Flametree’s reviews, below, show Flametree online classes are highly effective.

First, here’s the overview for non-beginners. This specialist Non-Beginner Only class for Seniors is called “Fifty Plus Focus“. The class teaches easy, non-beginner poses that are entirely suitable for those with the typical situations of the Fifty Plus age group.

Persons who are not yet 50 are welcome to join this Fifty Plus class.

As a non-beginner class, the Fifty Plus Focus class has a range of students who have been doing classes for years, many of whom have an impressive range of skills.

Below, see more about Flametree’s yoga for beginners, or seniors, or those wanting even gentler versions.  In particular, if you want the best value yoga beginners deals, then check out Flametree’s many options.

Flametree’s range of options is a key reason why it’s the best yoga studio that you’ll find. In addition, our students are each a firm believer that Iyengar yoga offers better yoga instruction than styles like hot yoga, vinyasa yoga, yoga nidra, kundalini yoga, or yin yoga.

If you wish, the weekly deals we offer are also more flexible than any monthly membership. Try our in-studio or virtual classes. You’ll get a unique experience in the practice of yoga.

Yoga for seniors & other yoga beginners

Second, if you are a beginner, the best option to get started is to attend some of the many Beginner Level classes mentioned below. For example, we outline the many types of yoga classes we have for any beginners. In addition, they will also suit those beginners over 50, and seniors (depending how you see yourself).

In particular, for both beginners and non-beginners, we recommend our so-called Open Level classes. These include Gentle Classes, Back Neck & Shoulder Classes, and  Restorative Yoga.

Once beginners have done about 6 weeks at the beginner level, they can then also attend this Fifty Plus Focus class. They can also continue to come to the above Open Level classes, as can anyone else, at any time.

In all Flametree’s classes, poses are also further customised for your personal situations.

The teacher will always adjust any class for who is actually in the class on the day. In addition, individual adaptations of poses are given as required.

All classes are both online and in the three Flametree locations in Darwin Australia.

Warrior 2 pose builds strength, flexibility, & focus. Flametree’s beginner’s workshops and classes will get you started with a yoga practice. Even advanced students keep doing some of the basic poses you’ll learn. In addition, if needed, consider a class option such as prenatal yoga.

If you wish, see student Reviews on why they find Flametree among the best studios. As well as the physical benefits, these classes are also a way to have your own wellness center, or personal growth plan.

As well as all that, private classes are just one of the many class packages to consider. But if you want something private, first consider the gentle yoga for seniors. It may work well for you, and is more economical.

Huge benefits for over 50s, for seniors, & anyone

There is now a growing body of evidence that show the many benefits of regular classes. For instance, they reduce the need for prescription drugs, ease pain, reduce stress, boost the immune system, calm the nervous system, help relieve chronic tension, assist the heart, help balance blood sugar levels, and keep the mind sharp. (See also Suza Francina “The New Yoga for Healthy Ageing”).

In addition, if you plan to maximise your so-called “health span”, or longevity, or both, than there is a lot of evidence on how classes can help.

Many believe that once they reach a certain age, these classes are beyond them. That’s a key reason why Flametree offers you the range of class options already mentioned. At almost any age, you can do your first time at Flametree classes.

Yoga classes are a gift

In the same vein, these classes have a great deal to offer the mature or senior person.

As the famous instructor Geeta Iyengar noted:

“Classes are a gift for older people. One who studies it in the later years gains not only health and happiness, but also freshness of mind… since it gives one a bright outlook on life. One can look forward to a more healthful future rather than looking back into the past. It is a rebirth which teaches one to face the rest of one’s life happily, peacefully and courageously“.

For students of all levels, these classes will make a huge contribution to your mental health, and physical health.

In a large number of Flametree yoga classes, props are used. For instance, chairs, blocks, and bolsters are used to help you get the most benefits from each posture. They also make the poses easier and more enjoyable.

However, the poses are still highly beneficial, with as much challenge as you choose to put into them.

A class will have both active and restorative poses in it. As a result, they will leave feeling like you have stretched, got less anxious, and more relaxed.

Check out the links below. They’re excellent options for you to move to what could be a new studio for you.

Classes taught at many do-able levels

Flametree Special Focus classes work well for those with limited mobility.

The key thing is to have a yoga daily routine, using online, in-studio, and / or video classes. In particular, if you want “yoga beginners near me”, or similar, then try the at home options, including with LIVE interactive teacher support.

The benefits of yoga demonstrate it works well for whatever fitness level you have. The best way to prove it is to check out the topics where studies show the yoga’s low-impact exercise makes a huge difference.

Studies show regular yoga practice can greatly help heart disease, lower back pain, issues around range of motion, problems with connective tissues, joint pain, high blood pressure, chronic pain, various physical limitations including around shoulder blades, heart rate variability, and many other chronic conditions.

Flametree runs classes at three locations in Darwin, including Lyons Community Center (Casuarina). Our online or video classes are also a great option.

You’ll learn yoga postures you can do. Most importantly, each will be a great pose for whatever health issues you may have. The health benefits you’ll get from the Flametree fitness center will greatly improve your quality of life.

In particular, the Iyengar yoga you’ll learn is one of the best types of yoga for regular exercise. Among other things, it’s because it’s taught in at least 5 levels, plus Gentle Yoga, Backcare, and more.

In addition, Easy Restorative Yoga classes, including chair yoga classes, are excellent for reducing stress levels. The benefits of chair yoga are built into many Flametree classes.

Learn the right pose for your situation

You’ll start with simple poses like Mountain Pose and modified Tree pose, then move onto to other very simple standing poses (using yoga blocks and the back of the chair).

Simple forward bends will follow, as well as an easy spinal twist. Flametree’s type of yoga is physical activity that anyone can do, including seniors.

Your muscle mass will steadily improve as you get the benefits of regular practice, and more physical fitness. Better sleep is also likely to happen quickly.

Over time, you’ll also notice a better mind-body connection, joint health, stronger abdominal muscles and core strength, reduction of any mobility issues,

Best of all, with this exercise program, the risk of injury is minimal. Among other things, that’s because the teacher will give additional support when needed.

Older men, or anyone, will rapidly feel the benefits of gentle yoga poses, including the long periods of time in do-able floor poses.
