Class Description
Mysore
An all levels, self-paced Ashtanga practice. Students are taught the classic Ashtanga sequences pose-by-pose. The teacher assists and adjusts practitioners individually. Beginners and those with a therapeutic self-practice welcome
Hatha - Two Hours
In this two hour class we dive deep into a precise, Iyengar alignment-based practice, followed by extra time to move into pranayama (breathing) and meditation practice. For all levels
Vinyasa - All
A dynamic practice linking breath with movement, fostering an active, moving meditation. Vinyasa classes include sun salutations in their sequencing
Hatha - All
Cultivating the tools for internal experience, Hatha Yoga integrates physical postures (asanas), attention to energy and patterns of the breath (pranayama) and concentration (dharana). All of the physical yoga asana practices are considered Hatha yoga. This class description generally means there are no/ minimal sun salutations and chataranga (push-up) transitions
Restorative
Designed to rejuvenate the parasympathetic nervous system, a class that induces deep relaxation through a minimal series of gentle, supported poses
Hatha Flow - All
A slow to moderate paced flowing practice that incorporates alignment details. This class is intended to be a midpoint between Hatha and Vinyasa in pace and activity level
Forrest Yoga

This intensive strength, flexibility and alignment-focused practice is supported by caring hands-on assists. Students working with injuries and healing are welcome

Yin
Yin Yoga is a passive style of yoga, associated with Chinese Meridian theory, in which poses are held for minutes at a time before releasing. Yin works at the level of connective tissues and promotes circulation along the energetic pathways. It releases deeply held tension below the musculature, boosts organ function, and promotes emotional wellness. It is an ideal complement to movement-based, yang-oriented activities
