My name is Cheryl Ritter and I've been practicing Iyengar Yoga for the last 10 years. I love this form of yoga because of its emphasis on correct alignment. When the body is aligned – and it can be, with the use of props -- the student can achieve the pose safely and with a sense of grace. When the mind is given a break from its day-to-day distractions and instead is focused on that alignment, a sense of peace is attained.
I will be using this blog to inform you of upcoming classes, to share tips on beginning a home practice, and to share quotes from people who have inspired and uplifted me in my yoga practice and my life.
I teach yoga classes on Tuesdays from 9:00-10:15 a.m. at the Koloa Neighborhood Center located on the south side of the island of Kauai. Each week we will work on a variety of poses, but with a particular focus: standing poses, forward bends, backbends, inversions and/or restorative poses. Attending class will help you feel the benefits of yoga -- increased strength, stamina, flexibility, and discipline, as well as a sense of well being. Come and enjoy!
