Each of our classes blends yoga's physical benefits with its power to awaken compassion. Using special breathing techniques, and yoga postures for toning, strength, and flexibility, students learn to let go of tension from both body and mind. The relaxing experience leaves students feeling calm and rejuvenated, empowered to create a more full and healthy connection to life.
The word "yoga" means union.union of body, mind, and spirit. Much more than simply stretching, yoga can be a path to self-knowledge. By developing awareness of the body and the workings of the mind, we can gradually attain a state of ever-increasing health, well-being, and spiritual harmony. In yoga classes, we often focus on physical postures (along with conscious breathing).

Class Descriptions

The first half (to 2/3) of the class will resemble our other mindful and rejuvenating Kripalu yoga classes. While offering plenty to challenge even the most experienced yogi, the class strongly supports using easier and "friendlier" modifications whenever needed. Everyone is encouraged to go at their own pace.

Please drop us an email with your phone number to pre-register and just in case there is anything that we would like to discuss with you.
Some Practical Tips
Report
About half our students bring mats, and half don't use a mat at all (partly because we have a carpeted floor). This is a personal preference. But if we are in our silent centering meditation in the beginning of class, come in, and sit immediately, and quietly, near the door. Please do any unzipping, jacket removal, etc. outside the room before coming in.
