and revitalizing twists….

Candlelight Yoga

Indulge in the ultimate yoga experience.

Soft music and candlelight soothes the soul
as you flow through various yoga moves.

Quietly paced exploration of postures,
breathing techniques and meditation emphasizing
breath and stretches to increase range of motion,
strength and stability.

You will slowly flow through poses,
allowing your body to relax, yet leave you
feeling spacious inside and exhilarated.

Welcomes “new-to-yoga” students!.

A steady & patient class exploring postures, breathing
techniques and meditation. A great way for
new students to get acquainted with yoga.

individual attention from the teacher.

of those poses that are the foundation of
a solid yoga practice.

Yin & Yang of Yoga!

“Going with the Flow”
takes on whole new meaning…

You will build heat, stamina,
strength and endurance
by merging breath and movement
with a flow of postures
that works all major muscle groups.

Shall We Dance?

Blends fluidity of yoga
with sheer pleasure of dance.
A lovely fusion of movement,
breath and inner rhythm, inviting you
to be sway, hum, shake your booty
and to be loyally, royally YOU…

Equal parts asana flow, intuitive yoga,
and trance dance, this class will
root you to the earth, make your
body hum & vibrate, and give you
wings to fly…all at the same time.

Together, we’ll shimmy, shake,
move & groove, strengthen, soften,
embrace, let go and tune-in.

“Shall We Dance” class is open to all levels…
the very young to the young-at-heart!

……..

Partner Yoga

There is no giver, there is no receiver.
In partner yoga, all partners are fully engaged
in their own experience. Partner yoga
expands yoga from “me” to “we”
and it deepens the impact of the yoga practice.
(Partners can be romantic or simply friends. )

“When two people hold a pose together,
each partner experiences more energy
than he or she contributes and many
subtle lessons of relationship are
demonstrated. Each learns how to
give and take, to brace and embrace,
and to literally bend over backward
to assist the other. The partners
learn to communicate nonverbally,
to flow together, to develop
poise and symmetry.”
