Yoga is an ancient discipline that goes beyond physical wellness. It was created to help you become more aware of your body and establish a strong mind-body connection. Yoga is a practice, and a journey. We invite to start (or resume) this journey with us here at Orinoco.
Practicing yoga regularly, at least once or twice per week, will help you manage stress, increase stamina and improve your health.

"
Yoga is for everyone and it is far from just a physical practice. Through yoga we learn the ultimate body-mind connection. Yoga helps us become aware of our inner strength and through breath and movement, it offers an opportunity to cultivate peace. Yoga has helped me recover from injuries and stay centered during various life changes.
My teaching is alignment-based and happy.""

The creative sequencing found in a Vinyasa class is often built around Sun Salutations. All levels are welcome. Our Vinyasa Flow class is Tuesdays at 9 am with Kris Rumzis.
"When we listen to our bodies and truly honor them, we not only connect to improve our physical bodies but our mental and spiritual state as well. Connecting with my students on a personal level inspires me to teach daily. I am eternally grateful for this ancient, beautiful practice of Yoga and for the invaluable lessons it continues to teach me."

"I was practicing yoga to get a stronger core and become better at martial arts and realized the importance of the mind/body connection that yoga offers. Yoga is a lifestyle choice / an attitude (it's not a diet or a quick fix). I love that yoga is not competitive, it's something you practice and do for you. You don't need to be flexible to come to yoga, you do yoga to become flexible (and everyone's body is different)."

"Yoga has connected my physical body and opened a path to inner Awareness. At first it served as a way to strengthen and elongate the muscles. Combined with a free weight training program, I saw an increase in bone density. Improving my flexibility has resulted in a 20% faster time in running the mile, while remaining free of major injuries."
