Organic Vinyasa

A spontaneously sequenced form of vinyasa flow yoga. This practice encourages mindful exploration of the postures amidst an invigorating combination of fluid movement and deeper, prolonged holds. This practice incorporates elements of vinyasa, kundalini, pranayama, meditation, and chanting. This practice is ideal for practitioners looking for a practice that is eclectic and inclusive of a well balanced synthesis of challenging and calming elements.

Yin

The yin style blends yoga asanas with taoist meridian theory and mindfulness meditation techniques. Postures are held in the range of 3-5 minutes with muscles relaxed to target the connective tissue and organ systems. This slower form allows the asanas to be experienced as containers for self inquiry and receptivity through a gradual attunement to the subtle contours of experience. T he practice gradually guides students into deeper layers of interiority. This practice is designed for practitioners looking for a slower paced, more meditative approach to yoga and offers a great compliment to a power yoga based practice.

Power Vinyasa

Practiced in a warm room, power vinyasa challenges and inspires practitioners to cultivate an easeful mind while engaged in dynamic, exhilarating movement. Postures are linked together fluidly and married to the breath to create tapas, the fire of discipline that purifies and detoxifies the body and clears the mind. This practice is designed for practitioners looking for a strong physical practice that revitalizes and nourishes one’s Self from the inside out.

Kundalini

Kundalini Yoga is a sacred art & science based on the practice of kriyas: dynamic purification practices to cleanse and charge the body-mind. This potent form of yoga aims to awaken & conduct energy through rhythmic movement, invigorating breathwork, chanting, and meditation. This practice is ideal for students looking to deepen their investigation of the powerful potential of the human energy system through a practice that is both challenging and nurturing.

Yin-Yang Fusion

Designed to train both our active and receptive modes of being. More rajasic or "type a" people will be met where they are while also beginning to develop techniques for slowing down and introspection. More tamasic or "mellow" people will also be met where they are while beginning to develop techniques for enlivening their energy system. The practice  offers  people of both constitutions a more sattvic, or balanced practice leaving them in a state of energized clarity and centeredness.

Meditation

Meditation is the peak practice of all systems of yoga. All forms of physical yoga are designed to balance the body’s energetic system in preparation for the deeper practice of meditation where one surrenders striving and pierces the veil of the separate self. Practitioners are supported in cultivating a personal sitting practice through the development of techniques to quiet the mind, abiding calmly in the seat of the True Self. Various meditations are offered including mindfulness, vipassana, calm abiding, walking, and metta.

Restorative

Restorative yoga is a deeply nourishing practice that invites the use of props such as bolsters and blankets to encourage a deep letting go into each posture. Postures are held upwards of 10-15 minutes offering the benefits of deep relaxation, breath awareness, and release of unconscious holding patterns. This practice offers a tremendously healing space to explore the vast realms of consciousness accessed through deep relaxation.

Soulful Sundays

Take time to dive deep and honor your spirit on this sacred day. Sundays are a reminder to breathe deep & restore a sense of ease and balance in your life. This practice harmoniously integrates various elements from the yoga tradition's vast teachings: breathwork, mantra, mudra and meditation accompanied to vinyasa flow yoga & kundalini kriyas. This recipe serves to recharge your system & refresh your spirit. The weekly theme for this practice is drawn from the ongoing changes in our natural surroundings. Through the ritual of connecting with the natural elements, an exploration into the deeper dimensions of Self is awakened.

Various yogic philosophies and spiritual traditions will be discussed as a way to enhance the student’s personal practice. Many styles of Hatha yoga, including Vinyasa, Slow Flow, Restorative or Yin, may be included and will vary each week.

Prana Flow Vinyasa

Prana Flow is a full spectrum approach to embodying the flow of yoga cultivated by Shiva Rea and the Global Vinyasa Collective of Teachers. Students of all levels are empowered to experience prana- the universal source of breath, life-energy and conscious intelligence- as the navigating source of yoga practice and vital living. Practitioners learn classical and innovative approaches to vinyasa yoga and the state of flow drawn from Krishnamacharya's teachings, Tantra, Ayruveda, Bhakti, the Arts, Somatics and Shiva's teaching experience from the last 20 years.

Alignment Based Hatha

Alignment Based Hatha is essentially an ongoing, weekly workshop that takes time to dissect the deeper architecture of yoga postures. Each week the class focuses on a different yoga posture exploring elements such as proper alignment, muscular activations once in a posture, reading and understanding energy lines of postures, focal points, breath, bandhas, and modifications to enhance each posture to meet each student where they are. This practice is ideal for both new and experienced students and teachers looking to refine their understanding of yoga asanas.

Satsang/Sacred Study

Satsang is blend of two words; “sat” meaning absolute truth or pure being, and “sangha” meaning community. Satsang is not a physical yoga practice, but a gathering of our yoga community to unpack the deeper dimensions of yoga philosophy through insightful dialogue, heartfelt sharing, and sacred study of a variety of both ancient and contemporary texts. We welcome everyone to join the lively discussions and investigate how we can support one another in applying the life-affirming teachings of yoga to our everyday lives.

Eclectic Hatha

All posture-based systems of yoga fall under the auspice of Hatha (pronounced hot-ha). The premise of the tradition resides in the belief that the in-dwelling spirit can be accessed through the exploration of one’s physical & subtle bodies. To this end, many modalities are utilized. In the eclectic hatha practice, a variety of postures, breathing techniques, and meditation styles are explored in a class that moves at a moderate pace affording practitioners the ability to deepen both their understanding and experience of the power contained within the body. This practice moves slower than the organic flow and power vinyasa practices but is more active than yin.

Ashtanga

Ashtanga yoga is a living lineage that reached millions of practitioners through the inspirational life of Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. The primary series of Ashtanga yoga is a flowing, set sequence of asanas. In Ashtanga Yoga the movement is always synchronized with the breath and there is never a separation between the two actions. When the synchronization of movement and breathing is an integral part of the yoga practice and the three body locks are applied, an internal, purifying heat is generated in the body. Unwanted toxins are released and disposed of, vital hormones and minerals flow into the bloodstream and the nervous system is purified. The result is a light and strong body. This practice is both a method and a state of mind-body awareness allowing practitioners to develop control of the senses, a deep awareness of themselves and their inner sensations, their emotions and workings of the mind.

Lighting is subdued and quiet is encouraged throughout the treatment. A session lasts from 40 to 50 minutes and the price is right … anywhere from $20-$50. The amount paid is at your discretion. Because of the lower investment required you have the opportunity to receive more regular treatment. Many folks come two or three times a week for a number of weeks to help improve their condition and well-being.
