Yoga Nine is a professional
mind-body studio which aims to promote community health by
providing a variety of classes taught by the most highly trained
and experienced teachers. Yoga Nine is dedicated to providing
community outreach through educational programs, volunteer
efforts in our "fair trade store & cafe", Buddha
Body. Yoga Nine engages in a number of community service and
fundraising projects all aimed at supporting local charities.
Our Philosophy:
Above all, life is about enjoyment. Yoga Nine is dedicated to
helping each client achieve their personal goals and improve the quality
of their life in a fun, noncompetitive, and community-centered
environment. Hang out with us. Our facility is designed for
laying back! Our instruction is personalized and
hands-on.
How do we do it?
Yoga Nine provides a full array of classes in Yoga, Pilates,
Body Rolling and other therapeutic modalities. Classes will be
available to all segments of the community no matter their
fitness level; including children and seniors, and those living
with chronic illness, and physical and developmental
disabilities.
Classes: The yoga program
honors many traditions, offering work in a variety of styles
ranging
from meditation, to gentle assisted practice using props (Kripalu
and Iyengar), to more
rigorous styles (Ashtanga, and Vira Vinyasa). Yoga Nine only
employs instructors who are
highly qualified, participate in continuing professional
education, and are all dedicated
students themselves.
Complementary Medicine:
Yoga Nine encourages the growth of a
healthy community. In this effort,
a variety of holistic/alternative services will be made
available through the facility by
appointment. (Nutritional Counseling, Herbal Medicine, Reiki,
Physical Therapy,
Therapeutic body work, Ayurvedic Counseling, etc.)
Community
Outreach: Yoga Nine also seeks to promote community health
through volunteer
outreach programs, fundraising efforts, and educational
programming. Yoga Nine will also
house fundraising efforts for the local community. Our Community
Coffee Campaign
provides ongoing fundraising and volunteer
information for 9 local charities.
Fair
Trade: Yoga Nine will house a "fair trade" store, Buddha
Body featuring products by
local artists and artisans, and others created through
cooperatives around the world
which support impoverished communities. All other yoga props and
clothing sold in the
store are "sweatshop free." We are also a member of
the Green Studio
Association
and make continuing efforts to provide products made
from renewable resources
and organic materials.
