Flow:
In these classes the focus is on each breath linked with a movement.
The postures “flow” together allowing your practice to feel more like a
dance. The consistent movement can benefit students who suffer from
stiff joints and anyone else who struggles to hold poses for an
extended period of time. There tends to be less detailed instruction in
favor of the rich continuity of quiet, focused flow.
Slow Flow:
focuses on alignment and techniques, as well as to breathe flow,
relaxation, and meditation skills. Deep breathing provides great
relaxation and creates a great deal of the “flow” experienced in this
class. Great for anyone, whether you’re new to yoga or just want to
focus on depth of breath and alignment.
Foundational:
Start here for detailed instructions on principles for healthy
alignment with simple exercises and movement. Here you learn how to
work with your body with precision and insight, while developing an
understanding of the asanas and their variations.
Yin Yoga:
A gentle practice targeting the connective tissues of the hips, pelvis,
and lower spine. Passive postures are held for 3-5 minutes so that the
muscles can release and connective tissues and joints can open. Deep
breathing and relaxation are emphasized. This type of practice
complements other active styles of yoga and creates new depth in
postures, deeper range of motion, and increased circulation.
Yin/Yang:
A combination of Yin and Slow Flow. The first half of the
class we practice yin postures to open connective tissues and
connect with the breath. The second half of the practice focuses on
slowly flowing through postures to feel energized, open, focused. Great for beginners!
Ashtanga:
The traditional form that all other styles of vinyasa, power, and flow
are derived from. It is an athletic and physically demanding form of
yoga. Ashtanga classes always follow the same set sequence of poses to
create a powerful cleansing heat that detoxifies and strengthens the
body while calming the mind. Variations and modifications will be
offered.
