Open Yoga: All Levels

This class welcomes everyone – from those with a foundational knowledge of yoga to teachers. Classes are ideal for students who are open to diving into the all that yoga has to offer.

Weekend Yoga Reset

These classes are designed for anyone looking to let go of the week and ease into an enjoyable weekend. Accessible for all levels, classes release tension, improve mobility and create a feeling of balance leaving you feeling relaxed and restored.

Gentle Yoga and Meditation

These classes are geared toward deepening our practice by fine-tuning our attention, not through doing more. You will be encouraged to notice if you can feel “a free and easy breath” while paying attention to body awareness and postural alignment. Classes will also incorporate innovative use of props and creative sequencing, with an emphasis on body mechanics and core strength. While physically challenging, this class is accessible and safe for practitioners of all levels. You will leave feeling calm, relaxed, less achy and more energized.

Refresh with Somatics and Yoga

Refresh: to give new strength or energy to; reinvigorate. That’s exactly what these classes do! We start with somatics, a gentle form of movement designed to release patterns of pain and reorganize connections between the brain and body so that we move more freely. Attainable yoga postures follow that are geared toward students who are new to yoga or have been away from the mat for awhile. You will leave the class feeling renewed and revitalized.

Yoga for Strength & Mobility

These classes are based on principles of movement: True mobility = flexibility + strength & motor control. We playfully step outside the box (and off the mat at times) to explore our practice and our movements. These classes are a wonderful way to fuse fitness with yoga.

Restorative Yoga

Restorative yoga is the perfect antidote to stress. It's a reset for the central nervous system and like a spa for mind, body and spirit. Restorative yoga uses lots of props to support the body in positions of ease and comfort. By employing gentle breathing techniques, the mind and body come into deep relaxation. Perfect for those whose lives are stressful (whose isn't?), for those recovering from injuries, as an excellent complement to a more active practice, or for anyone who wants to hit the reset button, slow down and deepen awareness. Restorative yoga is wonderfully adaptive and accessible for people of all ages and levels of practice and essential for overall well-being.

Yoga for Self-Care

Yoga is one of the best forms of self-care you can find. Spending time on your mat benefits your brain, heart, and bones. This class focuses on those tight body parts we all have, and also includes restorative poses to leave you feeling ahhh-so-good! This class is appropriate for all levels of practice.

You, Me and Rodney Yee: Moving Toward Balance

Start. Restart. Reinvest in your personal yoga practice. Make 2023 the year you return to balance. Join me for an introduction to yoga movement beginning Wednesday, February 8, 2023.

This ten-class series will follow the curriculum outlined in Rodney Yee’s book, “Moving toward Balance.” This step-by-step method presents the building blocks of yoga movement, and creates the opportunity for a personalized yoga practice.

Classes will be presented in a progressive learning style, with each class and sequence combining previously presented material. We will also explore the best use of yoga props and pose modifications. You’ll benefit from interactive teaching that provides one-on-one attention.

Each session will also have time for Q&A, making your individual interests part of the group’s learning.

You will also be given curriculum-based homework and individually-assigned exercises. This series is designed for you and your personal development of your yoga practice. The outcome will be an increased sense of self-confidence, renewed motivation, enthusiasm, and optimism about your yoga practice.
