Whether you’re new to yoga classes or a skilled practitioner, we invite you join our classes. Under the expert guidance of Dr. Virginia Russell, you’ll receive instruction in various yoga styles. In our peaceful, infrared-heated studio, we’ll focus on joints and ligaments, toning muscles, and strengthening the core. Overall, here’s what you can expect when you join Heal Yoga:
- Yoga Classes For All. We offer yoga classes for people of all abilities and body types. From seniors to young people to those with injuries, we work to personalize your practice. Above all, we want to make you feel welcome!

I like the way Virginia accepts everyone for themselves, including their abilities, size, and age. She's always willing to offer or demonstrate variations of poses or stretches if needed while encouraging each person to do what is available to them. Her enthusiasm is contagious.

I am so glad I found Heal Yoga. When I first started I couldn't stretch much and pretty much always fell out of the balances pose but everyone was really supportive and encouraging. I especially liked the instructor telling me more than once to remember it is yoga practice, not yoga perfect.
