A fun class where students learn the basics of meditation and practice specific words in yoga. There are not yoga studios in this area that offer Bilingual or fully Spanish classes. Yoga es Vida does! You could for sure slowly learn and pick up all the names, but it is very hard to pay attention to new words when you are already focusing on your body and working on the breathing. This class provide a fun way to practice yoga and learn a list of common terms you’ll most likely encounter at a yoga session such as sun salutations, child pose, mountain pose, cat and cow pose, down dog pose, etc.

Una clase divertida donde los estudiantes aprenden los conceptos básicos de la meditación y practican palabras específicas en yoga. No hay estudios de yoga en esta área que ofrezcan clases bilingües o completamente en español. ¡Yoga es Vida lo hace! Seguro que podrías aprender lentamente y captar todos los nombres, pero es muy difícil prestar atención a las palabras nuevas cuando ya te estás enfocando en tu cuerpo y trabajando en la respiración. Esta clase proporciona una forma divertida de practicar yoga y aprender una lista de términos comunes que probablemente encontrará en una sesión de yoga, como saludos al sol, postura del niño, postura de la montaña, postura del gato y la vaca, postura del perro boca abajo, etc.
