Class Descriptions
Welcome to your journey of self-discovery through yoga. At the heart of yoga is the understanding that peace and calm reside within us, waiting to be uncovered. While it may take time to connect with this inner tranquility, each person’s path is beautifully unique. With a variety of yoga styles available, I encourage you to explore the descriptions below to find the class that best suits your needs. Embrace this journey with an open heart and mind, as growth often comes from gently pushing beyond our challenges. We’re here to support you every step of the way—let’s embark on this transformative experience together.
Traditional 26 (no Music):
Traditional “Bikram-style” hot class. This practice consists of 26 foundational poses, beginning and ending with breathing exercises practiced in a heated room (105°). A static, therapeutic and energizing practice, this class promotes a steady physical progress of strength and flexibility and simultaneously cultivating mental focus and discipline. Perfect for beginners and experienced practitioners alike.
Note: One unique aspect of the absence of music is that it allows for a deeper connection with the present moment. By practicing in silence, we learn to become more attuned to our breath, our body, and the subtle shifts within, fostering greater mindfulness and self-awareness. This approach encourages us to cultivate inner stillness, helping to build resilience against external noise and distractions, both on and off the mat.
Hatha + Flow (no Music):
This is an all levels yoga class incorporating foundational poses, introducing sun salutations and flowing from pose to pose. This class is also heated to 105°. This grounding practice holds postures longer while continuing to flow providing a challenging yet accessible practice.
Slow Flow (Music):
This is a slower paced Vinyasa class (still flowing). Suitable for all experience levels, and variations are offered for beginners and experienced yogis alike. Equally challenging and accessible, its the perfect addition to your rotation. Room is heated to 100°.
Vinyasa 1 (Music):
Our Vinyasa flow moves at a faster pace and intended to get the heart pumping and the breath moving. These classes feature sun salutations and sequences designed to be both challenging and restorative, leaving you feeling strong and refreshed. Vinyasa classes are suitable for all experience levels, and variations are offered for beginners and experienced yogis alike. The room is heated to 100° for this practice.
Yin (gentle) Yoga (Music):
A slow-paced, therapeutic style of yoga. Postures are more passive, mainly done on the floor. Poses are held for 3-5 minutes allowing the gentle opening and stretching in the body and ultimately resulting in an artful practice of opening and letting go mentally, physically, and emotionally. Room heated to 90°-95°.
