Focused on bringing balance to the body, mind and spirit—this class promotes flexibility, strength and awareness of breath. Each pose will be held for 5-8 rounds of breath and is perfect for beginners looking to balance, strength and flexibility. Each class will focus on physical postures and proper alignment as well as breathing techniques to promote overall balance to the body, mind and spirit.

In this class we will be moving at a deliberate and mindful pace with an emphasis on linking breath with movement. A slower version of vinyasa, the idea here is to move intentionally, emphasizing body awareness and easeful transitions between postures. This class will help bring awareness to sensations in your body while focusing on the breath.

This class is for anyone struggling with physical injuries, chronic pain, or anxiety and who are seeking ways to manage their condition and improve their mental health, sleep and wellbeing. Specific techniques will be given to guides and regulate your nervous system while moving at a slower, gentler pace. All levels welcome.

Yin yoga is best suited for those looking to balance a busy and active (yang) lifestyle—inviting you to slow down and come into a meditative state. Each posture will be held 3-8 minutes activating the ligaments, bones, tendons and fascia as well as the energetic channels, the meridians in the body. These long held passive postures will invite stillness, mindfulness and awareness.
