Yoga offers a multitude of benefits to all who practice including improved flexibility, strength, joint mobility, improved posture and stress relief. It is also a powerful mindfulness and self-care tool. All of which are great reasons to practice yoga. However, a yoga practice has a lot of subtleties and you may find a group class may not address all of your needs.

 

Here are a few reasons why a private class might be right for you?

 

New to Yoga, Gaining Initial Experience

 

We believe yoga is a practice for everyone and you are never too old or too young to start. Beginning yoga students can sometimes feel overwhelmed in typical group class settings, particularly during the first few classes. It can be challenging learning the class ques and personal flexibility might require a little extra instruction before it becomes easier to find space in different poses. If you are new to yoga, you may benefit from private lessons to gain confidence and learn safe practices to help you ease gracefully into a group class.

 

Personalization to Focus on Your Goals

 

Private yoga instruction can help your practice grow. Private yoga lessons also offer students the ability to focus on personal goals, challenges or interests that expand beyond a typical group class. A private lesson allows a student to expand their practice to meet their specific needs or goals, such as flexibility, strength or building a meditation practice.

 

Overcoming Health Challenges and Concerns

 

We find many of our clients start their journey into yoga after experiencing a health concern or challenge with an injury. While yoga is a great tool, injuries and health concerns can make a normal yoga class challenging for some participants and the student may want to learn how to safely approach their practice with their specific concerns in mind. When injuries and health concerns are a potential issue, it is best to have a private yoga lesson. We can work around the problem, offer modifications and help you avoid further complications.
