Mind & Body
Classes
By emphasizing the mind-body connection, Yoga and Pilates both promote “mindful movement.” These classes develop focus and concentration while simultaneously allowing the body to relax and relieve stress. Our pilates and yoga classes in Whitefish both increase flexibility, strength, and balance. Both can result in long, lean muscles, combined with truly functional fitness. Qigong and Easy Tai Chi attract the student looking for rejuvenation and stress relief.
