Mission
The mission of Karuna Center for Yoga & Healing Arts is to create community and promote healing through yoga and the healing arts. We are available to people of all ages, abilities, ethnicities, and genders.
Our Space
Many people have commented on the special quality of our studio space. A 1900 square foot room with maple floors and a 30-foot domed ceiling, it was originally designed by the Freemasons employing sacred geometry. The atmosphere of the room has been enhanced by its many years of use as a space for yoga, healing and meditation. The nature of our space supports the work we do.
We have props available for use and purchase, please bring a sticky mat if you have one.
What is Yoga?
Yoga means union of body, mind and spirit. Many people in the West know of yoga as a collection of physical postures to be performed. In fact, yoga is one of the six major classical Indian philosophies, and it is a method for reducing suffering in all aspects of one's life.
Benefits of Yoga
Yoga has many benefits. It promotes strength, flexibility, healthy breathing, relaxation, a sense of inner peace, increased mental focus, and healing from physical injuries and emotional hurts. Whatever one's primary reason for studying yoga may be, the longer one continues to practice yoga, the more its positive effects deepen, strengthen and multiply, bringing one into closer harmony with one's true nature.
