With so-many Yoga classes out there, why this one?

Mindful, non-competitive Yoga – it’s not about the contortions.

Would you like to feel better?  become more flexible, build strength, lose weight, shed stress, rebalance your life, or bring depth to your existing Yoga practice?

Yoga, when practiced in a mindful way, can help us reach these goals, and much more. We gather for practice 5 times a week in Concord.

The good news is that with Yoga, you start to feel better right away.

Not just for the fit and flexible, This is mindful, flowing Yoga, lots of breath, and just the right mix of mind, body, and spirit. A validating practice, You are encouraged to move at your own pace, and adapt the postures to meet where you are starting from.

If you can breathe, you can do this Yoga.

Not too hard, not too easy… All levels and beginners welcome. Not at-all new age-y, but real. Very grounded and peaceful.

“A welcome change from body – obsessed Yoga, I love this class.” -S

Many studies have shown the physical benefits of Yoga: balance – strength – flexibility – core stability – lower blood pressure – better sleep – weight loss. but there is much more happening here.

Yoga brings a deep and lasting sense of wellbeing that just doesn’t happen with conventional exercise. Yoga balances mind, body, and spirit. We feel more whole again…. Connected, confident and resilient. We take this peacefulness with us, out into our lives.

Do you wake up energized, optimistic, and looking forward to your day?

People love this Yoga. Check out the Testimonials page to see what students have to say about this heart-centered practice.

“Thank you John, Sunday morning Yoga is just magical, the community that is growing around you is amazing.”

    Hi John, I wanted to let you know that after the two yoga classes I took back to back with you last week, I slept really, really soundly. Then, the next day when I was teaching art to my middle school students, I felt so high and giddy and I wondered if it had to do with all the oxygen I had taken in and the lack of tension in my body!! Best, Angela

    Hello John I am interested in getting back into a yoga practice. I have not practiced in a while ( couple of years now). It used to be so important to me,,,I benefited so much,,lower blood pressure,self confidence,and a general overall well being and happiness.,and for one reason or another drifted away. Well, I made a pact with myself that this summer and fall I would show up at YNFL and start a regular weekly yoga practice habit. Yipeee! I might want to take the Sunday,9:00 and also one of your other gentle/easy/flow classes. thanks,,,and will be in touch soon,,,if not send me an e-mail reminding me of my pledge!!!! Will also try to get my husband to come around as well,,,maybe even my son! Thanks Ellen S. (Lauren's,Nimai's,J.D class etc.. friends)

    Hi John,
        This is Naomi..we met at Soni Yoga last weekend after kirtan, talked about harmoniums and I tried the two styles out. I was hoping you would be able to guide me in the direction of someone I could purchase a harmonium from (the same style as yours but the larger size). I wasn't able to open your email link, so it would be great if you could send me an email.

                                                                Namaste, Naomi

    Hi John,
    I am looking for a Harmonium teacher in Boston. Also interested in a harmonium workshop. I’d love a couple recommended teachers.
    Kind Regards, Nina

  23. admin’s avatar

    Hi Nina, I would suggest that you contact Irene Solea, hopefully she can give you a few lessons. Or come out to our open mic night in west concord, (once a month) and we learn from each other.

    hope you’re well, and thanks for your note.

  24. MaryAnn Higgins’s avatar

    Hi John,
    Do you have any recommendations for a gifted Yogi like yourself in the Methuen area?
    A very Dear friend of mine is willing to try yoga out, however she is not the type to try several classes in order to find the right one. My friend has been through a lot of losses and is not interested in the high paced yoga, and is willing to try the slow meditative yoga that I have been to in your class, and Elena’s class. Any referrals would be greatly helpful and gratefully appreciated. Thank You for your time,

  25. admin’s avatar

    Hello MaryAnn, I will ask around for you… appreciate your kind words about my teaching. I do my best and am glad that it works for so many… that means I get to keep going. I do sub-teach and offer workshops up that way occasionally, I can let you know? But mostly I teach Yoga in the West Concord area.

    Thanks again,

    -john

  26. Emily’s avatar

    First timer to your class last night. I very much appreciated the depth and flow of your teaching style. Feeling great last night and today. Thank you so much.
    Om,
    Emily
    Hope to be back soon.

  27. admin’s avatar

    Hi Emily, thanks for joining us, and for your kind words. I’m in my 10th year teaching that Thursday night Yoga class in West Concord. If you’d like something a little mellower, come at 4pm instead… or the Sunday am class is really sweet too.

    Thanks again for saying hello,

    -john

  28. admin’s avatar

    namaste! we’re talking about restarting the West Acton Yoga class on Monday mornings, please let me know if you are up for Acton Yoga. In the meantime, classes are in our tenth year in cozy West Concord, just a couple miles away.
