Slow Flow Hatha Yoga
This slower paced class integrates the whole body in a challenging and restorative series of postures. You will move fluidly through inversions, spinal twists, hip and hamstring openers, and abdominal strengtheners with special emphasis on the breath.

Vinyasa Yoga
Vinyasa Yoga emphasizes one breath and one movement to build internal heat, strength and flexibility. This is a cardiovascular intense, flowing class that purifies the body and calms the mind. The quicker pace of the class is fun and raises your energy level.

Yin Yoga
Find the balance between your ambitious, energetic self and your peaceful, contented natural state. This calming Yoga practice emphasizes deep breathing and gentle deep tissue stretching. Yin Yoga is suited for all ages and levels of physical capabilities.

Yinyasa Yoga

This class is a blend of Vinyasa and Yin yoga.  The first half of the class emphasizes one breath and one movement to build internal heat, strength and cardiovascular endurance.  The second half focuses on deep tissue stretching and  complete yogic breathing.  Starting the class with a quicker pace is fun and raises your energy level – ending the class with a peaceful, slower pace creates a balance within the practice and restores ease to the body.

Ashtanga Yoga
Ashtanga Yoga is a specialized sequence of asanas (postures) based on the dynamic linking of rhythmic breathing and flowing movement. Immense heat is created deep within your core that acts to cleanse and purify the body. Focused breathing calms the mind and soothes the nervous system leaving one with a deep meditative calmness.
