This yoga class is adapted especially to meet the needs of individuals with Multiple Sclerosis. The aim of practicing yoga is not to merely assume specific postures, but rather to combine breathing, posture, movement and awareness to achieve relaxation and body awareness. Practicing yoga can give you tools to help manage everyday tasks that include balancing to stand or walk, strengthening and alignment for standing up and sitting down and core strength for everything you do. 

Learn where you stand: your strength, flexibility, endurance, BMI and Body Weight ratio will be assessed. Option to add a Nutritional session or Personal Training session for a discounted bundle rate.
