Why Yoga?

Yoga brings together the mind, body and spirit. It is the study of our true nature and a quest for understanding who we really are. Yoga is a way of living and an opportunity to shine the light on all the shadow places.

The benefits of slow, mindful yoga.

Slow, conscious yoga creates resilience in the body and activates the parasympathetic (rest/digest) nervous system. It promotes healing, reduces inflammation, improves focus, concentration and awareness. The overstimulated world needs for us to reap the benefits of this practice.

Testimonials

Taking classes with Mina has not only increased my passion to actively engage in and continue learning about yoga, but has also shaped me into a more mindful practitioner. Having a busy schedule, as most people do, I can confidently say that making time for this class merely once a week has benefited my physical and mental health tremendously! By generally assigning each session a new theme to focus on, there was never a dull moment attending these classes. Her user-friendly style of teaching caters to a wide range of individuals, making it so that this is a perfect series for beginners and professionals of any age or background alike. I loved how she would consistently offer different variations to the many poses throughout the practice, allowing me to choose between the easier or more difficult ones depending on my range of flexibility. I would recommend Mina’s classes to anyone!

~Nick L.

I look forward to Mina's yoga class because every single instruction she provides reminds us not only of the asanas we are partaking in but the larger reason of why it is so critical, especially in our busy lives today. I found that every single move, the breathing exercises, her choice in reading a spiritual piece during savasana, her attention to detail and guiding us in the hour, transports me to a place of tranquility -- the fine balance between ease and effort.

~Smeeta H.

I originally came to Mina’s class because I wanted to know more about yoga. She is a patient and understanding teacher. She helped me to feel more stable in the poses by carefully offering some simple adjustments, with props and cues, and this in turn, allowed me to relax more and breath more deeply. I liked the yoga session so much, I was excited to go again!
