STYLES OF YOGA
Our class offerings draw from many yoga traditions and styles and support the whole range of abilities from beginner to advanced practitioner.
ALIGN + FLOW
Our alignment-based version of vinyasa. This all-levels practice ties traditional hatha poses together in a flow-style with several breaths per pose. A great class to learn actions in the pose while you move with breath. Each class offers a unique sequence designed by your teacher and incorporates props into the flow.
FLOW
Based in the traditional vinyasa roots of Ashtanga yoga, this class is about moving with the breath. Learn the rhythms of your body and breath starting with foundational sun salutations and progressing towards strong standing and grounded seated postures. The class opens with chanting (optional) and concludes with a series of finishing poses. This a great class for those who like invigorating movement, intentional alignment and deep breath awareness.
FLOW + SLOW
This all-levels practice has it all! Warm up and flow with strong and fiery yang practices and finish off with a cooling, settling yin. Classes will be challenging and restorative in turn. Each class offers a unique sequence designed by the teacher, may work up to a peak pose and closes with a good old fashioned deep, slow yin practice.
HATHA
A traditional yoga offering with static postures designed to strengthen, open, and align the body. This class gives students the opportunity to break down and explore poses, learn and understand alignment principles and actions in each pose and learn to effectively use props to enhance the practice.
HOT FLOW
Combining the breath-based movement of vinyasa with the heat of hot yoga, this one is sure to please people who like to sweat. We heat the room to around 90-95. If you like to work hard and breath deeply while moving in your own rhythm, this is one for you to try. This class begins with deep ujjayi breathing and is based on the traditional movements of Surya Namaskar (sun salutations) with some static hatha holds and a solid cool down into savasana.
HOT
Our hot yoga is based on the traditional 26-pose series practiced in a heated room. The heat enhances flexibility and provides deep cleansing benefits. The room is 105 degrees with high humidity to make it extra sweaty. We offer hot in 3 lengths: 60 minutes, 75 minutes and 90 minutes. Check the schedule for the listed class length.
Bring a towel, water and your own mat if possible. We have mats and towels to rent for $2 each.
You can expect it to be 105 degrees with high humidity.
Please sign up in advance, as space is limited and classes can fill quickly.
INTERMEDIATE HOT
Did you know that the hot yoga 26 postures were selected from a series of 84 postures taught by Bikram's guru Bishnu Ghosh? Ghosh lineage consists of 84 postures, 26 are practiced in the 90 minute beginning class. In the intermediate class, we integrate 48 (ish) additional postures from the 84. This class is a great way to expand and deepen your practice. Everyone is welcome to try, but it is helpful to have practiced the beginners series for at least 3 months as a basis for this practice.
RESTORATIVE
Restorative yoga utilizes long long holds with many props to create space, ease and restfulness. This practice is designed to calm your heart and mind, rest your body fully and leave you feeling refreshed and peaceful.
SENIORS
This class is a well-rounded practice designed especially for seniors, with modified postures and extensive use of props. The class focuses on alignment and posture to maximize the benefits of each pose. Though specifically created for seniors, everyone is welcome!
SILENT HOT
A silent practice of the traditional 26-pose hot yoga series, done in one hour and the traditional 90-minute formats. The 90-minute class is structured in a simple to follow audio format which includes cues on when to begin and end each posture. An instructor is present to provide any necessary modifications. This class is recommended for students who have attended at least 5 hot yoga classes.
SLOW + LOW
Learn to move and feel new nooks and crannies in your body. The class is low to the ground and slow-paced, giving it a high level of accessibility for all practitioners. Based on the movement studies of Somatics, this practice links body, breath and mind in a way that is restorative and healing.
YIN
This slow-paced practice of seated and reclined poses gently accesses deep connective tissues through long holds of 3-5 minutes and focus on the breath. Long-term benefits include improved range of motion, increased bone-density, improvement to concentration and attention span and ease of joint function.
YINYASA
Think slow and low, but in a flow! This delicious practice is done low to the ground and emphasizes mobility and fluidity. You can plan to roll around on the floor, move vinyasa style on your back, dabble in some longer holds in yin and yang poses, and enjoy deep stretches while potentially working up to a challenging peak pose. Like traditional flow, movements are linked to breath, but with a slower pace. Yinyasa is the perfect combo of vinyasa, flow and yin. A great practice to start your day.
YOGA BASICS
This is a Hatha-style class that is designed for students new to yoga. It is also a great style for those who want a little more instruction and understanding of yoga poses (we consider you a "beginner" if you are within your first few years of practice). You can expect to learn basic foundational shapes of yoga, how to use props and how to listen and respond to verbal cueing from your teacher.
YOGA HOUR
It's a yoga grab bag! The teacher will teach whatever they are feelin' that day. Class might focus on hatha, vinyasa, yin, restorative, yinyasa or a combination of any of the above. This is a fun way to see how your teachers practice on any given day. It also allows for a well-rounded practice and leading with an open-mind.
