Yoga Library

This class library has 2 years of recordings that are intended to be used and shared freely. There are classes for folks who are newer to the practice, for more seasoned practitioners, or for those who just want a simple no frills practice. There is a little something here for everyone, because not all yoga is physical exercise.
 
I am always available for questions, or clarifications. Please do not hesitate to reach out and ask for more personal guidance or instructions.
