ANUSARA: A powerful system of yoga in which physical action integrates with inner awareness. Classes can be athletic, centering and calming, energizing and fun. They incorporate sound alignment and uplifting themes. A flow of postures, demonstrations, individual attention and modifications, yoga breathing and meditation are woven together within the expanded connection to self and to life.

This class is offered periodically in a variety of days and times.

YIN/VINYASA: Combination class - the first half of the class is a yin practice taken from the Taoist tradition consisting of passive poses held for a time to balance the subtle energy body and create mindfulness. It is followed by an hour of soft vinyasa flow to balance yin and yang energies.

Classes cover use of breath, simple alignment principles, and instruction to the classic foundational postures of yoga.
