Pilates or Yoga Class (Private Class 1:1) (1 Session)

About This Service

Yoga refers to the creation of balance between body, mind, and spirit. Yoga practice is a process of training the body, breathing, and mind to focus on the breath, leading to improved concentration. In practice, three elements must be combined: slow movements, coordinating breath with movement, and maintaining a calm mind while moving.
1. Strengthen core muscles & Improve posture: Practicing yoga strengthens core muscles, relieving neck, shoulder, and back tension resulting from improved posture. Many people experience back pain from incorrect posture while working or driving, leading to muscle tension and spinal compression. Yoga can help alleviate this problem.
2. Top to toe flexibility: Yoga can relieve muscle tension (muscle tone) from head to toe. The various poses, as we move or stretch, increase the flexibility of the muscles in the back of the legs, back, shoulders, and hips.
3. Confidence booster: Increases confidence in walking and improves posture. Many yoga poses require shifting body weight in new ways. This includes balancing on one leg (such as in Tree Pose) or supporting oneself with one's arms (such as in Downward-Facing Dog). Performing these poses while controlling one's breath helps strengthen muscles and improve balance, one of the key benefits of yoga, especially as one ages. One-legged poses and inverted poses build core strength, which helps keep the torso upright.
4. Help you keep your cool: Yoga helps reduce cortisol, a hormone often released when we are stressed. Case studies have shown that practicing yoga once a week for two years can reduce inflammatory substances by up to 41%.
5. Better libido: Yoga helps relieve anxiety and balances sex hormones in the body, potentially improving the quality of life for some practitioners who have problems with their libido.
6. You are happier and sleep better: Yoga helps the brain release hormones that improve mood. Practicing yoga for at least one hour continuously can increase the brain's release of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), an amino acid that acts as a neurotransmitter, by up to 27%. (Neurotransmitter) Acts as an inhibitor to maintain the balance of the neurotransmitter system, helping the brain relax, reduce stress, reduce anxiety, and make it easier to fall asleep, thus creating true restful balance.
7. You look younger. It can help us look younger and more energetic because it helps the body produce growth hormone and DHEA hormone. Both of these hormones help the skin look youthful, energetic, and lively all the time.
