Class Descriptions

The yoga styles described below can be scheduled for group, private or semi-private sessions. Private sessions are an opportunity to get all of your questions answered, to receive assistance in developing your home practice or for people who have difficulty finding time in their schedule to attend classes. Private and small group sessons are also an opportunity to work with specific injury, limitations and special conditions more intimately.

Vinyasa Yoga is a style that combines flowing postures with Pranayama (breath work) to promote mental and physical focus. Vinyasa improves strength, flexibility and circulation by integrating breath and movement into sequences that flow while keeping awareness on posture and alignment throughout the practice. Vinyasa yoga can range from gentle flow to a more vigorous practice.

Hatha Yoga focuses on integrating body, mind, spirit through pranayama and asanas (poses) which are held for a longer period of time. The pose is held until a relaxation can be found in each pose. This practice improves the endocrine, nervous, and circulatory systems through the holding of postures and infusion of breath.

Restorative Yoga does not emphasize challenging physical postures rather utilizes props that allow you to completely relax, find peace and restore. Poses are held for a long period of time with specific calming pranayama. This is a soothing class where you can let go completely.

Vinyasa and Restorative Yoga can be paired for a balance of intense flow and postures and complete relaxation following. This allows the body to take in all of the benefits of the practice.
