Balancing Body, Balancing Energy

Yoga views the human being as being multi-dimensional, and when we practice, we not only tend to the physical body, but our internal life force and or minds so we can reconnect with our true nature. This is a moderate class designed to strengthen the physical areas that will help to "balance" many bodies, along with a harmonizing practice for the pranic (energetic) body.

Attention and Intention at the Heart

A moderate to challenging practice that invites the mind to focus on the sacred mantra OM and the visualization of "implanting" it into the heart. Placing a mantra into our practices is intended to help us embody the meanings of sacred mantras. "OM" helps us connect to the expansive part of us that is connected to everything.

Soaking Up Simple Sweetness

A moderate to challenging hatha practice that invites you to infuse gratitude into your practice. 75 minutes of hip and chest opening and arm strengthening to practice the art of enhancing and focusing on the beauty in our lives, ourselves and our yoga.

Open Heart, Strong Back (boundaries)

A moderate hatha practice that encourages expansion across the physical chest and an intention to cultivate a receptive open heart through movement and a specific breath technique. We can create space at the front line of the body by strengthening the muscles of the back body which invites you to consider nourishing your strong back (or strong, healthy boundaries)

Cultivating Compassion Without a Reason

One of the underpinnings of yoga is the potential to cultivate a sense of fulfillment and wellbeing in the present moment. This kind of contentment is the practice of wanting of what we already have. Explore this concept while moving through a slow, balancing flow focused on strengthening areas of our physical bodies that can tend to be weak and stretching areas that can be habitually tight.
