Focusing on simultaneous breath and movement will help the body flow in and out of asanas (poses) quite easily and will eventually get your strength and mobility comfortable in exploring a Level 1.5 class.

 

POWER VINYASA

In turn, our Power Vinyasa will help the mind connect with the body, relieving stress and anxiety, while simultaneously challenging your muscles.

HATHA

Hatha is a great class to learn the fundamentals of proper alignment as well as a starting place in the yoga journey This class is suitable for any level of student.

​

YIN

Yin yoga is a beautiful compliment to the more yang (active) styles of yoga such as vinyasa. Through long held floor stretches we focus on cultivating deep release not only in the physical body, but the energetic body as well. Postures are typically held anywhere from two to six minutes, and students are encouraged to relax and surrender into the postures to target the deep connective tissue of the body. Focusing on stillness, pranayama (breath), and meditation, yin offers students a profoundly deep and rewarding experience. This is a great practice for those looking to relax, increase their joint mobility, improve their flexibility, or as a balance to more rigorous forms of exercise. This practice is suitable for all levels.

​

YIN SLOW FLOW

Combining Hatha and Yin Yoga into one class, Slow Flow with Yin works to build heat that helps to strengthen and detoxify, followed by cooling poses to calm the mind and relax the body. Through the Hatha portion we will strengthen and stretch our larger muscle groups with a combination of static poses and dynamic movement. Afterwards, we will cool down and target the deeper connective tissue with longer held Yin postures. This class is highly beneficial for those looking for balance in their yoga practice as well as those looking to relax, build strength, and improve flexibility. This practice is suitable for all levels.

​

DEEP STRETCHING 

This class is suitable for all levels as flexibility is a completely personal journey. Every so often our vinyasa classes will be replaced with a deep stretching class to balance out the strain we put on our muscles and give them a break! Working on flexibility is vital in keeping our bodies healthy and strong, but don't be fooled, this will not be a break. Prepare to be sweating and breathing through the sequence like any other class (although the intensity will be what you make it). Know your limitations walking in, respect them and try to challenge yourself in small, safe steps along the way.
