Beginner Classes

Candlelight Restorative Yoga

Settle in to this body, this breath in this 75 minute class. We will only lay in a few poses, each supported by bolsters and blocks which allow the body to deeply relax into the pose. It is important to wear layers as the body tends to cool down during certain postures.  This class is perfect for both beginners and advanced yogis, a space where we will move slow to go deep. So often we move very fast with little to no awareness of our bodies and minds. Restorative practice is an amazing opportunity to give back to and restore energy within the body. 

​Gentle Yoga

Gentle Yoga is a slower-paced class where students learn proper alignment in basic poses.  Use of props is encouraged.  We explore balance, flexibility, and the connection between movement and breath.  This class is suitable for all levels including those new to yoga and for experienced practitioners seeking more yin.

 Qigong is a wonderful complement to a Yoga practice and a powerful healing therapy when one needs to take a break from asana practice. Each student will have the opportunity to tailor the class to their individual needs.

Express Yoga

Everyone can make time for self-care and start the week right with express yoga. This 45-minute class is just what you need to release stress and calm the mind. This gentle, yet challenging class will flow at a slower pace. We will tune into our breath and explore each pose with mindfulness and joy. Beginners are welcome. Can’t find a sitter? No problem! Kids 10 and over are also welcome with a parent or guardian. We will have opportunities to incorporate partner poses as well. 


Meditation
