Special Classes (unique, one-time offerings)
Sunday, July 13, 4:30-6:00pm: Self-Massage & Myofascial Release w/ Yoga Tune Up Therapy Balls - In this relaxing and restorative workshop we’ll explore self-massage with Yoga Tune Up Therapy Balls as a practice for self care. This self massage practice is a great way to get to know your body, to relieve pain and stress, and to increase flexibility, range of motion, and circulation!
We’ll start with a basic introduction to ball rolling. Then we’ll learn some strategies for using the Yoga Tune Up Balls to release tension in our muscles and fascia. The workshop will include some light yoga poses and breathing exercises to enhance the self massage experience and to help us unwind.
This is an all-levels class - no previous yoga or massage experience is necessary.
Enjoy the early bird price of $20 for this workshop through Sunday, July 6! Sign up after July 6 for $25.
Passive Classes (grounding, calming, meditative)
Deep Stretch - It's time to slow down and get into the deep connective tissue of your body. This class is taught at a very slow pace with a meditative approach to help you restore your body and calm your mind. You will experience a sense of grounding and centeredness as this class is taught close to your mat with little to no standing postures.
Gentle Yoga - A soothing and accessible class that focuses on increasing mobility and range of motion in the body. In this class, your instructor will guide you through poses that are selected for improving balance and overall posture. You will learn to move with ease and comfort and develop an understanding of the connection between mind and body. This is a great class option for beginners. It's also great for older populations, pregnant women, people with limited range of motion, or those who want a softer, slower approach to the practice.
Restorative Yoga - In this class, we will use bolsters (thick, sturdy pillows), blankets, and yoga blocks to fully support our body in each pose. Each pose offers a gentle, refreshing stretch for the body and will be held anywhere from 2-10 minutes. You can close your eyes for most of this class, relax, and let go! A great reset for the body and mind. This is a great class option for beginners. It's also great for older populations, pregnant women, people with limited range of motion, or those who want a softer, slower approach to the practice.
Active Classes (uplifting, toning, dynamic)
Breathe & Flow - In this class, you'll be guided through a warm-up that includes movement and pranayama (breathwork) to get the blood flowing and the mind stimulated for your practice. You'll then move into a vinyasa-style (flow) yoga practice that allows you to flow with your breath through the poses. It's a great class to get your morning moving meditation on! Suitable for beginners and experienced practitioners.
Flow - In this class you'll be guided by your instructor through an all-levels sequence of vinyasa yoga in which you can move with your breath and explore the range of motion in your body. With active and dynamic options, a combination of seated and standing postures are offered to help you connect with your body and clear your mind. We welcome you to join us for this feel-good flow class :)
Mat Pilates - Learn to strengthen your powerhouse muscles of the core, glutes, and thighs with movements inspired by and derived from Joseph Pilates’ classical mat series. We will tone the core with several abdominal exercises and strengthen the glutes and inner thighs with various side kick movements. Great class for building strength with a very accessible approach!
Slow Flow - A general, all-encompassing yoga practice with emphasis on stability, mobility, and functional movement. In this class, your instructor will guide you through a hatha yoga inspired practice that will leave you feeling strong and steady. Be prepared for a challenge at a slower, more digestible pace. All levels welcome.
Pose Clinic - If you want to take a deeper dive into the yoga asanas (poses), then this workshop-style class is for you! The session will begin with a vinyasa-style warm-up guided by your instructor followed by a deeper dive into the Pose-of-the-Day where we will look at alignment details, how to utilize props, as well as variations and modifications for the pose to meet your body and support it where it's at. The class will close with a cool-down and final relaxation to allow time to rest and digest your time on the mat. Your instructor will offer time for you to ask questions and/or get personalized, hands-on feedback from them. This class is a great option for all skill levels wanting to learn or refine, so no matter if you are a beginner or an experienced practitioner, this class is for you! July Pose-of-the-Day Calendar - this class will not be held on July 3 | July 10: Wheel Prep to Wheel, July 17: Forward Bends, July 24: Downward Facing Dog, July 31: Camel
Power - In this class you’ll practice a dynamic vinyasa flow designed to strengthen and tone your whole body. This class is meant to offer a challenge for the body and mind by combining strong holds and powerful movements with the mentality that the yoga actually begins when you want to come out of the pose. Although we encourage you to "stay with it” and “find a way in” you are always welcome take rest when you need. Come join us in this class if you like our “flow” class and want to take it to the next level :)
Yoga HIIT - Your go-to yoga/workout fusion class! In this class we'll combine body-weight exercises with yoga movements and poses in order to build strength for your whole body. We'll move through a dynamic warm up into a yoga-based high intensity interval training (HIIT) workout and finish with passive stretching. A great option for those who would like a cardio-infused morning movement practice!
Fusion Classes (active & passive)
Flow to Yin - Enjoy the best of both worlds with this yin yang blend. The class begins with a flow guided by your instructor to get the body warmed and loosened up and closes as a deep stretch (yin) practice to lengthen the muscles and improve mobility. A great option for those who want a balance between an active and passive practice. Beginners welcome.
Heated (warm) vs. Not Heated
Any class we offer with the word “warm” in the title means that the room is heated around 85-90 degrees with added humidity to help loosen the muscles and detox the body throughout the practice. If adding a little extra heat to your practice sounds good to you, then these are the classes for you!
Already run hot enough? Not to worry - all classes without “warm” in the title are non-heated. The room is 70-75 degrees for these classes to provide a comfortable temperature and allow you to use your own internal heat to light up your practice with.
