Beginners

Beginner’s Foundation ~ Focused on students who are new to yoga, returning to their practice, or simply want to refine some aspects of their practice.  Introduction to poses (asanas), breath (pranayama), props (support), and meditation (relaxation). Teachers offer detailed instruction and simple sequences that allow you to build your yoga practice.

Gentle

A relaxed and accessible style of yoga that emphasizes slow movements, basic poses, and a focus on breathing. Suitable for beginners or anyone seeking a less intense practice.‍ ‍

Gentle ~ A balanced offering of effort and ease with slower pacing for every level of student.  These classes may include offerings based on Hatha, Vinyasa, Somatic, and Restorative Yoga.  Emphasis on breathing and quiet reflection allows us to come away feeling flexible in our bodies, relaxed in our minds, and calmed in our nervous systems.

Yin ~ Yin Yoga is a slow-paced style of yoga that involves holding passive poses for an extended period, typically 3 to 5 minutes or more. It focuses on stretching and deepening the connective tissues, such as ligaments, joints, and fascia, to improve flexibility and promote relaxation. Yin Yoga is meditative, encouraging mindfulness and stillness.

Vinyasa

A dynamic and fluid style of yoga that links breath with movement. Poses flow smoothly into one another, creating a rhythmic and meditative practice. Teachers are focused on helping students build and progress in their yoga practice.

Vinyasa ~ Flow between postures using synchronized movement with breath, building strength and stamina, Vinyasa classes borrow from diverse influences, including Ashtanga, Hatha, and Power Yoga. These practices are more challenging than our Gentle classes, but options are provided to make these classes accessible to all levels of practitioners

Ashtanga Vinyasa ~ A one-hour vinyasa flow inspired by the traditional Ashtanga primary series. The flow includes Sun Salutations, standing postures, seated poses, and traditional closing postures. Focus is on building the foundations of an Ashtanga practice including breath, alignment, drishti, and bandhas.

Wall Yoga

The yoga wall is a wall-mounted adjustable strap system that facilitates more ease and versatility in hundreds of yoga poses (asanas).  It creates support and accessibility for inversions, backbends, therapeutics, and standing poses; allowing you to explore alignment and avoid excess strain.  Challenge your strength, flexibility, and mobility in introductory poses or fine-tune more complex asanas. Come learn more about your body and have fun! Wall classes accommodate all levels.

Form & Function

These classes build the strength, mobility, and awareness that support your yoga practice from the inside out. Through thoughtful exploration of asana and functional movement, you'll deepen your understanding of how your body moves - so every pose becomes more intentional, sustainable, and uniquely your own.

Mobility Flow ~ This dynamic class combines flowing yoga movements with targeted mobility work to build strength while improving flexibility and joint health. Perfect for all levels, you'll flow through sequences that create stability and release tension in hips, shoulders, spine, and hamstrings. Ideal for developing both strength and flexibility, or anyone seeking relief from daily tension through mindful movement.

Yoga Conditioning ~A monthly 75 minute class that uses movement to build strength and flexibility coupled with form and function within a set of asanas.  Using props — blocks, straps, and the wall — we'll explore each asana with curiosity and intention, honoring the fact that not every body moves the same way. Less about getting it "right," and more about understanding what you're feeling and why.
