This class is a great opportunity for teens to discover the benefits of yoga. If you've ever wanted to learn yoga, or if you already have taken some yoga classes, you'll find this class both rewarding and enjoyable.

"When I started I had no specific expectations for what I wanted to get out of it. My mom had been doing it for some time and encouraged me along with my brother and his girlfriend, to try it out. It was more difficult than I anticipated, but I found that made it even more rewarding. I began to notice improved strength and flexibility that was useful in my everyday life, but more importantly yoga gave me a nice hour and a half every week in which I could concentrate absolutely on myself. During yoga, I am required to think of nothing except what I am doing with my body, leaving no room for any negativity from the events of the day. Yoga is more than a stellar way to improve your health; it is also an extremely enjoyable and therapeutic release."
Allie L., Senior, City High
