What if I'm not flexible? 
Then Yoga is just the thing for you! Many people think that they need to be flexible to do Yoga, but that's like thinking that you need to be able to swim to take swimming lessons. You will find that your flexibility will improve over time with practice and patience. The Introduction to Yoga course is a good place to start.

The Introduction to Yoga course sizes are limited to 12 people to ensure that each student receives lots of person attention to deal with individual requirements. Our teachers will show you how to modify the postures to assist healing, preventing further damage and to help manage your pain. Yoga is a form of therapy has been proven to assist with back, neck, shoulder, wrist and knee pain. Many yoga teachers were introduced to yoga when they suffered an injury. For example, Melissa our Studio creator came to yoga after it helped her to recover from chronic back pain suffered after being hit by a car as a pedestrian.
