Children’s class

Our children’s class is an excellent way to introduce children to developing body awareness and the importance of physical activity and breath.   We have no minimum age requirement at this time , we only ask that the children have enough maturity and interest to follow the instructor.

All levels

All levels is a good introduction to yoga, appropriate for beginners and advanced students.  You will learn how to execute postures correctly and develop breath awareness.

Yoga Flow

Yoga flow is a more active class. For those looking for more of a workout, this is the class for you.  Poses are connected with transitions and the breath aids in keeping the heat in the body.

Restorative

Restorative class is a relaxation and regeneration practice.  Equipment is used to promote passive postures.  The postures are held longer so that the body can learn to completely relax.

Yin Yoga

A practice of yoga that utilizes time, gravity and awareness to reach those places in our bodies where we hold ourselves in tension and protection.  As we connect with them, we meet the place in our mind where we hold resistance.  This allows for profound changes to occur, bringing ease into one's body and a calm inner poise to one's mind.  The yin way is to go within.
