beginner
11am SAT 60 min. This fundamental class teaches the basics of foundational postures, focusing on alignment and confidence with props. We build with breathwork, a mindful warm up that explores all directions of movement in the spine, standing balance and leg work, then wind down into longer holding postures seated or lying down, finally resting on the floor in savasana. room is a comfortable 72 degrees. |
YOGA + meditation
6:30pm THURS 90 min. This all-levels class begins with breath awareness and physical asana; gentle movements, and traditional hatha poses directed toward ease and strength in the spine. Physical work is followed by thirty minutes of guided meditation in a savasana. Yoga Nidra - yoga of sleep - is an undemanding entry into meditation practice, as the body relaxes deeply, while the mind is kept alert and occupied with visualization practices. room is a comfortable 72 degrees. |
balance
9am WED / SAT 11am THURS 5pm WED 75 min. In balance class, you'll build strength through static poses designed to support a healthy spine and breath function.

restore
9am SUNDAYS 90 min. A classical restorative yoga that is passive (not active), where we stay seated or lying down. Shapes are fully propped with bolsters and blankets, so that your body and mind can get into rest and digest mode and recalibrate the nervous system. Postures are held for 3-5 min each. Think of it like the “dessert” of yoga, with guided meditation included. room is a comfortable 72 degrees. 
ALIGN
6:30pm WED 11am SUN 75 min This class is based on the Iyengar style and is a form of hatha yoga (static holds) for all levels that focuses on proper alignment and precise technique using lots of props for accessibility and enhancing the ability to stay in a pose for an extended period of time (blocks, bolsters, chairs, blankets and the wall). Through slower movements and an emphasis on quality over quantity, Iyengar style yoga combines asana (postures) and pranayama (breath) to build strength, stamina, and flexibility. Room is a comfortable 72 degrees. |
gentle

Postures utilize lots of props to stretch deeper and release the connective tissues; especially encouraging mobility in the hips, pelvis, and low back. room is a comfortable 72 degrees. 
Flow Foundation
11am TUES 60 min. Flow Foundation is a 4-part mini-course that embraces the physical practice of asana (poses), emphasizing individual strategies for movement over conformity.

Room is a comfortable 72 degrees. |
workshops
These are longer-form sessions that are unique and offered one-time only or as a specialty series. Workshops focus on a specific topic, or deep dive into a practice that is more involved than a standard posture class (sometimes involving writing and lecture, additional interests like essential oils or sound meditations with crystal singing bowls, gongs, drums, and chimes.)
