Frequently Asked Questions

  • No. Flexibility develops with consistent practice. Gentle yoga focuses on alignment and controlled movement so mobility improves gradually and safely over time.

  • Gentle Flow offers steady, guided movement with clear cueing and alignment focus. Yin Yoga uses longer-held postures to support flexibility and connective tissue mobility — it is slower and more meditative.

  • Gentle yoga provides structured, alignment-based instruction designed to support joint protection and controlled transitions. If you are under medical care, consult your provider before starting.

  • Every pose has modifications and alternatives. Our teachers will guide you to what works for your body. No comparison, no pressure — just clear, supportive instruction.
