Candlelit Unwind

As the week winds down, immerse yourself in an oasis of tranquility with our Friday Candlelit Unwind. This is not just a yoga session; it’s a journey to inner peace and rejuvenation, perfectly timed to set the tone for your weekend.

Our session begins with a series of gentle, floor-based asanas. These movements are crafted to be accessible for all levels, focusing on releasing tension and fostering a deep connection with the earth. As you flow through these poses, pranayama (breath work), and meditation, you’ll find your body unwinding, each muscle softly easing into a state of relaxed bliss.

This class is your opportunity to give back to yourself after a long week. It’s a time to nurture your body, calm your mind, and rejuvenate your spirit. You’ll leave feeling lighter, more grounded, and ready to embrace the weekend with a renewed sense of peace.

Hot Flow Yin

Starting with grounding postures to get settled into the practice, we then work on building muscle through repetitive strengthening movements with the heat of power. Yin postures are weaved into the practice to not only challenge the body but the mind as well. These holding postures are a great way to become comfortable with stillness and calm energy. This is two classes in one! Both strength and stretch.

Mind Body/Supportive Mind Body

Whether you are new or experienced in your yoga practice, this class is for you!

Our Mind Body classes are rooted in the Kripalu tradition.  Mindful warm-ups begin this thorough practice, which encompasses standing, prone, seated, and supine postures.  Static in nature, meaning you’re not getting up and down off the floor, this methodology allows students ample time to explore safe alignment, breath awareness, deep stretching, and stress relief, while also strengthening the body. Modifications are offered for different levels of strength and flexibility, and permission language is given to encourage students to listen to their own bodies, rest when they like, and embrace individual needs.  The studios are warmed only enough to offer a safe and comfortable stretch.

Supportive Mind Body class emphasizes the use of props such as chairs, blocks, straps and bolsters to aid in your practice to be suitable for all body types and abilities.
