Class Descriptions:
Vinyasa Flow
Vinyasa translates to
breath-synchronized movement. Vinyasa Flow is an invigorating practice
where you move through poses with your breath as your guide. Linking
the movement from pose to pose with the breath builds internal heat, as
well as develops strength and flexibility. By connecting your mind
and body with the breath, you will begin to connect deeply with the
relationship between the two and the power that each possess.
Combined Levels are
there for those that fall under either of the listed levels (i.e.,
Beginner/Intermediate). These classes are led for both levels with
options to go deeper but opportunities to rest and reserve energy. In
all levels I strive to give you a strong awareness of your body and its
connection to your mind, bringing you the simple and beautiful
benefits of yoga.
The
Beginner Level
is for those with
some yoga experience but new to Vinyasa. By working on the fundamentals
of the poses, you will gain a better understanding of yoga’s
possibilities. Using our bodies and our breath, you will discover the
meaning of Vinyasa – breath synchronized movement. Introducing
pranayama or breath work into the practice, helps unite the body with
the mind. The pace is moderate but you can expect to be challenged. We
will work with both standing and seated poses to leave you feeling
balanced.
The Intermediate
Level is for those
who are ready to take their practice to the next level. We will begin to explore more challenging poses
while
staying in tune with the fundamentals of alignment. We will work
with the more subtle techniques of yoga.
In these classes
you will find smart, unique and creative sequences using standing poses,
arm balancing and inversions as well as counter posing, pranayama
(breath work) and meditation to leave you balanced and rejuvenated.
The
Advanced Level is for those seasoned in yoga. We will work
with deeper types of pranayama and more advanced variations of standing
poses as well as inversions and arm balances. Their will be many
opportunities to "go deeper" but remember to listen to your internal
voice, it is not always best to do it because you can. |
