Looking for a way to move your body, calm your mind, and feel better overall—without the impact and intensity of traditional workouts? Our program in Yorkville, on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, offers a welcoming, gentle, and highly effective approach to health and wellness. This class is perfect for adults of all ages and fitness levels, whether you’re just beginning your wellness journey or seeking to enhance it with mindful movement.
This ancient practice, often called “meditation in motion,” uses slow, flowing movements and deep breathing to help cultivate balance, flexibility, and inner calm. It’s a powerful yet accessible way to stay active, manage stress, and support physical and emotional health.
Our instructors are experienced, attentive, and passionate about helping each participant discover the personal benefits of this time-honored art. From your very first class, you’ll feel welcomed, supported, and inspired to return.
Our gentle, low-impact classes offer a wide range of physical, mental, and emotional benefits. Here’s what you can expect when you join us:
Improved Balance and Stability
The slow, controlled movements help strengthen the muscles of the legs and core, improving your ability to stand tall, walk with confidence, and reduce the risk of falls.
Increased Flexibility
Stretching and flowing postures gently open the joints and muscles, improving range of motion and reducing stiffness—especially helpful for older adults or those with mobility issues.
Stress Reduction
With its combination of deep breathing, intentional movement, and meditative focus, this practice is highly effective in relieving tension and calming the nervous system.
Enhanced Strength and Endurance
Although the exercises are gentle, they engage all major muscle groups. Over time, you’ll build strength, stamina, and better muscular control without strain or injury.
Cardiovascular Support
Regular attendance can help support heart health by promoting circulation, lowering blood pressure, and encouraging a more active lifestyle.
Better Coordination and Body Awareness
Movements are performed with precision and intention, increasing your awareness of posture, alignment, and coordination in everyday life.
Relief from Joint Pain
If you experience discomfort from arthritis or chronic joint stiffness, this low-impact form of exercise can promote healing and greater ease of motion.
Increased Mental Clarity and Focus
The calm, deliberate pace encourages mindfulness, sharpening your concentration and improving your overall sense of presence and awareness.
This class is thoughtfully designed to meet the needs of all individuals, regardless of age or experience. No prior knowledge is required. Every session includes step-by-step instruction and modifications to ensure that each person can participate fully and safely.
Whether you’re seeking to enhance your physical health, manage stress, or simply try something new, you’ll find this practice to be as rewarding as it is relaxing.
There’s no better way to understand the benefits than to experience them for yourself. That’s why we offer a free trial class for all new students. It’s your opportunity to connect with your body, clear your mind, and try one of the most effective wellness practices available today.
Located conveniently in Yorkville, Upper East Side, our studio is a peaceful, welcoming space where you can move at your own pace, breathe deeply, and leave feeling refreshed.
