Hatha Yoga is a gentle and slow form of yoga which gives powerful results.
Not only does it improve your flexibility, it strengthens your muscles.
This class is a method of age proofing your body, by focusing on poses to improve your balance, strengthen your bones, and balance your hormones. Particularly useful in your menopausal years.

As I have taught Pilates for over a decade, ways to improve your posture and strengthening your core are also included in the class.
