Yoga
Vinyasa Flow – This is an all levels class, great for beginners while also offering a challenge for the more advanced yogi. This dynamic, strengthening asana practice is rooted in the teachings of Patanjalis yoga sutras. The practice allows for creative, intelligent flows drawn from the foundational practice of surya namaskar A&B. You can expect the teacher to offer instruction to guide you on proper alignment with each posture while encouraging presence through the breath. The ultimate goal is to bring the practitioner back into alignment with the body, mind and spirit connection. This will cultivate a ripe environment within the body for healing, rejuvenation, renewed energy and strength. A consistent practice will assist the practitioner in gaining an understanding of the 8 limbs of yoga and how the ancient techniques of ujaii pranayama tied to movement produce a transformative fire within where this transformative fire is capable of rippling into all areas of the yogis life.
Yin Yoga – Yin Yoga is a meditative yoga practice that focuses on the connective tissues (ligaments, tendons, joints) in the body through long deep stretches that are held for 4-6 mins. It is the perfect complement to Yang/Vinyasa based Yoga styles, running, hiking and other cardio exercises. Props such as bolsters and blocks are used to support the body in Yin Yoga.
Yin Yang Yoga – Create the perfect balance with a Yin/Yang flow! A combination of Vinyasa and Yin Yoga, this class will start with an energetic Vinyasa flow comprising of sun salutations and other dynamic asanas, and move into long deep stretches (on the floor) focusing on connective tissues in the body.
