| The
mission of The Health Advantage Yoga Center is to enhance the health,
well-being and unity of body, mind, heart, and spirit through Anusara
Yoga and related disciplines.
HATHA YOGA is an ancient discipline
that explores, develops, and integrates the body, 
mind, and spirit. Yoga systematically stretches and strengthens
muscles throughout the body, increases circulation to internal organs
and glands, quiets the nervous system, and improves concentration.
This ancient system of self-care brings vitality, health, deep relaxation,
and peace of mind.
The style of Hatha Yoga taught is the Anusara method, based on the
work of John Friend. Anusara Yoga is a new style of yoga that is
heart-oriented, spiritually inspiring, and yet grounded in a deep
knowledge of optimal body alignment in the poses. Instructors encourage
students to listen to their body, respect its wisdom, and to progress
at their own pace. Deep relaxation is taught in each class after
completion of the postures. The intention of the instructors at
HAYC is to assist students in the development of physical, mental,and
spiritual well-being: a truly priceless health advantage.
The Health Advantage Yoga Center offers four sessions of classes
per year. Courses offered include Anusara style Hatha Yoga plus
workshops in related topics. The Yoga Center features well-trained,
professional instructors, progressive teaching methods, a non-competitive
and encouraging atmosphere, a flexible make-up policy for missed
classes, and a beautiful light-filled facility.
