At SoundYoga we offer small group classes (12 max), to support personal growth, through individualized yoga instruction, in a beautiful studio with heated bamboo floors.

In this peaceful setting, there is just you, your body and breath, practicing with a few other students under the guidance of a well-trained yoga instructor. Our classes adapt yoga practice to each individual's needs, body type, health status, and personal life goals. Our teachers are distinguished by the fact that they are all Certified Yoga Teachers by the Krishnamacharya Healing Yoga Foundation (KHYF).

In addition SoundYoga provides classes in corporate settings, weekend workshops on special topics, Yoga Therapy in a one on one setting and 500 hour teacher training, certified by the Krishnamacharya Healing Yoga Foundation and registered with the Yoga Alliance.

What Is Yoga?

Yoga has been used for more than 5000 years to unite mind, body, and spirit.

In yoga we combine movement, breath, meditation, and sound to calm the mind, stretch and strengthen the body, and bring a sense of well-being and joy to our souls.

At SoundYoga we teach in the living tradition of T. Krishnamacharya, a great yogi who lived to be 101 and made many contributions to yoga practice throughout the world. This lineage is carried on by his son, T.K.V. Desikachar and grandson Kausthub Desikachar through the Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram and the Krishnamacharya Healing Yoga Foundation. (more...)

Why Is Yoga Good For Us?

Many national and international studies have shown that yoga can improve our health and well-being. Yoga increases flexibility and improves posture and balance. It reduces stress by lowering stress hormones and increasing circulation to our organs with focused breathing. Yoga strengthens our muscles and bones. It can help to relieve pain in some conditions by increasing blood flow. Yoga improves brain function by integrating the right and left sides of your brain through movement.

Who Is Yoga For?

Everyone, regardless of age, ability, or experience can benefit from Yoga. Depending on the student and the goal it might be employed to reduce stress, increase flexibility, relieve pressure on a certain part of the body or to develop better focus, strength and peace of mind.

This tradition of yoga is especially therapeutic for people with stress and high blood pressure, as well as for people with health concerns like arthritis, asthma, autoimmune disorders, chronic fatigue, heart disease, repetitive strain injuries, and pain.    Read testimonials about Sound Yoga.
