Yoga classes come in many different flavors. Some methods emphasize a careful attention to body alignment, while other styles focus on the breathing; some are slow and quiet, while other styles are hot and sweaty. Yoga is a diverse course of study, and there is a style and teacher to match every-body. Please take some time to consider your preferences and the class descriptions below. Don’t hesitate to take classes with various instructors to find the best match.

Class Descriptions
Beginning Classes: Beginning classes develop the fundamentals of yoga postures and breathing. Participants learn practical techniques to release tension patterns in the body and de-stressing techniques for the mind. In addition to releasing the accumulated tensions of the day, participants will also build strength and flexibility. All ages and body types are welcome. Classes are ongoing, and beginners may join at any time.
Intermediate Classes: The intermediate classes build on the material learned in the Beginning Classes. By expanding the repertoire of yoga postures and learning to breathe deeper/easier, participants find a greater level of ease in their body and mind. The Intermediate Classes are best for experienced yoga students or beginners that have significant experience in the movement arts (such as athletes, dancers or martial artists). Classes are ongoing, and newcomers may join at any time
General Yoga: Basic instruction in asanas (yoga postures). Focus on standing and seated poses, simple twists and introduction to shoulder stand and sitting meditation using breath awareness throughout.
Gentle Yoga: Gentle Yoga is a meditative approach to yoga practice. Through a series of asanas that stretch, strengthen and relax the body and mind, participants build core strength and develop flexibility. With a focus on proper alignment and the integration of breath with movement, participants find ease and well-being within the postures, leading to a renewed connection with self. This class is open to beginners as well as experienced yogis who want a meditative, gentle practice to cultivate self-awareness and inner peace.
Level 1: Introduction and refinement of basic poses and techniques. Open to those new to Yoga.
High Energy Yoga: Transformational Work: Transformational work creates isolated actions in the body that improve core strength and energetic balance within the body. Through the creative use of props and working with a partner, participants receive immediate sensory feedback to guide their yoga progress. In the tradition of High Energy Yoga, this class focuses on integrity of movement, alignment, and proper action within the poses.
Advanced High Energy Yoga: Firmly based in the Iyengar tradition, with alignment and integrity of the poses at its core, High Energy Yoga helps students learn to sense its profound effects on the energy flow of the body, to practice yoga in accordance with their own constitutional type, and to balance their bodies and their energy flow.
Prenatal Yoga: This is a gentle class that requires no prior yoga experience. Each pose is specifically chosen to benefit the changing body of a pregnant woman. You strengthen different parts of your body that aid in an easier pregnancy and delivery. You will be taking care of your body and your baby while being part of a community of women sharing the joys and concerns of pregnancy. There is also the benefit of having a well trained and certified prenatal instructor to guide you in your practice and provide you with more information on pregnancy and birth.
