History of Health in Motion

Health in Motion has been providing professional training and certifications for over ten years in the fields of natural fitness, personal training, pilates, and yoga. Throughout all of these courses we have been proud to share the philosophy of yoga in a way that is user-friendly, and easy to understand. It has been a pleasure to help people comprehend the connections and correlations between western and eastern sciences, philosophies, and methods of teaching healthy lifestyles.

Philosophy, Ethics & Lifestyle:

Through the practice of journaling, sharing, and creative expression we will truly embark on the practice of svadhyaya (self-study), yamas (interactions with our community and the world) and niyamas (personal discipline). Participants will adapt a yogic lifestyle at their own pace and in their own unique way through gradual introductions of options, and self-directed paths of interest.
