These classes move slowly through a series of fluid postures, flowing continuously through sequences of sun salutations and standing/seated postures Emphasis on linking breath to movement, while relieving tension in the body, holding stretches and moving mindfully. A good fit for those who are new to yoga, looking to de-stress or wanting to take a Flow class at a calmer pace.

FLOW & RESTORE

Flow & Restore is a combination class, starting with a Flow (Vinyasa), followed by relaxing restorative poses (supported by props). We will flow to warm the body up, then take the final parts of class to use less muscle energy, and release deeper connective tissue, like ligaments, tendons and fascia. You will leave feeling relaxed, and your nervous system realigned.

GENTLE YOGA

GENTLE YOGA & RESTORE

Gentle & Restore is a combination class, starting with Gentle yoga postures, followed by relaxing restorative poses (supported by props). Class moves through a series of gentle movements, mostly in seated and supported positions, connecting your breath to your body.

We will take the final parts of class to use less muscle energy, and release deeper connective tissue, like ligaments, tendons and fascia through restorative poses. Most restorative postures are deeply supported by bolsters, blocks and blankets to hold the body in positions of ease and comfort. Meditation and breathing exercises are integrated throughout the practice to promote the effects of conscious relaxation.

Will help improve relaxation, flexibility and recovery. Especially well-suited for those with pain, trouble sleeping, anxiety or high levels of stress.

ANTIGRAVITY AERIAL YOGA

The AntiGravity hammock enables you to do things that would not be possible on your mat. As a moving, shifting, three-dimensional yoga prop, the hammock supports and cradles you while allowing you to push the limits of your yoga practice further than imagined. Throughout class, you can choose to participate in inversions, or just opt for more familiar upright terrain. There will be an opportunity to hold poses and inversions for extended time to allow the body to open while connecting to the breath. This is an open level adult class and options will be given throughout so students can individualize their practice. All levels welcome!
