Out of shape? We have classes that are gentle enough to gradually increase flexibility and strength. Already strong and flexible? We have classes that will keep you in shape and, for most people, will improve physique and muscular control. We aim to provide quality mind-body exercise classes at prices that allow you to make mind-body exercise a regular part of your life. Variety keeps workouts fresh, fun, and effective. Find something you enjoy. When we exercise MINDFULLY, with awareness and acceptance, without forcing, we tap into an ever present harmony that surrounds us and permeates us . . . we tap into an energy that refreshes our bodies and minds. "Not a fancy place, but the classes are outstanding." - Bakersfield Californian. Mind-Body Exercise Studio began January 1997 with daytime classes taught by Deb McCormack at CENTERSTAGE downtown Bakersfield. October 1998, the studio moved to its own space, 2721 Alta Vista Drive, in northeast Bakersfield (la Cresta area), where we remain. About 5 years ago C.J. set up our web-site. In 2005 Noxo Cordero started teaching classes at the studio, and now Summer 2008, other teachers gather together in this space to offer an eclectic, exciting mix of mind-body exercise. In addition to our expanded menu of classes we are honored to become the home of two schools - Kern County School of Yoga: Trainings,workshops & classes to support advanced practitioners and the general advancement of yoga in Kern County. Mind & Body Martial Arts: Hapkido & Tae Kwon Do. Training in self defense, competitive sports, acrobatics, weaponry, & grappling. Children to adults.
