Anusara® Yoga is one of the most spiritually inspiring, therapeutically effective, and physically transformative styles of hatha yoga. Anusara means "flowing with Grace." Developed by John Friend, it is a uniquely integrated approach to yoga in which the art of the human spirit powerfully blends with the science of biomechanics. Anusara Yoga integrates the celebration of the heart, Universal Principles of Alignment™, and balanced energetic action in the performance of asana. It taps into the freedom, fullness and beauty of your mind, body and spirit.

The Kripalu tradition emphasizes slowing down and connecting movement with breath to awaken and unite energy in the body, mind, and spirit. Honoring each individual’s body and limits, modifications to postures and stretches are integrated to create safety and strengthening. This Sunday evening practice will be a gentle, supportive, and grounding way to prepare for the week ahead and shed any of “yesterday’s” baggage. Each class begins with a centering, and then gradually moves into gentle warm-ups that stretch and prepare the entire body for yoga postures (asanas) and the deeper stretching that follows. Class will close with a deep relaxation (savasana) to restore the body’s energy and absorb the benefits of the practice. Students of all fitness levels and experience are welcome.
