"Yoga won't turn you into a religious fanatic, it won't turn your body into a pretzel and you won't be forced to meditate. What it will do is help you learn to appreciate yourself and to appreciate others. It's a method of physical, mental and emotional development." - Mary Cavanaugh, Co-Founder of YogaJP.


Yoga for Beginners

How Yoga Works

Yoga is a complete system for maintaining mental, physical and spirtual health. The medical community, both traditional and alternative practioners, agree that adding yoga to your health regiment can pay off positive dividends.

Simply put - yoga helps you relax by using a series of stretching and breathing exercises. The relaxation you get from yoga will lead to less stress, less tension, less worry and less pain.

Finding the Right Type of Yoga for You

If you are new to yoga, you will find a very wide choice of yoga styles to choose from. You can feel overwhelmed trying to find the right yoga style for you. That's why many new and beginning yoga practioners start with Gentle Yoga. Gentle Yoga is based on the Classic Hatha Yoga style. Gentle Yoga focuses on stretching and toning muscles that are often neglected, but so important to keeping you healthy and mobile. And best of all, Gentle Yoga is easy enough for beginners, so you can remain motivated to keep up your practice - day in and day out! Once you've gotten the hang of practicing the basic postures of Hatha Yoga, you can move on to other styles of yoga for added benefits.

Changes you will Experience by doing Yoga

No matter if you are a couch potato, a weekend athlete or a hard-core athletic competitor - yoga will bring more balance to your state of health.

  • All wound up and stressed out? Yoga will calm your nerves and reduce your tension.

  • Feeling lazy and unmotivated? Yoga will get your body moving, increase your blood flow and give you more energy.
