Deep Stretch & Mobility
Join us in exploring the range of motion your joints have to offer, and work towards strengthening these movements. Class will focus on isolation of hip, shoulder, neck, spine, knee, ankle, and wrist joints to foster healthy mobility on and off the mat. Expect to see a lot of well-known yoga poses to help open and stretch the whole body, so that you leave class feeling ready to take on the weekend. Props may be used to assist in deepening the stretch or to achieve better mobility. All levels welcome.
Tai Chi
Tai chi's path is one of developing naturalness by relaxing, attending inward, and slowing mind, body, and breath. <sup></sup>This allows the practitioner to become less tense, to drop conditioned habits, to let go of thoughts, to allow qi to flow smoothly, and thus to flow. Tai Chi is a kind of moving meditation that allows us to let go of the self and experience no-mind.
Slow Flow
Welcome to our Slow Flow Yoga class, a harmonious fusion of Hatha and Vinyasa Flow styles, offering a serene and intentional practice with a reduced number of transitions compared to traditional Vinyasa. In this class, we seamlessly blend the deliberate alignment and longer holds of Hatha Yoga with the graceful fluidity and breath-centric movement of Vinyasa Flow. With a focus on mindful transitions, you will have the opportunity to cultivate strength, flexibility, and body awareness, while experiencing a meditative flow that promotes a deep sense of presence and inner harmony. Suitable for all levels, this Slow Flow Yoga class invites you to move with grace, find balance, and nourish your body, mind, and soul.
