Gil believes that yoga will improve your overall health and well-being and help you to realize increased flexibility and balance as you build strength, focus and awareness. People of all ages and levels of fitness can do yoga. Physical postures (known as asana in Sanskrit) are a gentle way to improve one’s health by making the body more flexible, enhance muscular strength and improve the functions of circulation, digestion and balance. Open your heart to simple techniques which have enlightened people for centuries and enjoy the stillness of reduced stress, radiant health and restful sleep.
