Yoga 4 Emotional Release
90-minute HEATED, currently offered Monday mornings
This is a 90-minute HEATED class and is filled with various poses to target our hips (specifically psoas) in order to begin to unpack stored trauma, to relieve pent-up stress, to detox and to reduce pain. We will end class with a relaxed emotional release technique. But in order to get to that point, be prepared to get your heart rate up, to sweat buckets, and to stretch and strengthen muscle groups encompassing our hips. This class also uses light dumbbells, sometimes just once or twice through class or throughout the entire sequence. As with all of our classes, this class is also perfect for ALL levels, as each pose can be modified to meet your needs. You are in control of your entire practice.
*This class is perfect if you are looking for a cardio-intensive workout with your practice or to explore more depth within your practice.
**This class can be modified ALL fitness levels and for ALL practitioners of yoga.
Yoga 4 A Stronger You
75-minute HEATED Vinyasa, currently offered every other Tues evening
Our Strength sequence is a 75-minute HEATED POWER class known for its fluid, movement-intensive practice. Each pose is linked together, flowing smoothly as you transition from pose to pose. You will find that you are stronger than you think as you flow along the mat testing your physical and mental limits. The tempo may be fast or slowed down to find our strength and power. Keep in mind that although our work on the mat can be challenging, each pose can be modified for all fitness levels. You are in control of your entire practice.

Yoga 4 Surrendering 
60-minute HEATED Yin, currently offered every other Tues evening
**BEGINNER FRIENDLY**
Our surrender class is a change of pace from our vinyasa (flow) and restorative classes. This is a 60-minute HEATED YIN yoga class. For those not familiar with yin yoga…yin is a type of restorative class. Postures in this class are more passive than those in our flow classes. We focus on gently stretching the deep connective tissues surrounding the joints (hips, knees, spine, sacrum). To protect these delicate areas as we work joint strength and flexibility, we hold the poses for 3-5 minutes. Our time in holding the poses will test our mental strength to remain still as we learn to listen to our bodies. During this time, we have to surrender our “normal” way of thinking within any workout. We have to practice disengaging our larger muscle groups and release through the connective tissues. “Being still” through the poses also offers an opportunity for a more meditative, prayerful practice. Through this class, we must surrender physically and hopefully mentally and spiritually, as well. This class is for any and everyone. Yin is a great complement to other styles of yoga and forms of exercise. It helps us to learn to be comfortable with the uncomfortable and asks us to surrender, to “just be”, to be still, to listen, and to accept where we are in that given moment.
*This class is perfect in getting you acclimated to our heated environment if you’ve never tried heated yoga.
**This class is for ALL fitness levels and for ALL practitioners of yoga.
Yoga 4 Adaptability
60-minute UNHEATED Chair Yoga, currently offered Wed mornings
**BEGINNER FRIENDLY**
This is our 60-minute NON-HEATED CHAIR yoga class…a great way to introduce your body to yoga. The use of a chair will provide support and stability. It will minimize us from repeatedly getting up and down from the floor, but it will also put our bodies into better alignment through some of our standing postures. Our work in this class focuses on adaptability to all of the bumps life throws at us. Our gentle movements are intentionally set to help improve our functionality through everyday life, through the most mundane of tasks, while improving balance, strength and flexibility.
*This class is intended for, but not limited to, beginners and those apprehensive to a heated yoga class.
**This class if perfect for those that physically cannot get up and down from the floor or that cannot put pressure on the knees.
Yoga 4 Acceptance
60-minute UNHEATED GENTLE, currently offered Thurs mornings
**BEGINNER FRIENDLY**
Our Acceptance sequence is a 60-minute UNHEATED class that focuses on linking every movement to the breath. In this class we will follow the same set series of poses each time. This will allow you time to discover new depths within the poses and to find acceptance through each pose. The postures provide opportunities to increase strength and flexibility with each class. This class is a gentle flow, but accept where you are on your journey because some days will feel more challenging than others.
*This class is for ALL fitness levels and for ALL practitioners of yoga.
**This class is intended for, but not limited to, beginners and those apprehensive to a heated yoga class.
Yoga 4 Restoration
60-minute HEATED STRETCHING, currently offered Friday mornings
**BEGINNER FRIENDLY**
This is a 60-minute HEATED class offered on Fridays. After a long, hard week, give this class a try to relax and soothe frayed nerves. This is a slow-paced class, using props to help you through the poses. We focus on improving flexibility while relieving tension in the hips, lower back, along the spine, and neck/shoulders. Our use of props allows the body to experience the benefits of a pose without having to exert a lot of effort. This class is restorative and will set you up for a calmer mind and hopefully some profound rest.
*This class is perfect for beginners and for those new to heated yoga.
**This class is for ALL fitness levels and for ALL practitioners of yoga.
