About Us
The Blue Moon is an astronomical phenomenon that occurs once in about a 41-month cycle when two full moons exist in any single month. The second of the two moons is named the Blue Moon, to distinguish it from the first one in that month. The Blue Moon is rare and uncommon.
Blue Moon Yoga & Fitness is founded on being a phenomenon in the fitness world. The practice of yoga is a fun, energizing and revitalizing fitness regime that can be suitable for all ages and fitness levels. The health benefits, however, can reach far beyond the physical level. We offer classes that can restore mobility and flexibility, classes that will challenge and heighten your overall wellness, and opportunities, through the consistent practice of yoga, to change your body, ease your mind, and feed your soul.
Owner and instructor, Karen Underwood, brings over 30 years of fitness experience to the establishment of Blue Moon. Her teaching style is based on the idea that the postures fit the body, rather than the body fit the posture. Every participant has a different body, and has had different experiences that make up that body. Therefore, the practice on the mat is the individual’s yoga signature, so-to-speak. There is freedom to express your practice whether you are a beginner or advanced participant in our classes. Within each class that’s offered, modifications are encouraged, as are advanced variations for those who are ready for more.
The instructors at Blue Moon are all certified in their various traditions, and together share in the goal to help each participant feel comfortable and welcome at our studio. We believe in the importance of honoring yourself on your mat, respecting each other, and in giving to our community. We support various non-profit agencies in our area through highlights and awareness to that agency’s needs. From time-to-time we will have clothing drop-offs and canned food drives, for example.
We strive to make your experience at Blue Moon one that provides you space that is free from mystical symbolism. Find your sanctuary at Blue Moon as we encourage you to embrace the meaning of being created in the image of God. Enjoy your body. Live healthy. Be happy.
We are glad that you are here.
