General
- Bring a yoga mat if you have one – but don’t worry if you don’t! We can loan you one.
- Wear comfortable clothing (nothing fancy required) and bring water
- Most classes are 75 minutes long
- Please arrive a few minutes early to get settled on your mat. If you’re late, it’s ok, just come in quietly. Take the time you need to breathe and settle in before joining class.
- Just come practice! Our goal is to create a super easy going environment for everyone, so just show up with an open mind and we’ll take care of the rest!
Class descriptions
All Levels Yoga
This class is a great grounding and centering practice for all levels, including beginners. It incorporates the yoga principle of Vinyasa, which basically means “movement with breath.” This class will vary each week.
Yin with Slow Flow
This class will use props and blankets to hold restorative poses. This is the perfect class to begin the morning, as it gets into the connective tissue, fascia and deeper muscle areas. These poses are held for 3-5 minutes. Coupled with breath work, visualization and a slow flow you will feel restored, rejuvenated and ready for your day.
Gentle Chair Yoga
Designed for those with limited mobility and seniors, participants sit in chairs for yoga. Various breathing and yoga techniques are offered to increase range of motion, relax the body and renew the mind.
