Class Descriptions
Gentle Yoga:
Gentle yoga is open to anyone. We practice traditional yoga postures and modifications to build strength, flexibility and inner-awareness. This class is suitable for beginners, people recovering from injury, people returning to yoga practice after a prolonged break, seniors and people who are not particularly flexible. Explore the benefits of yoga and learn correct alignment in a safe, supportive atmosphere.
Deep and Mellow:
This restorative yoga class allows you to take the time to look within and let go. Enjoy the chance to relax and unwind to candlelight and peaceful music. Through longer and deeper holds in each posture, learn to meditate on the endless energy within.
Kundalini Yoga:
Kundalini Yoga was brought to the US by Yogi Bhajan in the 1960s. Each class begins with a tune in, breathing exercises, warm ups, a yoga set, followed by relaxation and meditation.The practice energizes and revitalizes the body through postures, breaths, mudras (hand positions) and mantras (sound currents). Kundalini Yoga is welcoming to beginners, and can deepen your current yogic practice, bringing awareness to the mind, body and spirit. It is also said to strengthen your immune, glandular, and nervous systems. Come join us and leave blissed-out!
Foundations:
Learn the tools for a lifelong yoga practice including asana, pranayama and meditation to inspire a deeper connection with self and others. This class is optimal for students with little or no background in yoga, and also those who wish to deepen their knowledge of alignment and structural details within the postures.
Anjali Yoga:

Move gracefully through a vinyasa flow linking together physical, mental and spiritual qualities into one grounded practice.
