We welcome those who may not be naturally strong or flexible and may not feel comfortable in a Yoga class or Studio at first. We welcome those who choose to practice at Hometown Yoga Lambertville because they are inspired by and trust our teachers and/or they want to support local teachers and their own community, and they feel better each time they leave.
