Beginner's Yoga:
Whether its been a while since your last yoga class and you are looking to review the basic structure of poses, or whether you are new to yoga and are ready to begin developing your practice, this fun, challenging and supportive class will help you ease into a confident practice.
Vinyasa Yoga:
Literally, Vinyasa translates as ‘flow and breath’. The flowing, dynamic form of yoga is connected to breath, in that the transitions are embodied as linkages within and between poses.
Vinyasa 1/2 : Drop in class designed to introduce students to flow based vinyasa forms.
Mixed Levels Vinyasa: A challenging class that provides lots of modifications for all level of students.
Vinyasa 2/3: A dynamic practice for mixed levels or those who are ready for a challenge
Core Vinyasa: It’s all about core! A fun, energizing class that will mix up a variety of focused plank work, core- oriented standing postures, intense floor work and leads up to playful inversions and arm balances.
Ashtanga Yoga:
This classical form of yoga is taught in the traditional sequence of postures created by founder K. Pattabhi Jois. It combines power and flexibility with movement, bandhas, and breath to produce an energetic and detoxifying practice.
Astanga 1: (Level 1/2 class) Drop-in class designed to introduce students to the astanga standing and closing series.
Astanga 2/3: This class is open for mixed levels, those who are focused and looking for a vigorous practice.
Yin Yoga:
If you are looking for a soothing, meditative practice this is the class for you. Developed by Paul Grilley Yin Yoga is a style of yoga which targets the connective tissue of the hips, pelvis and lower spine through poses which are held for longer periods of time, typically up to five minutes, instead of the usual five to eight breaths. Many people find that this practice has a transformative effect on both body and mind.
