Why the Hummingbird?

The hummingbird or the “flying jewel” is a powerful symbol of health, vitality, renewal, and guidance. The tiniest of all the birds, it is playful, energetic and free spirited. The hummingbird buzzes from flower to flower whispering a special message of joy and love, its delicate wings fanning out healing energies. Life is so beautiful when we enjoy the sweet nectar of life and buzz with energy like a hummingbird!

What is yoga?
Yoga is an ancient and balancing system of movement, awareness and meditation that is designed to give you a “hands on” experience of your highest consciousness. Yoga strengthens the nervous system and balances the glandular system for optimum physical and emotional health. Breathing techniques (pranayama) help in processing emotions and feelings, relieving stress, and developing concentration. Mantra and sound meditation techniques work to direct and discipline the mind while connecting the practitioner with joy and relaxation. The practice of yoga offers powerful tools for developing one’s own higher consciousness and increasing well-being, vitality, and an attitude of gratitude.

“"I rush to get to her classes..."

I rush to get to her classes, no matter how I’m feeling, as i know I’m going to feel better after. Whether it’s a more active set or more meditative, i leave feeling amazing! She makes every single student feel special and welcome from beginners to the seasoned practitioners. Her passion exudes in everything that she does. She makes sure that she explains everything and never makes anyone feel like they can’t do something. Her loving, caring, sharing ways go above and beyond what i ever thought a teacher would be. Inspirational, kind, passionate, loving, these all describe Sukhmani.
