Welcome to Soul Strong Yoga — your friendly home for starting yoga.
If you’ve ever thought, “I’m not flexible enough for yoga,” or “I wouldn’t know where to start,” you’re in the right place. Our beginner classes are designed for people brand new to yoga, returning after time away, or simply looking for a slower, more supportive pace.
We’ll guide you step-by-step, with plenty of encouragement, modifications, and space to explore your practice at your own comfort level.
Why Start Yoga?
Yoga is really about meeting yourself exactly where you are right now. Whether you want to improve your flexibility, find a little more calm, or simply try something new, yoga offers benefits for both body and mind. With a consistent practice, you will enjoy:
- More strength and flexibility (without the gym grind)
- Better balance and posture (yes, even at your desk)
- Less stress and more calm
- A boost in energy and focus
- That amazing “ahhh” feeling after class
What to Expect in a Beginner’s Class
Our certified, compassionate instructors will guide you through foundational poses, proper alignment, and simple breathing techniques. We move at a steady, accessible pace and offer plenty of modifications so you can practice in a way that feels safe and supportive for your body. Classes include:
- Gentle warm-ups to prepare your body
- Basic yoga postures
- Breathwork to connect mind and body
- Guided relaxation to help you leave class feeling refreshed and renewed

She now enjoys guiding slower, mindful practices, encouraging students to explore the connection between breath and movement. With a playful approach, Kelly makes yoga accessible to all, fostering an environment where students can experience both flexibility and strength.
