Which class is right for you?

Beginning Yoga Course

who's it for? New & returning students to Iyengar yoga

Wednesdays @ 10am
Saturdays @ 12:15pm

In this dynamically paced class, we work with foundational poses and lots of movement as we begin a conversation with our body & mind through the practice of Iyengar Yoga.

Each class builds on the previous week, learning through both repetition and addition.

We explore movement and stability through standing & seated postures and beginning inversions.

This series can be repeated as many times as you like, creating a beautiful foundation for your home practice and further yoga studies.

12 week series begins Feb 25/28

Yoga for Elders & Elders to Be

who's it for? Those who carry a lifetime of wisdom in their bones & in their cells, and would like a slower paced class. Beginners Welcome.

Thursdays @ 1:30-2:45pm

In this class, we explore how to:

• create mobility and stability in the body and mind
• build up our strength and stamina
• and quiet the brain even when the body is active.

And we do all that with lots of joy and laughter. You don't need to be an elder to join this class. Elders in training are welcome as well.

Continuing Yoga

who's it for? Continuing Beginners: students with 6 months+ Iyengar Yoga study & returning students, and you're working on Shoulderstand or your alternative

Thursdays @ 10am

This is a continuation of Beginning Yoga. Each class builds on the previous week, as we learn new poses in stages throughout the month.

Lots of movement and more refinements of foundational poses. And learn more including: twists, forward bends, back extensions, and more inversions.

You've learned the basics, and now, you're ready for what's next.

Continuing Yoga Series will run through May, as we continue to learn more poses each month through the winter and spring.

Intermediate Yoga

who's it for? Students with 1 year+ Iyengar Yoga study, and you're working on Shoulderstand & Headstand or your alternatives

Saturdays @ 10:15-11:45am

In this class, we move through the 4 week cycle: Standing poses, Forward bends, Back extensions, and Restorative & Pranayama. More refined and subtle actions as we revisit foundational poses. And learn more including: more inversions, abdominals & arm balances, twists, pranayama, and more.
