Classes are listed from easiest to hardest. All classes are 77-80 degrees, except Hot Vinyasa which is 90 degrees.
For the Newer Student and Everyone!
Restorative
Little/no movement - passive, meditative poses held for apx. 6-10 minutes while supported with props, focusing on breath. All joints are supported with blankets or bolsters. No previous experience is required.
Beginner Series
The Beginner Series is for new students only. This is a workshop style class, not a flowing class. Poses are taught very slowly with modifications and props so you can really get to know the poses and your body in the poses. This series is offered once or twice/month.
Stretch and Chill
Slow, mindful moving - you are stretching your body while connecting with your breath and giving you the opportunity to slow down and get out of your head. No previous experience is required.
Stability and Flexibility
This class combines breathing with poses that are not in a flowing rhythm. The poses are done in a set sequence each time that allows you to really work on each pose and see your progress from week to week. This class is wrist-friendly, meaning no push ups, no table top poses, no up dog, or down dog. No previous experience is required.
Yoga Fundamentals 1
This class is great for everyone- you are moving through basic poses with plenty of cueing and guidance. Every pose can be tailored to fit where you are in your practice, and lots of modifications are offered.
For the Confident Student
Yoga Fundamentals 2
Quicker moving than Level 1, challenging in the way that you hold poses longer and work on balance. If you feel comfortable in Level 1, this would be the perfect next step in your practice.
Yoga Sculpt
Physically demanding, we work each muscle group very slowly until fatigued before moving on. 3-5 lb weights, resistance bands, and blocks are optional props. This class is great to add to your practice if you’re looking to improve muscle tone. This is a VERY slow moving class.
Mixed Level Flow
In this advanced class we move with the breath, doing sun salutations, dynamic sequences, standing balancing poses, backbends, twists, abdominal crunches, arm balances, and inversions. If you love to try new arm balances or inversions, then this class is for you!
Hot Vinyasa
Vinyasa means to move with your breath. This class moves at a pretty steady pace and you will sweat. This is NOT a beginner level class. If you love arm balances, twisting, standing balancing poses, and working hard, then this class is for you!
