Our Intro to Yoga II series is a great way to further your foundational yoga practice. These six-week sessions are designed for anyone who has taken the Intro to Yoga series at 8 Limbs, or already has a basic understanding of the foundations of yoga poses and is ready to learn more advanced poses, along with pranayama and some yoga philosophy.

About the Teacher: Alex Baker
What to expect in Alex’s classes: Alex creates a supportive and encouraging environment in each and every one of her classes. Her students learn how to move their body with greater awareness, cultivating stability while increasing strength and flexibility. In addition to the physical (asana) practice Alex teaches her students how to connect deeper to their breath through pranayamas (breathing techniques) and visualizations, promoting a relaxed mind while decreasing stress. During her classes she enjoys weaving together insights from the Yoga Sutras as well as information from the science of Ayurvedic Medicine. Alex has found that these ancient teachings are means to help practitioners function optimally and holistically within the seasonal cycles.
