Yoga Flow... 'Vinyasa' or to 'place in a special way', this class is a ‘linking’, or ‘continual flow’ of asana (postures) arising from Sun and Moon Salutations.  Initiated and tethered by the breath, this style becomes a moving form of meditation, strengthening our response and connection to life's 'present moments'.  Drawing from several yoga traditions and creative intuition, this class is well suited for those with prior yoga experience seeking a moderate cardiovascular challenge.

Yin, Yang, Yawn...An integrated practice balanced in three dimensions. Yin yoga, as popularized by Paul Grilley, is founded upon the theory of meridians (energy channels) which are believed to exist within the lattice of connective tissue throughout the body.  Yin yoga postures invite muscles to relax and are held between 3-5 minutes, specifically to encourage gentle stretching of the connective tissue layers, where Yang postures involve dynamic active muscle stretch.  Class flows as an integration of Yin and Yang postures, concluding with a ‘Yawn’, or supported restorative postures.   

Restorative... A class offered at the transition of the seasons as a reminder to take time for ourselves.  Restorative poses are supported, relying little on muscular effort, allowing you to simply focus on ‘letting go’.  As you learn to observe the sensations of your body without identifying with them,  this  “nondoing”   acts as a window to the core of your being.  Turning deeper inward, you begin to realize how external perceptions are biased by internal emotions and sensations.
