I started taking classes at Foundation Yoga & Wellness Center in 2004 to rebuild function after a full hip replacement and I got so much more than I’d hoped for: Improved core strength and a deeper sense of physical confidence. Yoga has allowed me to avoid suggested back surgery for a herniated disc and I continue to pass auditions for high-level chorus singing; take long, strenuous hikes and exceed activity levels I’d ever expected at my age.Foundation Yoga Teachers create a community atmosphere, have a deep knowledge of anatomy and always offer precise instructions. I always have a wonderful spacious feeling inside when I leave class.- Ida
I am limited by a low spine injury from childhood and as I age, I am more aware of the importance of mobility and balance. I hike a lot so my lower body becomes very tight and coming to Yoga classes allows me to stretch more consistently and deeper than I would on my own.Since I started classes at Foundation Yoga, I’ve noticed increased flexibility, especially in my upper body and neck. It’s an excellent balance to my more rigorous fitness work-outs. I appreciate the slow flow sequences that are well thought out with very clear and specific instructions. These classes focus on mobility, movement and balance which are a great complement to an aerobic fitness routine. The staff and students are very welcoming and supportive.- Joe
More than 12 years ago, I had constant low-back pain and annoying injuries to my hips and knees caused by sitting at a desk job and "weekend warrior" ballet classes. Both the intensity and frequency of my back pain have decreased significantly and I’ve developed an ever-deepening mind-body-breath connection.Teachers tailor student's practice to what they need that day and the breadth of expertise in solving individual issues is amazing. The loving care, the humor, and the expert, clear and VERY SAFE instruction makes me feel lighter on my feet and calmer in my soul.- Joy
