Ageless yoga is a great place to begin or build upon your yoga journey no matter your age or condition. Beginners and seasoned yogis alike are welcome, as well as prenatal and postnatal students, seniors, and those who may be suffering from an injury or illness.

This class is specifically geared to students who may have mobility, balance, flexibility, and strength limitations, and would benefit from a supportive class structure. Slow, mindful movement can be highly effective for those who are stiff, prone to or recovering from injury, or have preexisting conditions such as arthritis or Parkinson’s disease. With an emphasis on the functional movement of all major joints, alignment, and breath, this class will work the entire body to enhance strength, stability, and mobility in a safe and systematic way.

Bhakti yoga is the practice of devotion and offers an opportunity to add depth and dimension to your practice. A dynamic Vinyasa flow is the core of a Bhakti Vinyasa class, inviting students to move with intention and in rhythm with the breath. This soulful style of yoga is rooted in yogic philosophy and wisdom, and infused with mantras and insights on how to expand your yoga practice beyond the mat and into everyday life. Classes begin and/or end with live harmonium music and beautiful kirtan (melodic Sanskrit chanting) to set the tone for an uplifting journey into mind, body, and spirit. Bhakti is a celebration of and surrender to the divine within each and every being. Come with an open mind and heart, and leave feeling revitalized and reinspired.

This class offers a dynamic sequence of somatic practice, breathwork, internal energy cultivation, and meditation, designed to support releasing into presence, developing clarity and expansiveness of mind, and grounding.

We’ll begin with gentle somatic practices that help you tune into bodily sensations, release tension, and cultivate embodied awareness. From there, we’ll move into breathwork exercises and energy cultivation techniques to enhance the subtle energy body and foster grounding. After these practices, brief instruction will be provided, and we’ll transition into meditation that integrates different styles. If time allows, we will conclude with an imaginal practice - a guided inner visualization that engages the power of imaginal and felt experience to deepen inner clarity and cultivate qualities of presence and mind such as compassion, courage, spacious awareness, loving-kindness, and more. 

The session concludes with a short Q&A where participants can ask questions related to practice, techniques, wisdom traditions, or any other topic.

This class is designed to engage your whole being - body, breath, subtle energetic system, and mind - to help build awareness of how you experience life and to cultivate the capacity to transform your perception. It’s an ideal way to start the day with clarity, vitality, and an expansive state of being. 

A coreFlow class offers the fluidity and full-body workout of a Vinyasa style flow class with a focus on developing strength and stamina within the deep core muscles of the abdomen, back, and pelvic floor. While yoga poses address the entire body throughout class, specific exercises are incorporated to engage these essential muscles which work together to stabilize the spine, support internal organs and body systems, and promote overall health. This invigorating class will help you build vitality from within for optimal posture, enhanced stability and balance, and improved functional mobility. Challenge your body and mind and support your yoga practice as a whole as you reconnect with your center and empower yourself from the inside out.

Important: This class is not appropriate for pregnant women or brand new mothers who have not yet been cleared for exercise by their physician. It is also not recommended for those with high blood pressure and/or glaucoma.

Happy Hour Yoga offers the opportunity to unwind after work with a fun, flow-style practice. Happy Hour classes feature the fundamentals of flow-style yoga and can be Vinyasa or slowFlow in nature depending on the instructor’s individual approach. Students will concentrate on the asanas (poses) and sequences common to most flow-style classes while also exploring the essential connection between movement and breath. Work to build stamina, strength, and flexibility at a comfortable pace and deepen your personal practice all before the sun sets.

Note: Often, the teachers of Happy Hour Yoga classes are recently qualified graduates from yoga teacher training. While all levels are welcome, is recommended that students have some yoga experience, though it is not required.

A flow based class that offers strong powerful options in many of the poses. The class itself may include asanas such as arm balances, inversions, shoulder stands, and deeper backbends. The sequences offered gives students an opportunity to explore and expand their practice alongside peers who are also enjoying a strong flow and learning the many options of poses.

This class is ideal for students who feel comfortable and confident in their ability to keep themselves safe while practicing and are seeking the chance to dive deeper into their practice.

In a mindfulFlow class, students are invited to enjoy a gentle and intentional flow-style asana practice with the incorporation of mantras, affirmations, and mindfulness practices.

In a Restorative Yoga class, students can expect to practice four to six floor poses held passively for ten minutes or more. Restorative poses are supported with props such as bolsters, blankets, and blocks, allowing the body to surrender into ultimate relaxation. In this effortless state, one can gently shift from doing to being and the mind is invited to find serenity in stillness.

Restorative yoga is intended to invoke “the relaxation response,” which restores balance to the central nervous system.

Vinyasa Flow is a dynamic style of yoga intended to link breath to movement through mindful, flow-like sequences of asanas (poses). While there is no universal format that teachers must follow, the general philosophy of Vinyasa is to progressively open the body with sequences that build upon one another and evolve into deeper expressions as the practice unfolds. A combination of seated, standing and supine poses, resetting “Vinyasas” and Sun Salutations are integrated to lengthen and strengthen the body, improve balance, increase flexibility, enhance range of motion, promote focus, and evoke mental clarity. A Vinyasa Flow class usually closes with a restful Savasana to rejuvenate the body and mind.

Each instructor shares their own perspective of the practice, offering a unique tone, tempo, and theme for their class. Similarly, each individual student may interpret Vinyasa differently. Please remember all offerings are optional and you should cater your practice to what works best for you.

VinYin is a blissful blend of two different disciplines of yoga — vinyasa and yin. Vinyasa is a more dynamic, yang style of yoga that syncs movement with breath and flows through a well-rounded sequence of asanas (poses). Yin yoga is a gentle, cooling practice designed to address the deep connective tissues of the body through long-held passive poses typically done seated or lying down. We will use the yin to cool after the heat and relax into fullness of release with Savanna.

Yin yoga is a gentle practice designed to address the deep connective tissues of the body, especially in and around the joints, through passive poses. Yin yoga poses are performed while seated or lying down and often utilize props such as bolsters, blankets, and straps to set up and support the body. With bodyweight alone, yin yoga allows you to apply light pressure or stress to targeted areas. Safely stimulating stiff connective tissues helps to promote healthy elasticity and enhance the flow of energy throughout the body. No muscular energy or effort is exerted in the poses. Instead, the intention is to ease into each pose so that you can surrender into each shape comfortably for up to five minutes. Yin yoga is a calm, quiet practice that typically begins with meditation and ends in an extended Savasana for ultimate relaxation.

Note: Yin yoga is generally not recommended for those who are already hypermobile naturally or temporarily, as is common during pregnancy. If you fall into either category, please consult with your doctor before practicing Yin yoga and alert the instructor so that he or she can offer a safe practice for you with alternative options if necessary.

This offering is so special it deserves its very own dedicated spotlight. Please visit our Yoga in the Park webpage to learn more.
