“As long as you are maintaining that stable mind in all the upheavals of the emotional life, for me, that is Samadhi (enlightenment).”
Level I/II
Donna is teaching all-level classes that combine beginning and seasoned students. Instructions, props, and pose variations differ depending on skill, experience, and possible restrictions. We use props such as chairs, straps, blocks, and ropes to help students realize the benefits of the asanas as they learn to focus more deeply on strengthening and stretching the body.
Iyengar Yoga encompasses standing and sitting postures, backbends, balancings, and inversions such as shoulderstand (sarvangasana) and headstand (sirsasana) as students are ready. Breath awareness and philosophy are also explored. As students evolve, they’re challenged to work with more subtle, detailed attention to the mind and body.
Donna’s classes are designed to meet you where you are, so students can learn ways to incorporate yoga into their lives at all stages of life.
