Yoga classes are good practice

Wednesday, February 16, 2011 — Issue 88

Yoga can be practiced in your home at your convenience once you have learned the basic poses, but a class gives you invaluable instruction and positive reinforcement. If done incorrectly, for example, a yoga pose can do more harm than good. Classes are good places to meet people and socialize as well. 

Yoga classes are available in countless settings, from community centers to churches to teachers' homes. There are several businesses in Windham County that specialize in yoga as well, including:

• Bhava Yoga Center (www.bhavayoga.com): 802-254-2027; 21 Elliot St., 2nd Floor, Brattleboro.

• The Yoga Center at Solar Hill (www.solarhillyoga.com; [email protected]): 802-257-1926; 229 Western Ave., Brattleboro

• Jane LoMonaco's EmbodyPilates and Embodyoga/Pilates Classes (www.brattleboropilates.com; [email protected]): 802-254-8377.

• Brattleboro School of Dance: 22 High St., Brattleboro.

• Some Like it Hot (www.hotyogavt.com): 802-387-3352; 118 Main St., Putney.

Erin O'Connor comes to the Brattleboro-based nonprofit with a deep and diverse resumé, with more than 20 years in secondary and higher education.
