Join the TC Fit team as we feature September Yoga classes and workout from “Om.” Yoga offers a mental and physical reset for our bodies. The practice of yoga can be modified to a variety of fitness levels and is a great option for people returning to exercise or those of us needing a movement break during our workday. With regular practice yoga can help increase our stamina, strength, and flexibility. 

Yoga: Safety first when exercising from home!

• Start slowly and progress sensibly. If you have underlying health conditions consult your physician before starting any new workout routine.
• Create an open area in your home. The space should allow you to extend your arms and legs in every direction and allow you to step both forward and backward.
• Exercise on a non-slip surface. Use a yoga mat or non-slip slipper socks for yoga. Wear athletic shoes when completing traditional or high-intensity exercises.
• Many yoga and workout routines can be completed using only your body weight. Or keep a yoga block, bolster, or yoga strap nearby for assisting poses and stretches.
• Check out this TC Fit resource page for additional home exercise props and equipment purchase suggestions.
