Yoga For Strength
May 4 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am
with Michele Insley
Saturdays, April 27 – June 8 (no class on May 18)
In-Person and on Zoom
9:00 – 10:00 am
Enhance the benefits of your yoga practice this spring in a special three week series, Yoga for Strength.
Longer holds and light weights will be added to familiar yoga poses to increase strength, improve balance and flexibility. Adding light hand weights to your yoga practice can help to boost lean muscle mass while supporting heart and bone health!
This class will be offered hybrid. If you are joining us in person, please bring your own weights. We will have a limited selection of hand weights for use at the Center. Weights are available at Amazon, Target, Dick’s Sporting Goods and other retailers. The addition of weights is optional and the practice will be effective regardless!
Michele’s primary training is through the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health where she is certified at the 500-hour level. She has over 4000 teaching hours and is considered an ‘experienced teacher’. She is devoted to her yoga studies and continues her education in yoga asana (the physical practice) as well as yogic philosophy and history, and the “deeper practices” of yoga. As a result, she is influenced and inspired by a variety of teachers in other styles of yoga which include yin yoga, ashtanga yoga and various meditation practices.
When you register you will receive a confirmation email for the class with the zoom link.
