COME TAKE YOGA WITH ME!!!!
not because I am trying to get rich...I gave up that dream long ago(I was 5yrs old), but literally cause I want real bodies and minds of people I know and love to join me in exploring what this "yoga" thing is that I will be real-deal certified in in May(whatever that means). I just want to try to keep it real and sincere! The last thing I'd want to do is turn into a crazed yogi who says funny Sanskrit words that all translate to "SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!!) If I ever post a picture of myself in a pretzel pose on facebook, somebody kill me.

About my class:
Christina Gesualdi teaches a gentle Vinyasa yoga class that suits beginners and intermediate practitioners. We will practice softening the mind, releasing the muscles, and sorting out patterns of holding and tension. We will use the breath to guide our movement as we explore our range of motion, alignment, and balance. We will be curious and figure out how we can tailor yoga postures and sequences to fit our own bodies. Christina has experience teaching yoga and stretch classes at various fitness facilities in Philadelphia. She is a graduate of University of the Arts where she received a BFA in modern dance and studied exercise science and anatomy and physiology. Since then, she has continued studying body-mind techniques such as Tai Chi Chuan in Taiwan and contact improvisation. A resident of Fishtown and a prior resident/lover of South Philly, Christina is excited to begin teaching students from this wonderful community.
