Yoga Fusion with Joni
click here for full scheduleJoni’s students enjoy a balance and complete class with proper technique and format. Yoga has added a new dimension to all her fitness instruction allowing your practice to be a refuge and a tool for responding creatively to change all the while emphasizing the enjoyment and enrichment of life through the benefit of yoga. She believes that the “beginner’s mind” held by students new to yoga is a rich and powerful place wherein the body-mind-spirit connection can be developed. Joni uses a unique blend of music and the natural intelligence of the body to help her students discover how the asanas (postures) and breath work can be suited to their own individual blueprint. Her classes invigorate the body and relax the mind.
“Stress depletes the body’s energy and makes you more susceptible to illness. It may sound cliché, but it is more important now than ever to find your inner peace and reward yourself by stilling your mind and body. The result is a renewed outlook on life and an appreciation for all that is around you, “ Joni explains.
Joni has been one of Cleveland’s most popular and respected instructors. She obtained her RYT (Registered Yoga Teacher) by Jan Hauenstein, a nationally recognized Yoga Instructor and founder of TRY4Life Yoga Teacher Certification School Certified by the Aerobics and Fitness Association of America for the past 20 years, Joni’s classes are unique in that she blends many different styles of fitness and yoga and uses distinctive combinations of music to create a contagious level of energy.
