Yin Yoga

Targeting deep connective tissues, a Yin Yoga pose is formed by slow movements and held for three to five minutes. Your instructor will guide you to find your “edge” and then settle in. Participants will stay in poses allowing tissues to respond to slow, sustained holds. Poses are mainly on the floor and encourage relaxation. Music will include nature sounds and will mostly be instrumental. Be “Yinspired” and try this progressive form of yoga!

In a gentle way, you can shake the world.” – Ghandi

Hatha Yoga

This class will include elements from the many styles of Hatha Yoga. Your instructor will emphasize alignment, flow from posture to posture, a series of poses, and holds for four or five natural breaths. Intensity will vary throughout the hour. This well-known style will include favorites such as Mountain, Cat & Cow, Forward Bend, and Triangle Poses. The music will include a mix of upbeat popular favorites to old school tunes.

Now and then it’s good to pause in our pursuit of happiness, and just be happy.” – Guillaume Apollinaire

Mindfulness

Pay attention on purpose, and be present in the moment. Focus on breathing while sitting or lying flat. Blankets and props are welcome. This practice will allow you to quiet the mind and relieve the negative effects of stress from your day. Your instructor will provide soothing sounds/music and occasionally narrate guided imagery scripts.

I wish I could show you, when you are lonely or in darkness, the astonishing light of your own being.” – Hafiz

Chair Yoga

Chair Yoga focuses on stretching and strengthening different parts of the body in a soft and gentle way.  It is perfect for office workers, college students, commuters, or anyone who has limited range of motion  and is forced to remain less active due to circumstances beyond their control. All you need is your body and your breathe…and a chair!   A chair can be a great prop and the quality of this exercise can lead to remarkable outcomes.

“Chair pose is a defiance of spirit, showing how high you can reach even when you are forced down.”  – Terri Guillemets
