Orinoco Yoga Classes in Libertyville, IL
Yoga is an ancient Indian practice that unifies mind, body and spirit through body poses, breathing and meditation. Yoga has been shown to reduce stress, improve strength and posture and help alleviate many other health problems. Some common misconceptions about yoga include the belief that you must be very flexible or strong to practice yoga. However, this is not the case. Yoga poses are more about balance and breathing and the gentle transition between poses that create a full body, mind experience. If practiced on a regular basis yoga will help develop strength and flexibility.
Orinoco Fitness offers a variety of styles, each designed to help you relax & achieve balance.

Yoga Flow is a dynamic practice that links movement and breath together in a continuous flow. Yoga Flow will provide full body movement that will get your heart rate up. You’re going to work and definitely break a sweat. Yoga Flow is a total body workout that stimulates your core muscles, tones your arms and helps you burn calories! Beginners are welcome to this practice. All flow sequences are shown with modifications so students of all levels of fitness can participate.
