Word of the day: supple! Many folks are on the fence about starting yoga because they are “too stiff”. Actually this is one great reason to begin ~ to balance out strength with improved range of motion. The way I teach, yoga is accessible to you at your own level and pace. It is not actually necessary to be too bendy, but when you think of it, you want to be able to bend down, tie your shoes or reach for something on a shelf; flexibility is pretty practical. That being said, stretching is not all created equal. It does not mean yanking, pulling, tearing, and you want to be careful. Contact me for more info!
