Alternating weeks with Stephanie Metz

Baby & Mama Yoga classes provide an opportunity for you to regain strength and flexibility, bond with baby and meet other Moms. (And to practice getting out of the house!). The focus of the class is on poses and breathwork specifically tailored for new moms. Special attention is placed on developing Mom’s core strength and stability: the abdomen, back and pelvic floor, as well as relieving tension in the neck, shoulders and back. Previous yoga experience is not necessary; women who have practiced yoga before will find these classes a great transition back to their pre-pregnancy practice. Babies aged 6 weeks up to new walkers are welcome. Moms are invited first to meet the needs of Baby, then to participate in class; breastfeeding and diaper-changing are welcome!

The pillars of Forrest Yoga® are breath, strength, integrity, and Spirit. The mission of this dynamic and mindful yoga practice is to create in each of us a sense of freedom, a connection to our spirit, and the courage to walk as our spirit dictates. This challenging practice empowers the student while emphasizing breath connection, core strength, body awareness, and most importantly, joy. Forrest Yoga® will enable you to go deeper, find your truth, and encourage you to take the gifts you have received while on the mat as you walk your path off the mat throughout your life’s journey.

The only one of its kind on the North Shore, this class is specifically for students who have scoliosis. Each class will work on a specific task related to broadening your awareness and applying that knowledge to asana. All Poses will be modified to activate the weaker muscles of your back and core. Each class builds on the previous class so clear progress will be seen and felt. This group class is limited to ten people for maximum individualized attention. This class is offered in 6 week sessions and pre-registration is REQUIRED. Call the studio or email me for details.

This form of yoga is great for beginners, seniors, those students with limited mobility or prior injury. It is also great for anyone looking for a more relaxing way to practice. Gentle yoga is designed specifically to help with the healing process that accompanies injuries and is great for people who suffer from lower back injury or discomfort. This gentle class combines basic yoga poses and breathing exercises to help strengthen the body and relax the mind. It is a fantastic, gentle way to start or end your day.
