Yoga is a light, which once lit will never dim. The better your practice, the brighter your flame." - B.K.S. Linegar
On My Mat Yoga is located in a small, second floor studio at 1309 E. McMillan in East Walnut Hills, Cincinnati, Ohio. Like a tree house, it is full of natural light with views of the sky and treetops. See full class schedule here.

Tips For Your Yoga Practice
from YogaJournal.com
​
Aim for patience and self-love- not perfect poses- and use these strategies as you build your confidence.
​
1. Keep your eyes on your own mat! Watching more experienced yogis in an all-level class can be discouraging. Your instructor, your body, and your breath are your most valuable teachers.
​
2. Use props to help poses feel safer and more accessible. For example, place blocks under your hands in Low Lunge, Triangle, and Warrior Pose III.
​
3. Use your own body to modify poses. For example, try placing your knees on your mat in Plank or Chaturanga.
​
4. If you never test your limits, you'll never learn what they are. Practice with a courageous heart and seek the challenge in every pose, every practice, every meditation.
​
5. Consistency is the key to progress. Start small and build a steady and committed practice. Gradually increase the length and frequency of your practice.
