Yin yoga targets your deep connective tissues, like your fascia, ligaments, joints, and bones. It’s slower and more meditative, each pose is held for 3-5 minutes. Yin yoga is meant to challenge you physically and mentally, you will feel discomfort in some postures but this discomfort is meant to be healing. The healing process happens after the practice, when the tissue is repairing itself. The mental challenge comes from learning how to breath through your discomfort and to accept the sensation into the body. We’re not asking you to endure pain, but to realize the difference between pain and discomfort because there’s a BIG DIFFERENCE. Just as you work Yin tissues and feel “the burn” in your muscles you will learn to feel the right sensation to let you know you’re working your connective tissues. The practice will lengthen connective tissue, increase flexibility, boost circulation and decrease stress.

Moving the body with consideration of alignment and mindfulness, we can create structure and strength. I open each class by tuning into the breath and setting an intention for what we can bring into the class and our lives. Mixing styles of Hatha with Vinyasana and Kundalini Breathing, ending in a delicious Savasana. My wish to all my students is to leave feeling tapped into their inner strength and well being that they can carry with them through out their day and lives. Namaste.
A total body experience. You will see your strength build consistently with barre workouts. Small isometric movements work muscle to fatigue, then stretch it out to create long and firm muscle. This is a great workout to build up strength or to take your fitness to the next level. Isometric exercises are a great compliment to other workouts, they develop the muscle fibers that are essential for endurance and balance.
A lovely way to wash the happenings of the day away. Come to clear your mind and come back into your body for a peaceful yet powerful yoga flow by candlelight. We will move the body with the breath and hold some postures to gain a deeper understanding and challenge of the pose. This is an all levels class. Some aromatherapy will be used in class, please be mindful.
60 minute vinyasa flow that will work your entire body. A practice that will allow you to calm the mind, utilize your breath and get a physical practice that will challenge and nurture you.
