“Svaroopa®” is pronounced “svah-roo-pah”. The word comes from the ancient yoga text called Patanjali's Yoga Sutras. “Svaroopa®” means your true self. “Svaroopa®” Yoga is one of the primary styles of hatha yoga in America known for its compassionate approach to practicing yoga for each person’s unique body, making it available for beginners through experienced yogis.

Not just a physical practice for the body, “Svaroopa®” Yoga allows your mind as well as your body to decompress and unwind, offering a powerful tool to improve mental clarity, focus and calmness.

Each class begins in Shavasana (yoga's relaxation pose), with a guided body awareness followed by a breathing practice that boost the immune system, while calming the nervous system, preparing you for a slow-mindful yoga practice. Each yoga pose has been carefully selected in sequence to provide you with a safe reliable release of core tension. Step by step instructions along with selected propping for each unique body is used for a yoga experience that is effective and reliable. Each class ends with a deep relaxation to integrating the benefits of your practice. The benefits of each class are immediately felt but the accumulative effect of each practice has a lasting effect on all levels, mind, body and more.

More than ever, slow, mindful Svaroopa® yoga is helping us to heal. And that's because these slow, mindful practices train your nervous system to:

Build resilience
Adapt to stressors
Develop greater patience
Improve overall health and well-being
Let go of fear and anxieties

A few things to know about the practice. The emphasis is on releasing tensions in the core of your body. We use the yoga poses to target these specific tight areas from the bottom to the top of your spine, making it very beneficial for people with back and hip tension or discomfort, neck, shoulder or body stiffness, those experiencing stress, and for beginner or experienced yogis that want to gain the physical, mental and spiritual benefits from this unique practice.

Please note: Women in their first trimester of pregnancy or students with an organ transplant should contact Rhonda before starting a Svaroopa® Yoga practice.
