Class descriptions
Kundalini: Kundalini yoga incorporates movement, dynamic breathing techniques, meditation, and the chanting of mantras, such as Sat Nam, meaning “truth is my identity.” The goal is to build physical vitality and increase consciousness.
Yin Yoga: A low, slow, passive style, Yin Yoga lengthens and strengthens the connective tissues of the body – the tendons, fascia and ligaments – while allowing the mind and breath to practice relaxed presence and awareness even in times of stress and discomfort.
Yoga For All: Yoga For All is based in the Ashtanga tradition and provides multiple options for poses to make them accessible to everyone regardless of previous yoga experience or physical ability. The options offered for poses allow the person to make the best choice for him/herself in that moment.
YogaNuvo Flow: YogaNuvo has a goal to make fitness options available to people of all physical abilities. Even if you never exercised before, are uncomfortable with your body image, or have limited flexibility, this training is for you. If you want to experience the well-documented health benefits of yoga, including muscle strength, balance, bone density, flexibility, improved posture and circulation, not to mention the feeling of well-being known as “bliss,” give this class a try. You may even begin to experience more deep and refreshing sleep. This flow is based in Hatha yoga, but includes movements inspired by pilates, bellydancing, calisthenics and more.
