Yoga Fit

An hour long practice where we build on traditional Hatha poses with weights and props (optional) to increase strength and cardiovascular endurance.

Will it be challenging? Yes!

Is it fun? Yes!

Does it build functional fitness to assist you throughout your daily activities? Yes!

​

Sounds like Win, Win, Win.

Functional Fitness

You will be lead through a range of body weighted strength and mobility exercises to increase strength, mobility, balance and flexibility. This is an opportunity for you to step away from your desk and/or the couch to combat the aches and pains that occur from sitting. I will introduce gentle, exploratory movements to retrain and reawaken the brain and create body awareness from the usual everyday activities.  

**Please note that this class is informal and “workshop-y” and fun is encouraged.
 

Hatha

Hatha yoga uses the breath to create a link between the body and the mind. In this practice, postures are used to align, strengthen and promote flexibility in the body. You will learn to still the mind and be present in the moment. In addition to more flexibility and strength, this practice will lead to all the other usual benefits of yoga--reduced stress, lower blood pressure, more energy and better sleep.

​

Rise & Shine

Experience the benefits of waking up to yoga as you stretch your body, awaken your mind, and fuel your spirit. Salute the sun with a smile and gracefully work out all of the kinks and tightness from your night's sleep. You'll feel energized, have amazing mental clarity, and will be ready to flow through your day with ease.

Hatha Flow

Hatha flow is a dynamic style of Hatha yoga which joins physical postures, or asanas, with inhales and exhales, creating a steady internal rhythm for the practice. Our Flow classes are designed to cultivate heat in the body with creative sequences involving sun salutations, standing and seated postures, back bending, arm balancing, and a strong focus on the power of breath awareness. Flow yoga classes tend to be more vigorous and aerobic, and classes can have a variety of music and themes.
