The ancient tradition of yoga, is both a philosophical system and a physical science that benefits the body, mind, and spirit. Yoga improves flexibility and strength physically, and can also help reduce stress through controlled breathing, quieting the mind and meditation. The ultimate goal of a complete and consistent yoga practice of proper breath, proper exercise, positive attitude, and healthy living, is to release tension in the body, still the mind, and balance your life. Each yoga class we offer at Rise Yoga Studio will set you on this path. Our studio is a calm oasis where people can unwind, take a yoga class, enjoy a cup of tea and get a massage.

Child’s Pose (Balasana)

Kneel on the floor. Touch your big toes together and sit on your heels, then separate your knees about as wide as your hips.

Exhale and lay your torso down between your thighs.

Lay your hands on the floor alongside your torso, palms up, and release the fronts of your shoulders toward the floor. Feel how the weight of the front shoulders pulls the shoulder blades wide across your back.

Balasana is a resting pose. Stay anywhere from 30 seconds to a few minutes. Beginners can also use Balasana to get a taste of a deep forward bend.
