Yoga for Every Body

Join the QC campus community this Spring for a weekly FREE yoga class, taught by Dr. Andrea Hyde.

What is yoga?

Yoga is a science: an ancient methodology of mind-body-breath exercise that enhances physical and mental health. Yoga can help you achieve a specific goal: physical fitness, mental clarity, relaxation, academic achievement or emotional management. These outcomes have been documented in scientific studies from around the world.

What Style of Yoga?

YogaFit® is based on the ancient fitness science of hatha yoga. It blends balance, strength, flexibility and power in a fitness format. This format is practical, understandable, and doable by individuals at any level of fitness. We will practice yoga breathing and a sequence of standing and sitting asanas (poses), along with some basic stretches and core strengthening exercises. At the end of every class, there will be a period of guided relaxation. Students will learn a basic vinyasa flow which incorporates variations on the Sun Salutation.
