates, leading to reduced musculo-skeletal body functioning. Yoga is the perfect activity to take up if you are older or if you suffer from aches and pains, because its low impact and precise motion combined with weightbearing postures have strengthening benefits for the whole body.
Regular practice of yoga can help reduce age linked ailments and will make you more agile, stronger, and importantly bring a real sense of relaxation.
