Description: In this challenging class you will start with a small warm-up, and then hold five (5) postures for 10 minutes each, and then end the class with savasana.
Challenging the endurance of your mind and body to hold a posture for a prolonged period of time will force you to find your alignment, relaxation, and concentration. Engaging in an occasional endurance practice can open up your emotional and physical being to a new level.
You do not have to be an advanced student in order to participate, although more advanced students will find this more appropriate for their skill level. Students of all levels will learn something about themselves in this class.
