CLASSES FILL QUICKLY!
Register soon to avoid disappointment


YOGA 1/BEGINNER

is the introductory class for students who are new to Yoga. This class focuses on poses to stretch and strengthen the legs, back, and shoulders. Emphasis
is given to the basic alignment of the standing poses.

GENTLE YOGA 1
is designed for those who prefer a class less vigorous than Yoga 1. It includes gentle stretches and breathing as well as simple movements designed to systematically increase the range of motion of every major joint and increase energy. This class is ideal for students with chronic symptoms such as muscle/joint pain, stiffness, weakness, or fatigue.

GENTLE YOGA 2
is a continuation of Gentle Yoga 1, emphasizing the refinement of Gentle Yoga 1 poses and introducing the basic Anusara Yoga® principles. This class will focus on strengthening the body and adapting poses to protect injured or weak joints. New breathing and relaxation techniques will be introduced as well. This class is more strenuous than Gentle Yoga 1 and students must complete at least two sessions of Gentle Yoga 1 before taking Gentle Yoga 2.

YOGA 1-2
is a continuation class for Yoga 1. The emphasis of this course is on refining and building endurance in Yoga 1 and Yoga 2 standing poses. It does not include the shoulder stand. The basic Anusara Yoga® principles of alignment are presented. This class is suitable for students who have practiced other styles of yoga, but it is not suitable for those who have never studied yoga before.

YOGA 2/ADVANCED BEGINNER 

focuses on refining the standing poses and learning basic sitting postures, simple back bending poses, and the shoulder stand using the Anusara Yoga® principles of alignment. It is recommended that students complete both Yoga 1 and Yoga 1-2 before taking Yoga 2.

YOGA 2-3
is a combination class. It begins with Yoga 2 poses and moves gradually into Yoga 3 poses, particularly strengthening poses for the upper body in preparation for the headstand and handstand. The headstand is the major pose learned in this course. Students should complete at least three sessions of Yoga 2 before taking Yoga 2-3.

YOGA 3/INTERMEDIATE
continues with refinements to poses studied in Yoga 1 and 2 and introduces the headstand, forearm balance, and full arm balance (handstand). Additional back bend poses are also included. Regular yoga practice outside of class is strongly encouraged. It is recommended that students complete at least three sessions of Level 2 and one session of Level 2-3 before taking Yoga 3.

YOGA 4/ADVANCED

is for students who are capable of holding a free-standing headstand, can do a full arm balance (hand-stand) alone at the wall, and who can push up into Urdhva Dhanurasana (Upward Facing Bow Pose) with straight arms. Regular practice is expected. Permission of the instructor is required.

VINYASA YOGA 1
Come join us and step in to the flow! Vinyasa flow yoga is a series of movements and poses sequenced and coordinated with the breath. Each movement connects with the next, gradually warming, stretching and strengthening the entire body. Since Vinyasa is a more strenuous format, this class is open only to those students who have completed at least two sessions of Yoga 2 or who have a strong Vinyasa based practice (Ashtanga or power based flows).

VINYASA YOGA 2
The flow moves forward! This class builds on Vinyasa
Yoga 1 and moves toward full backbends as well as
arm balancings such as Crane and Handstand. Students should be free of major injuries, able to move repetitively from Chaturanga to Upward Facing Dog and be able to practice shoulder stand in the center of the room. Students must have completed 3 sessions of Vinyasa Yoga 1 or have the permission of the instructor. Suitable as a make-up class for students in Yoga 4.

YIN YANG YOGA
is a combination of quiet stationary poses and flowing sequences of poses. The Yin practice is designed to work our connective tissues and to protect the health of our joints. The Yin practice is a perfect complement to the more muscular, movement-oriented Yang practices of yoga which include Sun Salutes, Vinyasas, and Paul Grilley’s Tai-chi/Yoga Flows. This class is suitable for students who have completed at least one session of Yoga 2.

PRENATAL YOGA
is for pregnant women. This class is designed to help you stay relaxed and healthy throughout pregnancy and to prepare you for delivery. It is fun and appropriate for both new and experienced yoga students. Please obtain your doctor’s or midwife’s permission in writing before enrolling.

YOGA FOR LIL KIDS (ages 3-5)
This class encourages younger children to experience
yoga. Using yoga postures in games, stories, adventures, and songs, children improve motor skills, flexibility, balance, strength, concentration and self esteem while having fun. Children will also be introduced to relaxation and breathing techniques. All children must be potty trained.

YOGA FOR KIDS (ages 6-11)
This class is designed to help children build strength and flexibility, concentration and focus, compassion and self-esteem through the playful practice of yoga postures. Kids will have fun as they improve their posture, motor coordination and balance. Yoga poses will help children cope with the conflicts and stress of a very hectic world. A child who learns yoga will develop skills that will last a lifetime.

TEENS YOGA (ages 12-17)
Life can be very busy and stressful for teens these days. This class gives teens the opportunity to participate in a nurturing activity that provides exercise for the total body as well as relaxation techniques that can be used for school, sports, performing arts, sleep improvement, and life skills. Yoga allows teens to find strength and flexibility through practice and patience. Skills developed through yoga will last a lifetime.
