About the Classes

All levels classes are designed to release chronic tension, develop stability, strength and flexibility to help us in our day-to-day life. We present the teachings of yoga in ways that allow virtually everyone to benefit from this ancient practice. Classes include body awareness, breathing exercises, warm-ups, range of motion exercises, dynamic movement, postures, syllable sounding, guided imagery, relaxation and meditation. Students need to be comfortable getting up and down from the floor, sitting on the floor and kneeling. Variations of the postures are offered so that each participant can choose the practice that suits them.

Level 1 classes are designed for students who are relatively new to yoga and those who will benefit most from the basic variations of the postures. Classes include body awareness, breathing exercises, warm-ups, range of motion exercises, dynamic movement, postures, syllable sounding, guided imagery, relaxation and meditation. Students need to be comfortable getting up and down from the floor, sitting on the floor and kneeling.

Level 2 classes are for students with experience with yoga and/or a level of fitness that allows for longer holding times, more balancing poses, breathing practices and the self-awareness to modify for the individual range of motion and ability. Classes draw from a variety of yogic practices and styles. The two-hour format allows for a deeper experience. (Fall through Spring)

Chair Yoga for Stability. A class for seniors, healing and anyone who would enjoy yoga but not getting down on the floor. All postures will be done in a chair or standing. The class will include movement to improve balance, core strength and flexibility.

Stress Reduction Yoga is a Level 1 class that uses the practices of yoga to develop a more comfortable relationship between mind and body. Classes will include breathing practices and yoga postures that reduce stress and create more balance in our lives. Bringing our awareness to ourselves in yoga can help reduce stress and control how we nurture and nourish ourselves. Posture variations will allow all shapes and sizes to find the position that allows comfort and a full-flowing breath.

Gentle classes emphasize soothing, healing, restorative practices. These classes are appropriate for those who need to slow down to reduce stress, those with physical limitations or are in the process of healing or recovery and students who prefer the gentle approach. For all classes students are encouraged to modify or release anything that is not comfortable and to use variations that allow a steady awareness and breath. Props are provided to allow for comfortable sitting, to cushion knees when kneeling, and to aid the wrists when weight-bearing on hands and knees. Classes are geared for adults, although past students range in age from 6 to 89.

Please go to groups section to learn about classes which can be available for students with specific needs.

Yoga class is one of the best parts of my week.
