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.
As
you start connecting you mind and body with your breath you can expect
to become more deeply connected with the relationship between the two
and the power that each posess.
Combined Levels are
there for those that fall under either of the listed levels (ie,
Beginner/Intermediate). These classes are lead 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 to
the simple and beautiful benefits of yoga.
The
Beginner Level is for those new to Vinyasa
but with some yoga experience who
wish to develop the fundamentals of the poses and a better understanding
of yoga's possibilities. We will discover the meaning "vinyasa"
(breath synchronized movement) using our bodies and breath.
Introducing pranayama (breath work) will help to connect you to the yoga
(uniting 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. |
