Class Descriptions

Each class is taught with mindfulness toward every student. Our instructors are intuitive, knowledgeable, welcoming, and one of a kind. Modifications are encouraged and accessible, as well as various props (blocks, bolsters, blankets) to better enhance your practice. 

Ebb + Flow

This nurturing style creates a rhythm of ebb and flow currents that help promote flexibility, balance, and joint mobility while honoring deep rest. Experience grounding yet peaceful sensations as we flow gently with ease, bringing greater awareness to our senses to help us stay present.

 

Expect to move slowly and mindfully through sequences with deep stretches, often linking breath to movement. This style will help enhance rage of motion, peace of mind, and will restore the muscles.

 

During this class, you will implement breath-work, settle into hip openers, and surrender to release. This is the perfect class to help you feel more relaxed, rejuvenated, and refreshed, all while creating healthy joint mobility. This class is appropriate for all levels and the most gentle classes we offer for most.

Earth Flow

​A grounded and mindful flow of yin and yang that is appropriate for all levels. This class includes a strong focus on meditation and breath-work which will help enhance a deeper connection within. Expect to build heat through holding poses and release tension through deep stretches. Class always begins with 10 minutes of insightful meditation  where you will be gently guided into nourishing stretches to help awaken the body. Continue warming up with traditional Sun Salutations (Surya Namaskar A) and flow through a series of standing poses that will help enhance blood flow, flexibility, an strength. Sun Salutations also help to energize the body, alleviate depressive tendencies, and quiet the mind. Your instructor will always make your safety a priority and will encourage you to modify as needed. This class is a great balance to our Fire Flows.

Ashtanga

Join us as we are guided through a modified primary series with the traditional Sanskrit count and chanting. This is a challenging vinyasa practice where each pose is held for five breaths. No prior Ashtanga experience necessary.

​

Learn safe, effective ways to approach backbends, shoulder-stand and headstand, or students will have the option to choose restorative poses instead if they do not wish to invert.

Energy Flow

An invigorating practice that will encourage you to expand your comfort zone and explore your thought process. This energetic class is suitable for practicing yogis who are familiar with their bodies and interested in exploring creative movements.

 

Class will begin with a gentle meditation where we ease into the body followed by a proper warm-up. You will be encouraged to enhance your vitality as class progresses more intensely along the way, eventually leaving you feeling refreshed, accomplished, and restful!

 

Mindfully move your body at your own pace while navigating through the sensations of yogic postures as well as mobility drills for healthy joints during a state of flow. Expect to be challenged both spiritually, mentally, and physically. This class is creatively evolving with multiple forms of modification and advancements for all sequences.

Sun Flow

A meditative and healing vinyasa flow that will help you trust your inner light with a strong focus on Sun Salutations, breath-work, classical yoga, and chakra balancing. Through breath-synchronized movement, poses are linked with inhales and exhales, followed by a long cool-down of restorative poses and yin to take you deeper into meditation. This class rejuvenates the body, relaxes the mind, and heals the soul.

Vinyasa

In this energetic class, movement is synchronized with the breath. This dynamic style of yoga involves linking poses to inhales and exhales, creating a continuous flow of movement. You will release tension through core work, flowing vinyasa sequences, and standing postures.

This invigorating class is suitable for all practicing yogis who are familiar with their bodies and interested in building heat through breath-synchronized movement. Pairing breath with movement also helps clear out blocked energy; internal energies can get blocked from any wound, whether it’s physical or emotional. Linking the breath with a movement helps release these blockages, inviting recovery and vitality to the body and mind.

​

Vinyasa yoga sequences can help improve cardiovascular health, physical and mental strength, overall flexibility and mental clarity. Modifications are offered to accommodate different levels of practitioners.

 

Guided Meditation

Curious about meditation, how to sit with specific alignment, and how to eliminate the intimidation of stillness? Perhaps you already have a strong meditation practice and want to further explore the process. This class is ideal for both curious and committed students!

 

*This is a 45 min. guided meditation*

Students will learn why posture matters and how to create a position that enables meditative states of being. Through this guided class, students will learn to understand the mind’s reaction to physical stillness and the benefit of accepting discomfort.

 

​

 

Yin Yoga

Yin Yoga is a gentle unwinding class that holds passive poses anywhere from 2-7 minutes at a time. This slow-moving introspective practice helps us deeply connect with our bodies while releasing pain, improving flexibility and joint mobility, reducing stress and increasing circulation. Using minimal muscles, this allows the connective tissues of the body (tendons, ligaments and fascia) to expand in a length that is beneficial and therapeutic. This 60 minute quiet practice gives us time to cultivate stillness and sit with ourselves through all of our mind chatter while practicing to be observant rather than reactive.

Sound Bath

Join us for a transformative journey of self-discovery and inner renewal through our unique meditation and singing bowl class centered around the concept of "wintering." Inspired by the natural cycles of life and the wisdom of the seasons, this class offers a sacred space to explore the profound beauty and wisdom of winter in both our external and internal landscapes.

  • Explore the Concept of Wintering

  • Guided Meditation + Mindfulness

  • Singing Bowl Sound Healing

  • Inner Renewal Practices
