SLOW FLOW & SOMATIC STRETCH (coming in April)
A sweet yang/yin combination. Get your yoga flow and then melt into a rejuvenating restorative practice.
Each class revolves around a particular focus that is explored through the modalities of Vinyasa, fluid yin, and restorative yoga. Vinyasa is breath linked to movement, still emphasizing form and alignment. Flow through the first part of class then move to gentle, low to the ground, supported poses that restore our alignment and reconnection to the bliss body that is always deep within. Fluid Yin poses are held longer, focus on ligaments, connective tissue, and joints. Slow Flow is often described as a yummy, gentle flow and offers the best of both worlds; a great way to move, release, then relax.

SUPPLE YIN
Supple Yin is a healing, gentle practice for anyone who is looking to improve flexibility and joint health while calming and training the mind. In this class floor poses are held for extended periods of time with the muscles relaxed to allow gravity time to work on the muscles, connective tissue, joints, and even the bones. This practice can actually be therapeutic for certain kinds of joint-pain, the long gentle holds allow joints to be worked in a safe and therapeutic manner. Because of the nature of the long holds it is a great time for inner-reflection and meditation as well as developing a deeper awareness of both the body and the breath. The poses themselves also begin to cultivate flexibility in the very same areas that one would need flexibility in to be able to hold an upright meditation posture for an extended period of time.
