Vinyasa Flow Literally translated from Sanskrit, Vinyasa means “connection.” Vinyasa Yoga synchronizes movement with breath which helps the practitioner develop a greater sense of self-awareness, balance, and harmony with themselves and their environment. Vinyasa classes typically include smoothly flowing movements between poses guided by the flow of inhales and exhales. Each class is uniquely designed to be refreshingly powerful, but may include the many variations of Sun Salutations as well as standing postures, inversions, backbends, twists, forward bends, and deep relaxation for a full being healing experience. Some yoga experience recommended.

Deep Relaxation Yin A quiet yet profound and highly therapeutic style of yoga that is available to all students at all levels. Considered the “deep tissue massage” of yoga, the power of Yin is in its long-held, relaxed floor postures. This kind of yoga stimulates the deep, connective “Yin” tissues of the body, affecting not only the physical body, but also the energetic, mental and emotional layers. Yin yoga strengthens the flow of prana (life force) or chi, maintains the health of the meridian system of the body, and develops presence and mindfulness in practitioners. It is excellent for students looking to advance deeper into their meditative practice. This class incorporates reiki healing energy, aromatherapy and gentle massage to be a deeply nourishing and relaxing experience, leaving you feeling refreshed and reset.
