Yoga for Core Strength with Jelena

Tuesdays, 7:30-8:30pm with  Jelena

The seat of your inner power is your navel center. When your core is strong, your whole body is protected, your skeleton is supported and your spine is sheltered. On a mental level, your self-esteem, self-assurance and self-reliance become stronger. Your projection improves and you gain a magnetic personality. According to Yoga scriptures, the Yogi becomes a master if he or she masters his or her navel. Read More…

“I was introduced to Bliss through a good friend of mine. I mention this because it was her transformation that lead me to try out yoga, which in the past I had dismissed as “not for me”.  My friend was going through a rough time, and the classes at Bliss were providing her a sense of balance and inner strength that she needed.   I was intrigued.
I loved Bliss as soon as I walked in and the relaxed atmosphere, non-competitive and nuturing attitude of the instructors kept me coming back.  I am now on my third session of Jelena’s Core Strengh class.  The class provides an intense practise, challenging yet delivered with Jelena’s calm and experienced guidance.  I love this class for its combination of strengthening the essential core muscles, improving flexibility and balancing the mind. I appreciate how I have improved from session to session, working at my own pace and never feeling pressure go further than I am ready.  I always leave the class with a smile on my face, feeling invigorated and energized.  Thanks Jelena, I look forward to the next session!”
Sincerely, Jody Ridpath
