Yoga improves emotional regulation, strength, balance, and range of motion as well as decreases pain, reduces anxiety, and prevents falls. Yoga strengthens, tones and stretches the musculoskeletal system of the body while calming the mind.

Yoga is breath. A yoga practice can be as simple as doing breathwork: pranayama. Yoga can be done sitting in a chair, on a mat, or in challenging poses: asanas. All yoga practices deliver benefits that impact daily life & overall physical, mental and spritual well-being.
