Free samples are a great way to try a new product.

New River Valley Wellness will be offering such a trial this month with two free Yoga lessons Feb. 9 and 13 at Coffee Depot on West Main Street in Christiansburg.

Instructor Thea Vincenti said the lessons will focus on teaching people to listen to their bodies and will include instruction on deeper breathing relaxation, as well as building strength and balance.

She added that without proper instruction, many people have a tendency to push themselves too far and become injured, but the supervision of an experienced professional can prevent that.

A graduate of Blue Ridge School of Massage and Yoga in Blacksburg, Vincent said she has been teaching professionally for more than eight years.

On the other side of the spectrum of experience, this will be the first yoga class offered at Coffee Depot.

Store owner Nikki Foutz said she is excited to host the class and believes the course will mesh well with the health-conscious menu the cafe already offers.

The lesson will begin at 6:15 p.m. and last until 7:30 p.m.

Foutz said the only thing people need to bring is a yoga mat and that all interest levels are welcome.
