Class Description Â
          Â
   Gentle Yoga
     This is the perfect introductory class for the person who is new to the conceptÂ
     of Yoga, or the person who comes off an injury, or even the seasoned practitionerÂ
     who wants to experience the softer side of Yoga.
      This class is ideal for stress relief, overall relaxation and restoration of body, mind
     and spirit, as the student learns to gradually unwind tight joints and tension filled
     minds in the presence of breath, cultivating inner focus connecting to and moving
      through a series of gentle postures. This format further incorporates standing andÂ
   balancing postures to enhance overall stability and poise. Â
    Beginner FlowÂ
    This format is a step up from the Gentle, as the student moves to a slow-pace
   standing "flow" practice, with the emphasis on synchronized breathing, as we
   introduce an alternative breathing technique called "Ujjayi pranayama" or "Victorious breath",
   and detailed instruction on proper alignment in each posture. Introducing a moderate pace,
   re-awakening the body's potential in bringing back the innate qualities of flexible strength,
   suppleness of the spine, balance and overall joint stability. This format is perfect for the
   person who is active in life but new to the concept of Yoga.
   â   Mixed Level Flow
      We "mix" it up a little in this class, as we incorporate beginner level posturesÂ
      with new and slightly advanced postures, though linked to modifications as
      the intensity level is geared toward the ability of the attending students, modifications are
    always provided for more advance poses.
    Ashtanga - Inspired Vinyasa
    Ashtanga yoga is a dynamic form of Hatha Vinyasa Yoga.  This class starts with traditional Ashtanga Sun        Salutations A & B, progressing through the classic standing sequence, the ending is modified from the         primary series including a finishing sequence and savasana.  Merging of the breath, asana and drishti         (gazing point) create a form of moving meditation.  Bandas (energetic locks) and agni (internal fire) are       addressed.  Bring a towel and be prepared to sweat.
      Kundalini YogaÂ
    This special yoga class is designed to improve your physical, emotional and mental well-
   being as your practice fun, yet challenging exercises.  Classes consist of different exercises
   and postures, breath work, meditations and relaxing/stress relieving techniques.  You willÂ
   learn positive affirmation mantras and mudras (hand positions).  Beautiful music played to
   enhance your enjoyment and overall experience.  The classes are designed according to
   your individual needs and health goals.
  Intermediate Flow Yoga
â    With each successive format, the intensity level increases and the postures become more challenging and      more fun. With a deeper understanding of self and a greater understanding of he mechanics of each          posture, becoming more and more in tune with our body, the gradual transformation becomes apparent.Â
   This sense of accomplishment encourages faith and commitment of regular practice and fuels theÂ
   motivation to continue the journey in shaping strong, healthy bodies and tension-free minds.Â
   Be prepared to sweat! Class will includes higher level poses.
â     All classes end with a deep relaxation segment,
     Good for the body...good for the soul.
