Yoga, as we teach it, is a system of health and nutrition maintenance that is long lasting and cultivates a sense of happiness and fulfillment.  We can help you to achieve this by teaching  you how to tap into inner energy reserves and generate health and happiness from within.  True happiness is a result of a daily investment in health.  Through a regular practice we can help you to counter general physical decline due to ageing, negligent use of the body, and/or the accumulation of excess tension.


Our Yoga methods meet you where and when you need it.  Our sessions give you more overall comfort in the body and the mind, improves the posture, encourages deeper breathing, balances energy, improves concentration, and nurtures a sense of inner calm. 

The focus of this yoga practice is on breath and spinal aligning postures  for better health, mental clarity, and inner peace.  The benefits of these balanced routines are numerous.  The body can be used with increased energy, flexibility, ease and awareness, to allow the internal workings of the body to function optimally. 

Through consistent practice  with our programs  will lead you to delayed aging, increased energy and a remarkable zest for life.

Our Instructor, Bruce Cable, has been practicing and teaching yoga since 1990.  He has taught in Germany, Austria, Canada and in the US.  His classes enhance flexibility, counteract stress and increase energy through the Sivananda style of hatha yoga.  This style emphasizes frequent relaxation and full, yogic breathing.




Our Instructor, Brenda Ellis, has been practicing and teaching yoga since 2006.  She's certified in several areas of group fitness and has graduated from IT'S YOGA! STUDIO INC. Teacher Training Institute. 

Brenda teaches in the Hatha Yoga tradition, especially Vinyasa, and has been influenced by BKS Iyengar and Anusara methods.  She believes that students begin a Yoga practice in order to restore and strengthen the body.  As they transform their bodies those who continue their practice receive Yoga's most important gift - a renewed spirit.




   "When we are not seeking excitement, life becomes exciting in a very deep way.  It is joy without excitement.  Then when excitement comes, it is not like a rushing river but like deep still water.  There is hardly any movement on the surface."
