Vinyasa Flow

The Vinyasa style of yoga is the most popular form of yoga in the west. In a Vinyasa flow lesson it's all about breath led/connected movement. You move from one pose to another, seamlessly, using breath. The breath determines the tempo of the movements and creates the "flow". It’s a meditation in motion, almost like a dance. Vinyasa classes offer a variety of postures and no two classes are ever alike

Good for: strength, flexibility, & rejuvenation 


Hot Yoga

Hot Yoga strengthens and deeply cleanses the system adding intensity to the work that you would normally get in practice and raises the level of purification exponentially. Doing the same basic practice that you would in a regular temperature room, you will work harder in a heated and humidified room. Your body will get stronger, and remove far more toxins from the system.Aside from bone strength, supporting body weight while maintaining a pose can help improve bone mineral density..A classic HOT yoga class has a 40 degrees room temp. Other HOT classes like Strength or Yin will have a 28/30 degrees room temp. More info on our HOT page!


Iyengar

Iyengar yoga emphasizes alignment while developing strength, stamina, flexibility and balance.

This style of yoga has a strong physical emphasis and the major focus is body alignment. Poses are held for extended periods of time before moving into the next. This makes it a more static practice. Iyengar yoga is also known for using props (blocks, belts, bolsters, chairs, etc.) to help you to experience correct alignment in a pose.

Also suitable for people with restrictions and/or injuries.

Iyengar Yoga is named after and developed by B. K. S. Iyengar, who, together with Pattabhi Jois (foudner of  Ashtanga yoga)  studied  with Sri Krishnamacharya. Both styles have laid the foundation for most forms of yoga known in the west today.

Good for: strength, flexibility, technique. 

All levels.


Yoga&Strength

Yoga&Strength

This class is designed to build strength in a mindful way it’s “the art of controlled movement” The 'core' of the class is strengthening ALL muscles related to our ‘core’. In this class we will not only be targeting the superficial core muscles but also working into the deeper postural muscles and muscle groups supporting the core. It improves flexibility, builds strength,  improves coordination/balance in the entire body. It’s also a great way to support your other practices. Combined with yoga stretches you get the best of both.

Good for: Everyone. 


Hatha

Hatha yoga is the foundation of all physical yoga. However in the west it is know for being a more static class compared to Vinyasa. Vinyasa. We move in a lower paste making it a practice perfect for exploring what’s HERE in the moment; body, mind&spirit. It doesn’t necessary mean you don’t have to work! Longer holds can be part of the class (building stamina) Sometimes this class is a bit more firey and other times the focus is on nurturing depending on the theme of the class. For ALL practitioners!!

Good for: curiosity, flexibility, a little bit of strength


Ashtanga LED

Ashtanga LED In the Led Primary classes, students are verbally guided through a traditional set sequence of postures known as the Primary Series. Students develop steadiness of breath, mental focus, and core awareness during the uninterrupted flow. We follow the classic five breath count and move through the series in an uninterrupted, rhythmic and meditative flow. Breathe, sweat, focus.

Due to the repetitive character of this class is know for building stamina strength and inner focus.

Good for: Students who like a stronger moving practice.

YinYang

Yin Yang Yoga blends two styles of yoga into one practice - bringing together the benefits of passively holding yoga poses with more dynamic sequences and standing postures. Yang Yoga, in contrast, refers to a more active practice working on the (Yang) muscles and blood flow, building strength, stamina and flexibility. Followed by (yin) the quieter part where you work on stimulating the connective tissue with which you improve the mobility of your joints.

Good for: building strength, stamina and flexibility.


Yin

Yin yoga stretches and targets both the deep connective tissues between the muscles, and the fascia throughout the body. The aim is to increase circulation in the joints and improve flexibility as the poses stretch and exercise the bone and joint areas. The yoga postures are passive in nature but certainly not less intensive, because they are held for a long time (5 minutes). In addition, you have all the time in the postures to become aware of your thoughts and to notice where your attention is. Mind-training is therefore an essential part of yin yoga. Yin teaches us to find a place of comfort in a not-so-comfortable place and observe our thoughts and reactions from a perspective of calmness. It is a practice that can be brought into our daily lives. Good for everyone.


Breathwork

Breath is prana (life-force) literally our lifestream. There would be no life without the breath. There is so much to tell from the way you breathe. By breathing in the right way you can bring peace and balance back into an often over-stimulated nervous system.

Breathwork is to support people in achieving a greater sense of self-awareness and capacity for self-healing.Experience how your breath is closely connected to everything you do.  …Buddha used to say start with breathing, because it is the most simple thing in the world. So simple that you don’t do it, it happens on its own. Not all breathing exercises are safe for all conditions therefore inform teacher before class if you suffer from one of the following contra indications: bi-polar, schizophrenia, cardiovascular disease, acute heart conditions/ heart attack in past, epilepsy, glaucoma, detached retina, diagnosed brain or abdominal aneurysm, uncontrolled diabetes, thyroid conditions, high blood pressure, or delicate pregnancy and first trimester (first three months) of pregnancy.

Good for: a greater sense of self-awareness and capacity for self-healing.

 


Yoga Nidra

Yoga Nidra literally means yogic sleep. It is an ancient technique where the practitioner enters the deep states of conscious relaxation. It is a systematic practice of moving awareness from our external world to the inner world.

It brings us to a state of deep sleep where our senses, intellect, and mind relax. We become free from the concepts of time, space and reason. When this happens, brain activity reduces and the body goes in the healing state. Therefore, it is also said that one hour of yoga Nidra can give the same benefit of a four-hour sleep. As the body enters a healing state, you can clear up the toxins at a cellular level, refresh the mind and remove baggage from the subconscious.

Yoga nidra is not the same as shavasana, the end of your yogaclass when you relax down for the last 5 minutes: Shavasana is a yoga asana, a posture. Yoga Nidra is a state of consciousness, in between sleep and awake. It is complete relaxation of the body, while the mind stays awake. Proper use of Shavasana may allow one to experience Yoga Nidra, but the two are independent concepts. 

Good for: Everyone who needs to slow down.


MindfulRunning

Mindfulness is the art of keeping your mind in the present. You're not dwelling on the past or worrying about the future, but rather focusing on what you're doing. Being mindful is reminding yourself that you're in control of your thoughts and your body.

For runners, being mindful means paying attention to how their physical sensations, thoughts, and emotions are responding to running, and how they're all connected. Runners like to advise each other, "Run the mile you're in." Mindfulness is doing just that—staying focused on your run, your movements, your body, and your thoughts. Mindful running teaches us to cultivate an awareness of the present moment the "here and now".

A physical and mental training: meditation in movement with deep stretching.
For all levels.
