A multi-level class that highlights a gentler style of Yoga practice. It is performed at a slower pace, with less intense positions, and usually includes extended time for meditation, yogic breath work, and relaxation.
This class is perfect for those new to yoga or those who would like a more instructional class that focuses on foundational poses and breathing techniques. You can expect clear, easy to follow guidance throughout this class with pose breakdowns to help you learn vocabulary, and understand dynamics and alignment.
A multi-level class that begins with the dawn of a new day. Wake up with the sun as you progress from gentle movement into Sun Salutations and beyond.
A yoga practice that truly elevates - we begin with traditional yoga centering, grounding, and exploration to slowly lift our poses off the floor and into the swing.
This class builds on the Yoga basics and offers a wider variety of poses with less time spent on foundations and more time to explore movements and breath techniques.
These Yoga classes are meant to challenge you to try more complex and intricate asana, pranayama, and meditation. With little instruction focused on foundations, we instead spend more time learning new, challenging sequences.
A floor-based Yoga class focused on exploring longer-held poses to increase strength and flexibility. Discover how pose shape, muscle engagement or lack thereof, and your breath, can deepen the stretch you feel in your practice. This class can create inner quiet, stillness, and reflection - all qualities of Yin - the moon, feminine, inner aspects of each individual.
A floor-based practice catering to the nervous system and restoring balance to mind, body, and spirit. You will feel supported in a variety of longer-held, more passive Yoga postures, with the help of props (blankets, bolsters, straps) and a comforting atmosphere that encourages meditation throughout your poses.
A unique Yoga tradition that uses chanting (songs and mantra), repetitive yoga movement with your breath, and meditation practices to get in touch with your inner personal energy source. Awaken the chakras and strengthen your energy field with this practice.
A journey of progressive relaxation to help bring you to a state of total rest while enjoying a dream like yogic sleep. We begin this practice with movement to warm the joints and tissues of the body and then settle into a Shavasana-like pose with creature comforts (blankets, pillows, bolsters) for a guided relaxing meditation.
