Level 1 is a great starting point if you are brand new to yoga. It’s also an excellent choice if you’re looking for an Active Flow that’s accessible to everyone who is confident coming up and down from the mat. Our Instructors fully explain the Asanas (poses) and we offer options for you to dial up the challenge or dial back the intensity, based on what you’re observing in your body in each moment. These classes give you foundational instructions to Asanas, especially common warm up movements, simple strengthening exercises, and standing poses. We won’t do any complicated shapes or very much weight-bearing in the arms. We build in basic breath techniques, short moments of meditation, and bits of philosophy for a well-rounded practice.
Geneva Jimreivat (she/her)
Read BioGeneva grew up doing yoga, and the practice has always been a comfortable space to which she can return for self-exploration. Geneva holds a B.S. in Kinesiology from the University of Maryland, took her first teacher training with YogaFit in 2018, and completed her 200-hour teacher training at Willow Street Yoga Center in 2019. She believes that when students are given space and support, the yogic principles of steadiness and ease can be realized in all movement, on and off the mat. Her classes bring a blend of breath, introspection, functional movement, and anatomy that will inform your understanding of the physical properties of each position–but most importantly, empower you to recognize and create a personal relationship to your unique yoga practice.
