Beginning Yogis
Basic/Intro
We recommend starting with one of the Basic/Intro classes as an introduction to yoga, basic postures and breathing technique. For additional variety also explore any of the Yin or Yin & Yang classes which are also appropriate for beginners. If you are new to White Lotus, please arrive for your first class a few minutes early to complete a new student form. Parking is available in both the front and back of the building and we have both front and rear door entrances. Mats are available for a $1-per-day rental fee. Our average class temperature is a comfortable 75 degrees. Yin classes are slightly cooler which is more conducive to deep stretching of connective tissues and joints. Temperatures for our 'Hot' classes range between 80-85 degrees to gently heat up the muscles for greater flexibility. We are not a Bikram studio and our class temperature does not exceed approx. 85 degrees, as we do not believe there are health benefits beyond this temperature range
All About AIReal Yoga!
White Lotus is one of only select studios in the entire metro-Detroit area offering Aerial Yoga and all of our instructors are AIReal YogaTM certified - the only aerial yoga certification endorsed by Yoga Alliance. http://www.airealyoga.com/. AIReal YogaTM is similar to a traditional Yoga practice but with the added benefit of a soft, fabric hammock suspended a few feet off the ground. The hammock is a prop, like a strap or block, intended to assist alignment, deepen awareness, and provide the immediate benefits of spinal decompression. With the weight of the body partially or fully supported, along with the help of gravity, you can explore and create space in your body - but without the limitations of the floor! Absent compression of the joints and spine in an aerial hammock (as is the case when standing or seated on the floor) you can achieve proper posture and alignment through relaxation, rather than effort, to find a more balanced and unencumbered expression of each pose. GET IN A HAPPY MOOD: A key benefit of AIReal YogaTM is that it gets your adrenaline going and releases "HAPPY" hormones like serotonin, endorphins, and dopamine to boost your mood and feel more energetic. Whether this is your first time taking an aerial yoga class or you have some aerial experience, our instructors tailor each class to the needs of the participants attending that day. You will learn proper cues and placement of the hammock to make AIReal Yoga a safe and fun experience. Each class includes flowing postures, deep stretches, toning of the core, and aerial inversions for a safe way to open the body into a state of health. At the end of all of our AIReal YogaTM classes enjoy a relaxing savasana enveloping and cradling your body like a floating cocoon! Please pre-register online for each AIReal YogaTM class you wish to attend on a first-come, first-serve basis as space is limited. Payment is required in advance to hold your spot. AIReal YogaTM classes may be purchased individually, as packages, or as an addition to Monthly Unlimited Yoga and are not included as part of the 10 Classes for $29 New Student Offer or regular yoga class packages (see Pricing page for details). Dress comfortably with regular yoga attire and avoid very loose fitting clothing. Long sleeves and yoga pants vs. shorts are recommended. Please leave jewelry such as earrings, large rings, dangling bracelets and watches at home to avoid catching or tearing of the aerial hammocks

We'll learn to use a pendulum to see which chakras in your body are open or closed.

Usui/Holy Fire Reiki Levels I & II
Register for both Reiki I & Reiki II for only $225 ($45 savings). Reiki is an ancient Japanese healing modality for the mind and body - a practice of channeling universal life energy with healing light and love. Activating healing energy involves opening and tuning the heart, third eye, and crown chakras to higher frequencies. Once attuned to Reiki, you can apply this healing practice to yourself and others as well as complement your Yoga practice. Reiki Master, Peggy Klauer, will guide you in meditations connecting to higher light vibrations, provide initiation through Usui Reiki lineage, and teach the guidelines for a healing energy practice. You will learn application and practice of symbols, chakra balancing and working with natural healing energy. Peggy received Reiki Master Level from William Lee Rand, founder of the International Center for Reiki Training. Upon completion of the course you will receive a signed certificate of completion for your Reiki I or II certification. Attend one or both Reiki I or Reiki II sessions depending upon your current Reiki experience. Reiki Level I is a beginner class open to all. However, you must be certified at Reiki Level I to attend the Reiki II session. If not already Reiki certified, we highly recommend attending both sessions consecutively to continue the flow of the higher vibration from your Reiki I attunement to the following Reiki II session and to optimize the healing energy you receive in each class. The effects are so amazing you won't want the journey to end!

All About Aireal Yoga
Aireal Yoga is similar to a traditional Yoga practice but with the added benefit of a soft, fabric hammock suspended a few feet off the ground.
The hammock is a prop, like a strap or block, intended to assist alignment, deepen awareness, and provide the immediate benefits of spinal decompression. Aireal Yoga is a wonderful way to expand your practice and create a toned body for an overall healthier you.
With the weight of the body partially or fully supported, along with the help of gravity, you can explore and create space in your body - but without the limitations of the floor!
Absent compression of the joints and spine in an aerial hammock (as is the case when standing or seated on the floor), you can achieve proper posture and alignment through relaxation, rather than effort, to find a more balanced and unencumbered expression of each pose.
Get in Happy Mood
A key benefit of Aireal Yoga is that it gets your adrenaline going and releases "Happy" hormones like serotonin, endorphins, and dopamine to boost your mood and feel energetic.
Aireal Yoga Classes
Whether this is your first time taking an aireal yoga class or you have some aerial experience
Our instructors tailor each class to the needs of the participants attending the day - beginners are always welcome. You will learn proper cues and placement of the hammock to make Aireal Yoga a safe and fun experience.
Each class includes flowing postures, deep stretches, toning of the core and aerial inversions for the safe way to open the body into a state of health.
At the end of all of our aireal yoga classes enjoy a relaxing savasana enveloping and cradling your body like a floating cocoon!
All of our instructors are Aireal Yoga certified.
The Aireal Yoga classes we teach and the aerial hammocks and rigging equipment we use at White Lotus are the only form of aerial yoga that is recognised and endorsed by the Yoga Alliance.

Aireal Yoga Health Benefits
Due to the nature of Aireal Yoga movements, virtually all of the body is engaged to move and stretch. Muscles are toned and redefined, and joints are regenerated and strengthened from these movements.
Improves Flexibility
Aireal Yoga helps you to move freely, with less effort, by counteracting gravity. Suspension in the air releases tension on the bones and muscles, increasing flexibility and deepening your practice. Suspended yoga strengthens core muscles and increases spinal and shoulder flexibility.
Eases Back Pain
Aireal Yoga enables you to hang freely, allowing your spine to lengthen. With less strain in your back, it eases tension in the spinal cord and hip joints helping you feel better. Anytime we can create space within joints, muscles and connective tissues it is of great healing benefit.
Increases Strength
Aireal Yoga improves strength and flexibility, which carries into over other daily activities. The core workout is beneficial for feeling healthier and standing taller with confidence. A toned core is a healthy and energetic feeling.
Stay Young at Heart
Aireal Yoga helps improve the circulation of blood, thus combating aging and its symptoms. Aireal Yoga also helps detoxify the circulatory and lymphatic systems which lowers the onset of various cardiovascular issues.
Psychological Benefits
