Class Descriptions
Align & Flow - Thursdays at 5:30 pm with Tamara; Wednesdays at 5:30 pm with Tara
All classes begin with a meditation and invite mindful movement through attention to breath and physical alignment. In a vinyasa class, we link postures together and move with the breath on the inhale, or the exhale. A typical class involves strength and stability work balanced by flexibility and relaxation. Each class finishes with a reclining rest.
Chair Yoga - Tuesdays at 10:45 am with Deepali
Chair yoga offers an accessible gentle practice featuring seated and standing stretches, modified poses and mindful breathing. It is designed for every body type, making movement and yoga practice safe without getting down on the floor.
Gentle Yoga - Thursdays at 10:30 am with Tamara
This class offers a more "gentle" approach to yoga. Beginning with a focus on breath and settling in, we move through a warm up followed by various poses that assist in building flexibility, strength, agility and balance. Class concludes with an extended relaxation or savasana. All are welcome as we also focus on creating a comfortable environment that is accessible to all. Please join us!
Guided Depth Flow - Fridays at 7:30 am with Jeanne
For experienced students familiar with basic postures (āsana) and how to adjust to their bodies and desired intensity. Class will include self-led Sun Salutations, a guided standing sequence, chest-openers/back bends, seated positions and final rest (savasana). We will explore one new āsana each week: an arm balance, inversion, standing balance or backbend. With less verbal instruction, students are invited to deepen into meditative, focused practice.
Hatha Yoga - Sundays at 5:30 pm with Binuta & Tuesdays at 9:30 am with Caroline
This class focuses on alignment in asana as a tool to develop mindfulness and present moment awareness. Modifications are offered to encourage development of a personal practice. All levels are welcome. The extended Sunday Hatha class is an invitation to come home to your body, return to your breathe, quiet the nervous system, and start (or end) your week from a place of grounded presence.
Sthera (Effort) & Sukka (Ease) - Tuesdays at 5:30 pm with Beth
Sthira is a Sanskrit word that means steadiness, strength or stability. It comes from the root word stha, which means "to stand" or "to be firm." Sukha is a Sanskrit and Pali word that means happiness, pleasure, ease, joy or bliss. It can also mean "good space" and is often used in yoga to describe a state of comfort, relaxation or happiness. This class includes sustained poses and positions focused on balance & alignment, strength & length, effort & ease (sthira and sukha) and movement with breath.
Yin Flow Fusion - Mondays at 6:00 pm with Jeanne
Yin Yoga is a receptive practice. The student is invited into a supported yoga posture of mild intensity that is sustained in stillness for several minutes. In contrast, flow, or vinyasa yoga is dynamic movement guided by the breath focused on both strength or stability and flexibility. In Yin-Flow Fusion, these two practices are woven together in sequences designed to bring a sense of mental and physical resilience and vitality. Each class begins with a guided meditation and finishes with savasana, a reclining resting posture. Jeanne's classes include a strong somatic element, incorporating a modern understanding of the nervous system into Yogic ideas of the subtle body.
