Hatha
Beginner is a gentle class, providing a thorough
introduction to the basics of yoga, including postures and technique,
breath and awareness, core strength and flexibility, as well as meditation
and relaxation.
Therapeutic
Yoga for the Back is taught from a holistic perspective,
guided by the principle that health goes beyond the physical body,
tapping into the wisdom and intelligence of the whole being. Participants
are inspired to journey into an exploration of the areas of the
body causing discomfort or pain by relaxing into a series of balancing,
strengthening, and flexibility enhancing postures. Students learn
to listen to the messages of the body that manifest in stiffness
or pain, and to employ healing practices into their daily lives. No
experience with yoga necessary.
Therapuetic yoga for backs II: This class is a continuation of Therapeutic Yoga for Backs for students who are ready to move on to a more active practice focused on back safety, core strength, and flexibility, as well as for new students who have minor back issues or stiffness who just need to get more active with a safe, well aligned practice.

Yoga
Flow combines breath and movement to create a
continuous flow from posture to posture to strengthen and stretch,
building a strong foundation for our more advanced flow classes.
It is both invigorating and peaceful, suitable for active beginners.
Yin-Yang Yoga Fusion is about balancing effort with ease. A well-rounded yoga practice is balanced by combining the Yang active aspect of our nature with our receptive Yin qualities, creating a deep integrated practice. Starting with pranayama (breath) and leading into Yang we will explore energizing and heat-building vinyasas (inspired by Vinyasa/Ashtanga yoga). We will then slip into Yin by exploring long slow holds (inspired by Hatha/Restorative yoga), releasing connective tissue, opening the joints and enhancing energy flow and distribution within the body. This class will have you sweating and relaxing. Experience the balance of both!
Back to Top
Yin Yoga is a gentle, slow-moving practice that creates strength and flexibility by lengthening the connective tissue of the body. Connective tissue, also called fascia, is found everywhere in the body and is one of the most difficult tissues to stretch due to its plastic nature. However, supple fascia is vital to good health and general muscular condition. Yin Yoga is an excellent complement to all styles of yoga, and all physical activities or sports. People with tight hip flexors, hamstrings and who have lower back aches will benefit greatly from yin yoga because it will bring space and openness to these tight areas.
Sunrise Yoga In this class, we open our bodies to the new day with an energizing yet mindful yoga practice, fostering strength, flexibility and balance. You’ll leave class feeling refreshed and centered, ready to start your day. All experience levels welcome.

This class brings to light the body's subtle energetic system, providing insight into how yoga techniques affect the chakras, and how imbalances within the chakras (excess or deficiency) can manifest in daily life, including relationships, finances, emotions, self esteem, illness, intuition, and universal connection. Some classes will focus on all of the chakras, while others will highlight one main chakra as a theme for the day.
Revitalize! Yoga Start your weekend right, melting away the stress of your work week with a revitalizing yoga practice! We will begin with gentle pranayama (breathwork) techniques, working up to heating the body through an active and inspiring asana practice set to music.
