“I am a huge proponent of students practicing yoga on their own in the safest way possible. I’m really proud of these water-resistant keychain pamphlets with a simple yoga sequence to encourage students to practice outside of class. It was sweet of the students to be the models for the pamphlet.”
Featured Student: Meet John
I don't typically roll my Mercy Church students upside down onto their heads. But after class, John was going for it on his own without any props or form. It gave me anxiety, so I guided him into this safer version of Halasana. This pose is so soothing to the mind and feels great on the back.
John said his back felt great for days after that class and said it was very helpful to clear his sinuses. John resisted class for many months because his back was in so much constant pain from a prior accident. Once he started, he felt the benefits almost immediately, and he is now a regular. He even practices on his own outside of class — a dream come true for me.
