Starting Your Yoga… To practice Yoga is to be in a state of constant change, learning to flow gracefully from one moment to the next. Cultivating "beginners mind" is to view our yoga practice and our lives with curiosity and acceptance as if experiencing them for the very first time.
Each of our classes offers unique benefits depending on the results you seek.
Have never done yoga before, how do I get started?
There are several ways for people to get started with yoga at Samadhi Yoga Studio. First, be sure to check our yoga class schedule and look for classes that are suitable for beginners.
Our regular class schedule has a variety of levels that are offered frequently through the week. Classes are available in several packages. The benefits of practicing yoga are greater with frequent practice.
For the person new to exercise or returning to exercise after a long break, yoga is the perfect vehicle. It is safe and you can go at your own pace.
For the athlete, yoga is also a perfect match. Many athletes enter yoga after a lapse in their training or when they feel fatigue, injury, tightness, a plateau in strength, stress, or just plain boredom. Yoga can fill that gap. Yoga is the perfect cross-training method for anyone looking to complement and enhance your sport.
For injury prevention and performance enhancement, Yoga is the answer as it provides essential cross-training benefits for any sport. Through Yoga you learn that attitude, patience, and pacing improve coordination, concentration, and endurance. The yogic state of mind also decreases your chance of overuse, overtraining, and injury. The mental skills acquired through the flow of the poses can be applied to a rigorous training session or a demanding competition. The more you cultivate a clear and centered mind in Yoga, the more practiced you are to remain focused and calm prior to a competition or event.
