Open to all: beginners, those returning to practice after a pause or injury, and students who have recently completed the Intro Series with Sonia. This series offers structured and methodical instruction for learning yoga asana step by step in a supportive and inclusive environment.

Learn to tailor poses to your specific needs with proper support and the use of props when necessary. Balance the intensity of effort with rejuvenation and calming of the nervous system.
