45-60 Minute Yoga Classes for Beginners and Those with Back Challenges
Yoga classes spanning 45 to 60 minutes are particularly beneficial for beginners as well as individuals dealing with back challenges and chronic pain. The duration provides ample time for gentle warm-up exercises, foundational yoga poses, and a rejuvenating relaxation period. This allows participants to gradually build strength, flexibility, and mindfulness while also catering to the specific needs of those with back issues and chronic pain.

“Hey Don, welcome back! Hope this helped you! Let me know!”
Don – Veteran
“Yes it always helps! I’m similar to you: chronic back pain for 20-30 years, and since I started doing yoga in Tucson and more recently on-line, my back is much better. Not completely gone, but a heck of a lot better!”
Doesn’t get much better than that!
