Kick Your Asana
This fun level 1.5+ Flow is an alignment based approach to the practice. Not suitable for beginners, prepare for a challenge— whether you are looking for a “level up” from your basic yoga flow, or a firm kick in the asana up to a level 3. Emphasizing technique while having fun, students can feel safe and secure while remaining lighthearted at the core. Focus on opening deeply while finding balance. Because you will be heating your postures from within, the room temperature will stay between 80-85 degrees.

Sunrise Yoga Flow
Experience the benefits of an early morning vinyasa yoga practice as we salute the rising sun! Awaken the body, find balance within, ease into the day with greater clarity, peace, and mindfulness.

Yin/Yang/Yoga
Yin/Yang Yoga is the best of both styles – classes begin with a series of supported, meditative yin poses and flow into a vinyasa sequence to build heat and strength before settling back into restorative stillness. The yin practice targets deep connective tissues, increases breath awareness, and cultivates inward observation and reflection. Through deep holds, we’ll recognize and remove energetic and physical blocks as we relax whatever holds us back. Using the new space created, we will move through a vinyasa flow, which will include sun salutations, standing poses, and core work. Finishing practice with the option of blocks and blankets to cradle the body, we will revisit the yin element of practice and melt into savasana.
