Healflow Yoga, Qigong and Mat Pilates

with Ivor Edmonds of Sága

Ivor’s “Healflow Yoga” class is a trauma-informed/trauma-sensitive gentle slow Vinyasa flow that works its way up and down the body using carefully selected postures to target the twelve major organs and promote natural and healthy function from the inside out.

Ivor’s Qigong classes promote balance, alignment, structural strength, circulation, longevity and mindfulness.

Ivor’s Mat Pilates classes follow a series of exercises from within the Pilates Method founded by Joseph Pilates in the early 1900s that focus on postural alignment, breathing, core stability, controlled, targeted movement and flexibility, challenging students’ muscles to strengthen from the core out.

All are available in group classes (see here) or private sessions (see here). Learn more about Ivor, including how to contact him, below.
