About Us
"An effective human being is a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts."Ida P. Rolf
“Yoga is for everyone. You do not need to be an expert or at the peak of physical fitness to practice the asanas…The strain of modern life can lead to physical pain or illness, as our bodies’ well being is neglected in the race for material success. The stress of modern life can also lead to mental suffering like feelings of inadequacy, isolation or powerlessness. Yoga helps integrate the mental and the physical plane…By attending to the mental and spiritual side of yoga, a sincere student becomes like a smoothly flowing river…every asana refreshes your life force with new energy each time you practice it." B.K.S. Iyengar

Grace & Peace Yoga
“Dear Friend, I hope all is well with you and that you are
as healthy in body as you are strong in spirit. ”3 John 1:2
Hatha Yoga stresses wellness of the body and soul through the use of postures and purposeful breathing, self examination and meditation. Christian Yoga follows all of the same principles and allows our focus and center to be on Christ. The Yoga community and Yoga Alliance embrace and accept all who come to the practice of yoga looking for health and spiritual growth. One of the most beautiful aspects of Yoga is that it is a personal practice and a personal journey. Please join us to experience for yourself the grace and peace of Christ centered yoga. You can
