The word "yoga" means "to yoke".  This ancient healing practice of Yoga draws our attention inward, through mindful breathing (pranayama) and attention to our body through asana (the poses of yoga).  Through the light-hearted, sangha centered,  therapeutically based practice at healix, students find a new sense of space and ease of being.  The classes are guided skillfully and with humor and human connection by certified yoga instructors Emily Wiadro and Walter Hagedorn.  Here's some of what you can expect from embracing the practice of yoga into your life: 

• Improved posture and balance
• Increased body awareness and strength
• Improved concentration and restful sleep
• Greater flexibility and better range of motion
• Better overall health, energy and vitality
• Natural weight loss
• Lower levels of chronic stress and pain

Perhaps you've been afraid to attend a yoga class, but you are curious.  The safe therapeutic yoga offered at online through healix may be the answer...

"I have been actively trying to arrange my work schedule to attend Emily's classes, because they are so beneficial.  I appreciate several things about these classes-- one is that Emily is incredibly thoughtful about cueing in a way that helps ease into each posture with intention. As someone with some physical issues, I appreciate knowing the intent and alignment that is being sought, and all the places I can stop or modify. I also appreciate that she incorporates the sanskrit terms, English terms, and a decription for each posture. She actively observes us and provides gentle redirection first and then even direct guidance to us individually when needed to help us better access the intent of each posture with what we are showing up with. As a relative beginner, this is so helpful and I feel like I'm growing my understanding of yoga. Finally, Emily somehow transmits connection and healing energy through her classes. When taking her class, you really feel like you are in community and sharing energy with the others practicing. I always leave feeling incredibly grounded and also as if there has been some space clearing inside my body with so much of my tightness lessened; leaving what's no longer needed and taking with me space for what's next. Sometimes, I think the more simple classes really are the most complex and it takes a real teacher to help a class feel this accessible. So happy to have found her class. Much gratitude!"

"I have been practicing yoga for over 20 years and have taken 100s and 100s of classes. I am a Chiropractor and have taught the anatomy and physiology portion of 3 different yoga teacher trainings... I have been taking Emily's classes on-line, two times a week for about 14 months, and my body is transformed into feeling and being MORE open...soft....flexible and strong all at the same time!!   Healix classes are crafted to  allow the body, mind and spirit to open and integrate step by step.... the results are profound.  I am deeply grateful to her and the warm and loving community she has created on-line...."

"You emerge from each class feeling stronger, more relaxed and happy. Within 6 months of coming to her Vinyasa classes, my breathing improved and I found relief from a decade of sinus problems." Mimi M.

"My daughter gave me a gift certificate for a few classes, and when I had finished them, I immediately signed up for more.  The gentle stretches and deep breathing seem to invigorate the entire body, relieving the stress pockets that I normally carry.  I feel as though she incorporates mind, body, and soul in the restful yet challenging movements."  Rachel B.
