Main Street, Wellsville, Kansas. Teaching since 2003.
Next class Monday, Tuesday and Thursday Yoga and Body Sculpt, three mornings and evenings a week.
The first class is free. No booking, no commitment. Turn up at a class time in something comfortable; you will not need shoes.
A small studio where one teacher knows your name, your knee, and what you are working towards.
Three classes, all taught by Lorrie. Turn up at the class time; there is nothing to book.
An all-levels class of gentle, slower-paced postures, without sun salutations. It works through flexibility, breath and balance, moving every joint in turn, and poses are modified to the person rather than the other way round. Class ends in savasana.
The same postures linked into a sequence that moves with the breath, with binds, longer holds and the occasional inversion or arm balance. Open to beginners as well as continuing students. The room is not heated; the practice builds its own heat.
Strength work for arms, abs, hips, back and legs, with corrective exercise for everyday movement. The shape of the class is warm-up, the sculpt workout, cool down and stretching, and it changes week to week.
Also taught: Chair Yoga and Restorative Therapeutic Yoga. Chair Yoga adapts the poses to a chair or wheelchair and suits walkers and canes. Restorative uses props and long holds at a slower pace. Call for current times.
Personal training by appointment, at the studio or at your home. Bring a friend or two and the rate covers all of you.
