Restorative Yoga

Relax and renew your body with these well-supported, accessible stretches. In this class, we move slowly, but more deeply into the body, releasing tight muscles, tension and anxiety. Balance your intense workouts with mindful stretching, an opportunity to release and restore body and mind. Focus is placed on bringing ease into the mind.

Yoga Fundamentals

Whether you're new to yoga or you're an experienced practitioner, this class is an opportunity to revisit familiar poses and practice new ones. Explore the fundamental principles that will help you stay safe and enjoy the benefits of yoga for a lifetime. Questions and inquiries are greatly welcome. Postures are explored in detail and movements are slowed down giving space for the body to open.  Flexibility is not a prerequisite!

Vinyasa Flow

An active, empowering and physically challenging practice which conditions the whole body, increasing strength and flexibility.  Rhythmic breathing is synchronized with conscious movement, such that poses smoothly flow one into another, in near-continuous motion.  By integrating breath with motion energy blockages are released and the healthy flow of prana (energy or life-force) throughout the body is optimized.

*Note: Saturday class is a full 75 minutes providing you with just enough extra time to fully restore after a long week.

Power Vinyasa

For those who seek to embody “going with the flow”, this challenging flowing practice synchronizes movement and breath in a room heated to about 80 degrees.
Bring a willing attitude to play, a towel and water and prepare to sculpt, sweat and release toxins.  An intermediate practice but variations are offered for all levels.

Power Yoga

Designed for the athletic individual who is seeking to move with purpose through a dynamic flowing sequence.  This challenging class is ideal for those with some experience who want to take their practice to the next level.  This class is faster-paced with emphasis on strength, core work, and stability.  Modifications are offered so all levels can participate with success. Alignment is explored while laughter is encouraged!

Anusara-Inspired Yoga:

Most of our instructor’s styles are inspired by the teachings of John Friend and the playful, yet alignment-oriented style that Anusara offers to the student. Principles of alignment have been dissected and adapted to communicate “real language” to real people.  Our instructors take pride in teaching outside the box, using principles of alignment that translate into functional movements.

Gentle (Hatha) Yoga

Appropriate for all levels, this class combines safe and gentle movements with proper breathing techniques. You will learn how to find a balance between softness and active engagement in your poses. Students should expect a slower-paced class that emphasizes gently stretching connective tissues and gentle hip openers This class is perfect for beginners as well as people with specific limitations and those recovering from injury.
