Class Descriptions

Emphasizing the  Universal Principles of Alignment, as created by John Friend, all of my classes are considered to be "Anusara-inspired."

Serenity Yoga - this class is designed to release stress and center awareness through gentle postures and relaxation exercises. Some strength building postures will be incorporated. Recommended for those seeking a gentle practice to create balance in the body, mind and spirit.

Vinyasa Flow Yoga - integrates rythmic breathing with conscious movement. This class is designed to increase strength and flexibility and by uniting body and breath, the student will learn to move from moment to moment with absolute awareness. As a meditation through motion, this practice will also strengthen the power of the mind and open the heart.

Restorative Yoga - using props, such as blankets, blocks and bolsters to support the body, this class is designed to bring the student into a deeper sense of relaxation and surrender. The combination of holding the poses for several minutes and breathwork enable the student to rest quietly in the present moment for total rejuvenation. Pranayama and Meditation are also practiced.

Hot Power Yoga - an Intermediate level, 90 minute class, beginning with Ashtanga Stlye Sun Salutations. This class flows at a vigorous pace from one series of poses to another,  linking movement with breath. Recommended for those who seek a challenging physical workout, as a means to release stress and tension, and build confidence and vitality.

Yoga for Kids - The focus in this class is to enjoy yoga through play, in a non-competitive, yet athletic way. Students will practice breathing techniques, poses, games, activities, relaxation, and visualization. Yoga for Kids can instill positive traits such as confidence, compassion, respect, tolerance, patience, and non-violence. It will also develop body awareness, self-control, flexibility, and coordination. Yoga teaches children the meaning of union of mind, body, and spirit.

Meditation Class - This hour long class will include gentle stretches, pranayama (breathing exercises), guided meditation.
Guided meditation is simply the act of being quiet and shutting down your constant monologue that fills the inner space of your being. It is stopping the constant bombardment of thoughts and the seemingly endless chatter filling your inner world. The inner noise is a shield preventing you from knowing your highest self. During guided meditation, the mind is diverted from the scattered thoughts by visualization and sound, helping you feel connected to God, heal situations in your life and achieve peace of mind.

Private Yoga Sessions - available by appointment. Recommended for beginners who seek a detailed introduction to the practice of yoga, students with special needs, and experienced students who seek to refine their practice. Recommended for  athletes who, from muscular imbalance and overuse, have injuries or limitations in the areas of the neck, shoulders, lower back, hips, knees and feet. I also offer private yoga therapy sessions for students suffering from various symptoms of anxiety, depression, chronic Pain, fibromyalgia, addiction or eating disorder recovery.
