kundalini
this ancient form of yoga involves asana, (seat/pose), prana (life force/breath), mantra (mind projection/sound vibration), mudra (hand position), bandha (body locks), and dhristi (focus).  said to have immediate effects, and known as the yoga of awareness, kundalini yoga is the uncoiling of the being. practicing kundalini yoga keeps the body in shape and trains the mind to be strong and flexible in the face of stress and change. it increases oxygen capacity, boosts blood flow, balances the glandular system, strengthens the nervous system, and supports the skeletal and muscular systems. the effect is a heightened self-awareness and vitality that allows you to harness mental, physical and emotional energy. individuals feel more in control of themselves, with enhanced peace of mind, concentration, and a deep inner calm, self-confidence and physical well being.

tai chi
the art of moving meditation that provides both mental and physical benefits.  tai chi increases mental acuity, self confidence, increases flexibility, reduces stress, and improves balance, coordination and self esteem.  this is a unique class that is popular with students of all ages.  beginner and advanced classes available.
