"I practiced yoga throughout my entire pregnancy. It helped me feel more centered and relaxed, as well as ease back pain and general soreness from being pregnant. I noticed that when I missed a class my week didn't go as well. I would feel more anxious and moody. I feel that practicing yoga regularily really helped me to use my breath and stay calm and focused while giving birth. The people who attended my birth commented on how they thought my yoga practice helped me to have a peaceful home birth with no drugs and painkillers. "

"I am much stronger now than I was when I first came to Discover Yoga. I had experienced a back injury about a year after I had my daughter. I was physically very weak after childbirth and did not take an active interest in strengthening in the months after. I also had a very difficult time calming my mind during this time.

Usually I am not one to give advice, but if any mothers-to-be or new mothers asked me for recommendations on how to make managing their world full of changes a little easier on them, I would strongly encourage them to go to yoga. The strength one can gain physically can prove to be tremendously helpful during childbirth. In addition, the quiet I experience in mind and body during class has been essential for me in recharging and rejuvenating myself.

Since I began practicing yoga again, I have felt great physical relief from my back injury. I also feel stronger physically and very in tune with my body and mind. I enjoy many aspects of class at Discover Yoga - especially the non-competitive nature of the classes. It’s a wonderful and comfortable place to learn."

"I have been doing yoga for several years at Discover Yoga and the overall benefits of this practice are indescribable. I am a busy professional who "works out" everyday and thought myself fit. I never really understood the benefits of yoga until getting involved with Discover Yoga. Not only have I increased my flexibility (especially important because I do regular exercise) but through the rhythmic breathing that accompanies each asana the feeling of peace, serenity and overall well being after each practice is incredible. The grounded, centered feeling follows me through the day and helps me to remember to breathe through difficult situations. Discover yoga has such a great variety of classes for all levels everyone can join right in even if you've never been on a yoga mat before! I highly recommend Discover Yoga!

"Yoga is a lovely moving meditation for me. I can enter a class totally fractured from a busy stressful day and feel extremely grounded, present and peaceful at the end. I feel that yoga returns the 'me' to me that was there all along!" http://www.bbodyworks.com

"I was a little nervous to start the Yoga for Pregnancy class because I had never done yoga before, but the instructors are so welcoming, I quickly felt comfortable in the class.  The teachers are very knowledgeable in what is happening with your body and mind during pregnancy, and use what we say to customize each practice so that it meets the needs of each person in the class.  They explain what the different postures are doing and how to do them correctly and safely.

When I started (at 17 weeks), I had only minor body aches and pains, which I quickly found got better with each practice. My chiropractor was amazed that my back wasn’t getting worse during pregnancy, but was in fact, getting better!  In addition to the physical benefits of yoga, I also found that being with other pregnant women and sharing what was going on in each of our pregnancies was very encouraging and fun.  My only regret is that I didn't start doing Yoga for Pregnancy sooner!"

"Finding yoga, my life and my breath have really opened up into so many wonderful experiences. My most significant relationships have healed, blossomed and strengthened, many doors have opened to me and most precious of all, even brought new life into our lives. Yoga has supported me through many challenges and has taught me to find peace, balance and strength from within."

"I do yoga to be in my body as opposed to just lugging it around, to prevent minor aches and pains, to be strong both physically, emotionally and mentally, to let go of junk and replace it with peace and clarity, to recharge and regenerate, to reconnect with my core and help remind myself how to live the life I want to live. I do yoga to be able to be a better me."

"I have enjoyed practicing yoga at Discover Yoga since 1998 and I tell people all the time."I don't know where I would be today if it wasn't for yoga!". It's been such a rewarding journey discovering new ways of healing and strengthening my body and mind through yoga. I appreciate the depth of knowledge and commitment the teachers share with their students. The studio is a welcoming and safe place to do yoga and a peaceful place to leave the outside world behind. Thank you!"
