Dru Yoga

Dru Yoga

Dru yoga is soft and meditative and heals by engaging the heart & activating the Anahata Chakra (heart centre). It is made up of therapeutic movements creating a sequence to heal the body, mind, emotions and spirit. The thymus gland which is located very close to the heart is the foundation of the immune system, as you nourish your heart with Dru yoga movements your heart will stimulate the thymus gland which will deeply heal your entire being and strengthen your immune system.

Dru yoga is soft, graceful and relaxing focusing on flowing movements and visualization. Dru works with the subtle energies of the body, the chakras are approached with awareness and gently rather and forcefully.
