yoga instructor and

been conducting classes in
the Halton Hills and Caledon areas since 1996.
Sherry is acertified by Lotus Palm School

Hatha Yoga is a 5000 year old system
of personal growth that deals with strength, health
and well-being of the total person - body, mind and
spirit. It is a philosphy, a way of living more fully,
not a religion. The practice combines physical exercise,
in the form of asanas (postures), with awareness, concentration,
and relaxation techniques. Students leave their class
feeling strong, toned, stretched, relaxed, and centered.
Kripalu
Yoga lead by Caroline F. Butson
Yoga Instructor
Artist & Reiki Master
Artistic Director, The Tree of Life Centre
Caroline will be leading our Kripalu
Yoga sessions. She has been practicing Kripalu Yoga
since 1984 and teaching since 1987.
Kripalu Yoga
Kripalu, meaning compassion, combines gentle yoga postures with breathing techniques
and a focused, compassionate attitude towards oneself during practice.
This combination is used as a vehicle for finding energy blocks in the
body that create imbalance or even disease and releasing physical tensions.
Kripalu teaches self-acceptance by being present in the moment and accepting ‘what
is’. Really being where we are in a yoga posture, rather than straining
towards some imagined ideal is the gentleness of the Kripalu approach.
