Jessica goes through some harmonium practice techniques that are good for all levels, but certainly a great start for beginners getting used to a new instrument. Try to relax, meditate on the sound, and focus on the transitions between notes….just like vinyasa yoga!

Here are some things a person new to yoga should consider before attending their first yoga class. Finding the right studio, the right teacher is in some part a matter of preference. Decide what you’d like to explore in your yoga practice and learn to ask the right questions. Are you looking for flexibility, strength, balance, resilience, relaxation?

Are you considering starting yoga, but you feel self conscious to start in a group? Are you an experienced yoga practitioner, but you need your yoga practice to fit your schedule? Recovering from or learning how to work with an injury or change in your body? Private yoga sessions might be something to consider….
