By: 0

Jasper will lead the Yoga program at the gym on Friday’s a 4.30. Read below to to learn more about him:

 

Jasper Trout has been pursuing an active, athletic lifestyle from his early years growing up in the Napa Valley. Participating in organized sports and exploring the natural world on hikes and adventures has kept Jasper busy over the years. Nearly fifteen years ago, on the beach in San Francisco, he was exposed to yoga for the first time and taken by its emphasis on a slow, conscious path toward physical, mental and spiritual integration and health. Jasper was trained and certified to teach yoga in 2011. He has been leading outdoor hiking and yoga classes as well as bringing his personal teaching style to students in studios and health clubs in Napa since that time.
Yoga
Yoga, meaning ‘union’, is the practice of integrating the energy and focus of the mind, body and spirit through the process of structured breathing techniques, the physical manipulation of the body into specific yoga ‘asanas’ or ‘poses’, and the quieting of the mind to a meditative state.
Hatha Flow Yoga 
By synchronizing traditional yoga poses with deep breathing and flowing steadily from one pose to the next, a powerful inner fire is created which cleanses the tissues of the body, tones the muscles, quiets the mind and leaves you prepared to face the business of life with clarity and ease.
Hope to see you Friday!
