Yin

Mondays 9:30am - ONgoing

Using longer holds designed to enhance joint, bone and connective tissue health, we will focus on the breath to help relax the body into the postures. Yin yoga helps to improve overall mobility and range of motion, specifically in the hips, pelvis, and spine. A complementary practice to any strength building or cardio exercise, as well as an active flow yoga practice, yin yoga can also greatly benefit those recovering from illness or injury. With practice, you will notice postural improvement, greater body awareness, increased ease of movement and overall balance in the body’s energy system. Yin is accessible to all levels of experience.

Flow Yoga & Movement

Thursdays 5:30pm - OnGoing

Create and build mobility and stability in this dynamic flow class. Students are guided to mindfully move through sequences to nourish and strengthen muscles, joints, and connective tissues. Designed with particular attention to movement that will help with our everyday lives, each class brings a different focus and includes a mixture of sequences and postures for shoulders, hips, spine, and core, all while connecting to the breath. Perfect for beginners looking for an active class and continuing students who wish to build upon their practice. 60 minutes.

Gentle Yoga

Thursdays 7:00pm - OnGoing

This class focuses on gentle stretching and toning while encouraging compassionate self-awareness. We’ll warm-up the body slowly in preparation for a series of fundamental yoga postures to release muscular tension and end with postures that promote deep rest and integration. It is accommodating for students with injuries and chronic pain, or for students who prefer to move at a slower pace. 60 minutes.

Nourish and Restore
