Yoga & Aerial Yoga
YOGA and AERIAL YOGA are gentle ways to work on your strength and flexibility while promoting relaxation, reducing stress and creating better body awareness and mindfulness. We offer all-level classes in Vinyasa and Aerial Yoga. In both classes students are guided through a full-body sequence focusing on opening and strengthening the body. Aerial Yoga utilizes aerial hammocks in a low level position to gently support restorative poses and help you get deeper into your stretches.

All Levels Vinyasa Flow
Vinyasa Flow incorporates alignment, body awareness, mindful breathing, and creative sequences of yoga postures to rejuvenate the body and refresh the mind. Modifications are offered throughout the practice to add an extra challenge or create more ease in the body; the intensity of the class is always yogi’s choice.
Beginners VInyasa Flow
Power VInyasa
Power Vinyasa is a powerful, energizing flow synced with the breath. Poses will be held for longer periods with a focus on building strength. Students will flow through Sun A, Sun B, balancing postures, core strengthening, and end with more restorative poses. This class is suitable for all levels with modifications and props available to accommodate each student. Students are always encouraged to listen to their own bodies and take any rests if needed.
Slow Flow VInyasa
Slow flow vinyasa moves much slower than a standard vinyasa class. The focus is more meditative to allow peace and calm in the mind and body. Students will be lead through rounds of Sun As and flows, but at a slower pace with more of a focus on the breath. Restorative poses may be held for longer periods of time allowing the body to sink deeper. This class is suitable for all levels with modifications and props available to accommodate each student.
Slow Deep Stretch Yoga
Deep stretch: as the seasons change, we are called to turn inward. This is a non flow, slow moving class that focuses on passive yin poses held for longer periods of time. Channeling the body’s deep connective tissues promotes flexibility, better circulation, improved organ health and release of blockages in nadis (energy centers of the body). Guided meditation and structured rest will support deep relaxation and stress management.
Yin Yoga & Tea
Wind down from your busy week with some yin yoga and an energizing tea blend. We’ll move through a series of yin poses to help relieve stress and tension from the mind and body. Poses are held for a longer period of time, typically 3-10 minutes each. You’ll hold each pose in a comfortable position, using props such as bolsters, blankets, blocks, and straps. This practice is less focused on alignment and finding your deepest stretch, but more on holding a pose for longer periods of time and allowing the body to surrender to the posture. This allows you to use your breath to find some comfort in the discomfort, both in your body and in your mind. We’ll end our practice by offering Holistic Tea Formulas after savasana rejuvenating you for the weekend. We have locally prepared tea formulas from Harris Holistic Wellness. All Certified Organic and Fair Trade, ethically sourced from around the world.
Restore & Refresh Yoga
Start your week with a grounded gentle flow. This class will focus on opening and energizing the body through gentle stretches and more restorative postures. You’ll leave feeling rejuvenated and refreshed, ready for the week!
This class is suitable for all levels with modifications and props available to accommodate each student. Students are always encouraged to listen to their own bodies and take any rests if needed.
Pilates Mat
Pilates Mat will take you through the classical mat sequence ranging from beginning to intermediate level focusing on the principles and fundamentals of Pilates. This is a great class to build core strength, flexibility, coordination, and a connection to mind, body and spirit. We will use various props including pilates ball, stability ball, straps, blankets, pilates ring, and a weighted bar to help assist and go deeper into your practice. Mat work is a great addition to reformer and offers a greater challenge by using your own body weight in the movements.
TRX Pilates
TRX is a suspension trainer that hangs from the ceiling at a single anchor point. It creates instability and uses gravity as your resistance. This requires a high level of core activation and control. The straps give instant feedback to help identify imbalances in the body. The TRX is great for all levels because you can adjust your own level of difficulty by adjusting your body, hands, and feet. TRX is a great compliment to the Pilates mat repertoire because it gives many variations and an additional challenge. In this class you will see many of the same exercises that you would perform on the mat or the reformer but with a fun variation.
Intro to Aerial Yoga
This is a beginner level class which uses the silks in a low level position to help introduce the student to the fabric and aerial yoga. It offers easy use for students to help gain confidence lower to the ground before moving up to a higher level fabric, but still pushes the body towards a better flexibility and a more open mind.
Aerial Yoga
This is an all-levels class where students use aerial hammocks to gently support aerial poses and mindful stretches. Aerial yoga is great foundation for aerial dance. You will learn many of the aerial postures while focusing on conditioning, strength building, flexibility, inverting, and balance, all which are very important to aerial dance. The class ends with a long relaxation stage in the hammock cocoon.
