Just did one of the stellar Library Videos available. As with all their available recorded classes, it was exactly what I needed and wanted -
1. Because I got to CHOOSE my class and time to practise.
2. Centered Withins instructors are truly remarkable!! Engaging, well trained in their unique, specialized practice and passionate about their profession. Highly recommend Centered Within and the video library route is the perfect way to try them out anytime! They have awesome classes to chose from.

Like with every class, today’s was equally as amazing. I was so grateful that in particular we targeted areas in my leg that were so stuck and painful and it felt so relieving. I crave this training now and need it back in my life again, every single day.

I have been going to Centered Within Yoga since it opened five years ago. I love everything about it! It has been life-changing for me, to discover therapeutic yoga, and to put it into practice. My neck and shoulder injuries have healed dramatically, I appreciate my body for everything it does for me, and I have better posture now in my 50's, than I have had in the first half of my life. I know that I will always include therapeutic yoga as part of my self care for the rest of my days. This studio is amazing, you will love it!
