The basis of a strong yoga posture is understanding the posture from the feet up, it can give you a feeling of solidity you have never experienced before. To help expand your posture knowledge, each week we will focus on one of 6 categories: standing postures, forward bends, back bends, twists, hips, arms/core. We begin with breath focus, and ease into a properly balanced asana practice. Close attention is paid to alignment suitable for your body. Posture variations will be offered for those ready for more challenge. Appropriate for all levels, especially those who want to work on posture alignment. Recommended for those with asthma, anxiety, depression, stress, and also as prenatal yoga. 6-week continuous cycle.

Yoga is beneficial for every body. Whether you have movement restrictions or full mobility this class is sure to provide what your body and mind need to become a more balanced you. Decompress from your busy-ness, and get in touch with yourself. The experience begins with a breath practice and short meditation, smoothly transitioning to light stretching and gentle yoga movements. We will then transition into a restorative yoga practice. Using yoga props, you relax into postures for prolonged periods of time. With the props supporting the body, the body is able to relax on a deeper level. The stillness of the posture allows your body to rejuvenate, your nervous system to calm, and your whole being to feel peace, which is your natural state. With your mind and body relaxed, and your consciousness remaining alert, you are naturally guided towards health and well being. You feel refreshed and renewed as your body and soul begin to awaken. Pranayama, breath-exercise, is integrated throughout. Recommended for relaxation, and those with anxiety, arthritis, asthma, back pain, cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, fibromyalgia, stress, and also as prenatal yoga.

This class is for those looking to go deeper within yoga. We will start with ISHTA Meditation (a meditation taught where I did my teacher training with in NY). There are many steps to this meditation: including asanas (postures) to open the body to prepare it to sit, pranayama breath-exercise practice to begin to purify the mind, kriya (cleansing technique) to direct attention to the spine, a few other processes are involved, and then we will sit in silence and stillness for several minutes (traditionally taught for 18 minutes, we will start between 5 to 10 minutes, and may increase from there). We will then practice mindful asanas in a gentle fashion, explore mantra (a sound, syllable, word, or group of words that are considered capable of creating transformation), and an extended yoga nidra (yogic sleep, a state of conscious deep sleep for extreme relaxation and subtler spiritual exploration). Recommended for those with anxiety, arthritis, asthma, back pain, depression, diabetes, high blood pressure, fibromyalgia, stress, and also as prenatal yoga.
