Class Descriptions

bikram style hot yoga

Bikram style yoga is a set sequence of 26 postures practiced in a heated room. 24 asanas and 2 breathing exercises repeated twice throughout the duration of the class. The sequence never changes. Each previous asana prepares you for the next one. Bikram Style hot yoga is suitable for all levels and has a lot of health benefits: it stretches your whole body, increases blood circulation, and brings more oxygen to your muscles, in addition to the standard benefits of yoga. Heat helps your muscles to stretch more easily, makes you sweat, and helps flush out toxins and lose weight. Make sure to hydrate and before the class and bring a towel for your mat to avoid slipping.

Free Yoga & Meditation

Join us for this therapeutic half hour yoga sequence followed by a half hour of meditation led by Shane. Shane practices Zen Buddhism and his holistic approach to yoga and meditation weave together physical and mental wellness. His classes provide a space for healing, transformation and growth. A wonderful (and FREE) class to wind down your weekend and center yourself for the week ahead.

Hot yoga

This hot Vinyasa class is a dynamic practice that will challenge, strengthen, and uplift you both physically and mentally. It is set to upbeat music, and a yoga inspired message will be offered for you to incorporate on and off the mat. This practice moves through seven doorways or stages, starting by creating sacred space and igniting the spirit or breath. Then we light the fire through a series of warmups and vinyasa flow including Surya Namaskar (sun salutations) A, B & C. The warm up prepares the body for strong holding postures and finishes with yin and conscious surrender in Sivasana. A sweat towel, water, and a sense of adventure are strongly suggested.

Kirtan - call and response chanting

The Sanskrit names of the divine (Mantras) are chanted to dissolve fear and anxiety, returning us to a sense of peace and well-being. Mantras will be chanted with the accompaniment of the harmonium, an accordion-like instrument from India that creates a deep, healing vibration. Silent and guided meditation will be part of this lovely evening practice.

Kirtan comes from the ancient style of Yoga known as Bhakti or the Yoga of devotion. The Sanskrit names of the Hindu Gods and Goddesses are sung over and over in a call-and-response form. These chants have been sung for thousands of years by those who have come before us.

All welcome. No experience is necessary.

Select Tuesdays only: Please check our class schedule above.

MINDFUL FLOW

Mindful Flow is a seamless sequence designed and curated intuitively based on the needs of the students and the overall energy of the day. You can expect to leave feeling grounded, nurtured and connected to your body.

SHALA FLOW

A thoughtfully sequenced, breath-centered and medium-paced class that creates heat, mindfulness and balance. Incorporates a variety of standing poses with an introduction to intermediate asanas (poses). Invites students into the home of the body using the breath to integrate alignment principles, fluid vinyasa and a deep meditative savasana. Inspiration such as music, poetry and/or meditation may be used to draw practitioners into the heart, nurturing a deeper awareness on and off the mat. This class is welcoming to varying levels, but prior yoga experience is preferred.

slow FLOW

This class is a combination of sun salutations and other traditional flow sequences that connect breath and movement to warm up the body and focus the mind. We’ll break down the poses to improve alignment and balance. We will included standing and seated floor postures designed to build strength and flexibility by releasing connective tissue and increasing range of motion. We will take the final parts of class to use less muscle energy, and find deeper release of the muscles and the mind to end your evening in a gentle space.

Warm candlelight flow

Start your week with a heart-centered flow class by candlelight in a warm room (88 degrees). Unwind from your day and reconnect to your body & breath in this well-rounded, slow-paced Vinyasa class for beginner to intermediate. We will hit on your favorite poses to wring out tension and build heat, while adding the bolster to various poses for ultimate support and relaxation. Those who are newer to yoga will receive help adjusting and finding correct alignment. Class will begin and end with a short mantra and meditation to set intention. Aromatherapy may be used during adjustments & final relaxation (Savasana). Be prepared to leave feeling soothed, refreshed and ready for a good night’s sleep.

workshop flow level 2-3

These Friday evening classes will be a blend of heart warming flow and workshopping deeper into poses by integrating strength and alignment techniques. The longer length will give us time to warm up our bodies and feel into the physical and emotional expressions of deeper poses. Class will wind down with a soothing restorative series and Sivasana. The last 20 -30 minutes of class will include contemplative practices such as yoga nidra, chanting and/or meditation. A great way to kick off your weekend!
