vinyasa
vinyasa is our only 45minutes class held over lunchtime. vinyasa translates to flowing with breath in a specific sequence. class is a dynamic style of hatha yoga that joins physical postures, or asanas, with inhales and exhales, creating a steady internal rhythm for the practice. our vinyasa 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.
this is a level 1 vinyasa class comprised of foundational vinyasa yoga asana and breathing techniques suitable for all levels including beginners.

yin yang
for balancing energy, flexibility, and strength. yin yang class blends two styles of yoga into one practice – bringing together the benefits of passively holding yoga poses with more dynamic sequences and standing postures. yin and yang is the concept that describes the two relative qualities present in everything. yin is more internal, passive, cooling, and downward. yang is more external, dynamic, warming, and upward.
when these terms are applied in yoga, yin yoga is a slower practice where poses are passively held for longer. it works on the deep, dense (yin) connective tissues and joints in the body. yang yoga, in contrast, refers to more active practice. this works on the (yang) muscles and blood flow, building strength, stamina, and flexibility. yang styles of yoga are those with rhythm and repetition like vinyasa flow. the first 30 mins of the class are paced in yang, and the rest of the 30 mins is restorative in yin.

yin
yin – the opposing energy of yang – is a slow-moving, grounded practice where practitioners hold each posture for around 3-5 minutes (and sometimes as long as 20 minutes). yin yoga is a complementary practice to the muscle- and blood-focused approaches of most other styles of yoga and is intended to deepen the flexibility and elasticity of connective tissues like fascia.
practiced consistently, yin classes may offer increased mobility to joints. yin practices may include props like blocks, blankets, bolsters, or straps. yin yoga tends to be physically less demanding than some other styles of yoga, but internally more demanding as we sit with our sensations and internal dialogue.

hatha vinyasa
hatha vinyasa is a combination of vinyasas (a series of connected movements through breath), asanas (poses), pranayamas (conscious breathing), meditation, and relaxation.
vinyasa is an approach to yoga in which you move from one pose directly into the next. there’s a flow to a vinyasa yoga session, though the specific poses and the pace of the flow vary from one teacher to the next. in a hatha vinyasa style, you will be flowing from one poses with long holds to another. students are individually challenged in sun salutations, peak poses, and deep stretches – all with the intention of cultivating balance in mind and body.

karma vinyasa
our signature karma vinyasa classes are a strong moving flow that cultivates balance, stability, flexibility, and vigor. breath awareness and coordination are carried throughout the practice as the asana ebbs and flows between effort and ease. this class incorporates rhythmic movement and breath while incorporating an awareness of proper alignment. intensity levels & personal style varies by each unique teacher. karma vinyasa classes are organized in a moving sequence that builds strength, coordination, and measured ability across a balanced array of postures.
with attention to the breath and fluid movement, you’ll warm up and flow through a skillful sequence, working toward a peak pose or targeting a specific body part. moving at a vigorous pace with dynamic transitions incorporated, you will hit a sweet spot once you begin to settle down in savasana (corpse pose/final relaxation).

krama vinyasa
krama vinyasa is a step by step progression to prepare the body within certain poses to move into a peak pose or to a certain goal. a goal in this case is a complex or an asana (posture).
to give a little more explanation of the words we have:
vinyasa – which is the principle of synchronizing movement with the breath and
krama – which literally means steps or stages
the crafted progression comes from sequencing which will lead classes by using creative sequence with drills and transitions. the sequence is based on a theme, or the peak poses in mind.

ashtanga vinyasa
this is an ashtanga inspired vinyasa class. students follow a set sequence of postures each time, gradually progressing through the series. ashtanga vinyasa yoga emphasizes the linking of movement and breath (vinyasa), ujjayi breathing, and bandhas (energy locks).
the term vinyasa refers to the alignment of movement and breath but is also used to describe a series of movements used to link each asana in a series. the asana system is a moving meditation with the transition between each pose being as important as the postures themselves.
