FAQ
Welcome to the frequently answered questions page from yoga teacher Ann Kenney who teaches yoga classes in the Crowthorne area. If you have a question which is not answered here please drop me your question from my contact Ann page. Thank you.
What is yoga?
Yoga is a five thousand year old physical and philosophical system designed to improve a person on all levels. Yoga is a Sanskrit word which means ‘union’. Yoga is concerned with uniting the elements of body, mind and intellect to provide a fulfilled way of living.
Yoga is a safe re-energising form of exercise which builds a firm foundation of health. Constant practice improves concentration, strength, flexibility, circulation, burns excess fat and aids deep relaxation.
I am not fit or flexible, will yoga be suitable for me?
The wonderful thing about yoga is that you can start from where you are now. Yoga is non-competitive, each posture is practised to the best of that person’s ability. Each posture can be adapted to suit the individual.
What should I wear and bring to a yoga session?
Wear comfortable non-restrictive clothing such as sports trousers or shorts and a t-shirt. Yoga is always practised with bare feet. If you have your own mat, bring it. Bring a blanket if you have one to cover yourself for relaxation. I have a limited number of mats available for newcomers
