Level I		This class is great for either newbies or continuing students who are looking for a moderately paced, beginning-level class with methodical instruction. We explore basic postures (asanas) with an emphasis on correct alignment supported as needed by the use of props. We also introduce the fundamental tools of vinyasa yoga—or posture flow coordinated with breath—including ujjayi breath, and gaze (drishti). No previous yoga experience required.
Level 1-2		This class works well for intermediate students or athletic beginners. Building on the foundation of proper alignment, asanas are linked together with ujjayi breath to create a moderate to challenging, always creative posture flow. Classes have a flow and rhythm to encourage the cultivation of one's practice as moving meditation. More advanced poses (like inversions and backbends) are introduced, while modifications are offered for newer students.
Level 2		A challenging, uplifting and invigorating vinyasa class for intermediate to advanced students that incorporates more arm balances, inversions, and backbending postures with variations, within a creative flow practice. Recommended for students who are comfortable with headstands, arm balancing and backbending.
Noon Yoga		Our noon classes are vigorous flow classes, the pace brisk and fun. When advanced postures are taught, we offer modifications. It is sixty minutes of moving, sweaty meditation that will leave you feeling grounded and lighter through the rest of your day.
Yoga/Pilates Fusion		This energetic class combines flexibility and core strength training. The one-hour class will start out with mat-based Pilates moves and then move to the traditional Sun Salutations and some standing poses of yoga. Feel strengthened, toned, and lengthened from the inside out! This is class is currently on hold while the instructor is out on maternity.
Gentle Yoga		Gentle Yoga classes are a great way to restore and rejuvenate. The class is taught in a supportive atmosphere and open to all levels, for anyone looking for a quiet practice. We explore mostly seated and restorative postures, with some standing postures, and props are used liberally to support the body. Please note that this class is not designed for acute states of illness, nor is it specifically therapeutic.
Prenatal Yoga		Gentle strengthening, stretching and relaxation for the growing mom and baby. Beneficial for all three trimesters. No previous yoga experience necessary.
Yin Yoga		An all-levels class that incorporates longer-held seated postures, preceded by a brief active sequence for warming up. Yin Yoga is based on the Chinese meridian system (acupuncture-like benefits, no needles!). Yin Yoga is generally offered one Friday evening per month. No need to register; show up for any or all of the classes--drop in or use your card.
