Hot Yoga is one of the most popular styles of yoga today. The studio is heated, warming you inside-out. The heat encourages flexibility and the safe stretching of muscles. Feel energetic, vibrant and strong as toxins are released from the body through sweat. After limbering up the body, you transition into a series of standing and floor postures and exercises that target the abdominals, back and pelvis to create a toned, balanced and strong body. You focus on learning and exploring precise alignment in each posture while maximizing stamina, strength, body awareness and mental focus.

Ashtanga Yoga connects various physical poses, called "asanas," into energizing sequences. The well-know "sun salutation" sequence is the basis of all ashtanga yoga. Students learn to safely move in and out of postures, and are introduced to the elements of the ashtanga practice, including correct breathing and gazing points. Synchronizing your breath with the postures produces an internal heat and a purifying sweat detoxifies muscles and organs. Improve circulation and create a light, strong body and a calm mind.

Hatha Yoga is a quieter style of yoga. Focus is on alignment and breath, and go deeper into each individual posture, while encouraging lengthening and stretching of the muscles. Restore balance and expand awareness of the body, breath and mind, in this challenging and detailed-oriented physical practice.

Vinyasa Power Power Flow (Power Yoga) classes are lively, energetic, flowing classes synchronizing breath with movement. Through practice, students are able to build strength, flexibility, and concentration. Cleanse the body and calm the mind. You can expect a great cardiovascular and strength building workout combined with breath work (pranayama).

The term "vinyasa" is a word used to define the mindful flow in the sun salutation series of: chaturanga, up dog, down dog, all linked by ujayyi pranayama breathing. This sequence builds upper body strength and heat in the body, while stretching the legs and relaxing the spine.

Most Vinyasa Power Flow classes are modeled on the Ashtanga style of yoga. The term Vinyasa Power Flow (Power Yoga) was created by teachers looking to make Ashtanga yoga more accessible. These classes are appropriate for beginners through to advanced students. Modified versions of more challenging postures will always be given. Students are always supported to work at their own pace. Balance postures, standing and seated postures will be included to help build strength, endurance, and increase flexibility, relieve tension and lift your spirits.

Gentle Yoga uses supports called "props" instead of muscular tension to maintain poses. Gentle yoga is perfect for those who would like to work at a slower, gentler pace. This class emphasizes moving with ease and comfort, with breath awareness to increase strength, flexibility and endurance. Slower exploration of postures allows for deep relaxation and quiet meditation.

Yoga for Runners Yoga and running have a lot in common. They require regular practice, strength, flexibility, mental focus and a structured breathing method. Running is high impact and repetitive; without proper care, running can cause long term damage to the joints. Maintaining a well balanced body is crucial to avoid injuries. Yoga is a perfect cross training tool for runners. Yoga builds strength, stamina, and increases flexibility. One of the most important elements of yoga is learning how to breathe. This is critical for runners because you need to pump large amounts of oxygen into your lungs and muscles.
