Gabrielle M.Ease into your week with a mindfully embodied all levels practice including chant and music, breath, meditation, and flowing movement through Yoga poses.
Mind-Body Balance (with sound bowls)
Taylor B.Designed to strike a balance between building strength and increasing flexibility, this class incorporates vinyasa-style flow sequences with poses held for several breaths. Physical strength and mobility are improved through an active flow of postures, transitions, and one-legged balance poses. Longer holds allow the release of tension stored in the body, and the chance to practice calming the mind through breathing techniques, meditation, and present-moment consciousness. This class is optimal for enhancing climbing mobility and proprioceptive awareness. It closes with an opportunity for nervous system regulation by incorporating an extended Savasana (rest) period with the soothing vibration of singing bowls.
Mobility and Myofascial Release
Kimberly A.75 minutes of self myofascial release and functional mobility work using foam rollers, Lacrosse balls, and other tools to help you really get to those persistent tight spots. Connective tissue builds rigidity along lines of stress and this can limit movement. Self myofascial release, active stretching, and antagonist/stabilization strengthening can help overcome structural imbalances and safely increase range of motion to prevent injury and improve athletic performance.
This class is similar to our Functional Flexibility class in a longer format which enables more thorough and in-deptth work.

Sunrise Yoga
Gemma H.This class invigorates and awakens. Using breath exercises (Pranayama), meditation, Sun Salutations, and an array of dynamic poses we help you prepare for your day. All levels of experience are welcome.
All Levels Vinyasa
Kimberly A.Vinyasa refers to the art of carefully sequencing a practice, and sequences often flow toward a challenging peak posture (inculding arm balances and inversions). Expect clear instruction, pose variations for all levels, and energizing sequences for a midday pick-me-up. We explore a variety of poses in a well-rounded practice that links movement and breath. These classes help build endurance, improve mental focus, and increase strength and flexibility. This class is suitable for both experienced practitioners and those new to Yoga, and is a great way to become familiar with Vinyasa/Flow style Yoga practice.
