Class Descriptions

Rocket (Vinyasa)

This mixed-levels vinyasa class is a dialed-down version the Ashtanga-based practice taught at AstaYoga, our host studio.  Connecting breath with movement, we start with sun-salutations, followed by standing postures, balancing postures, seated postures, backbends, and inversions.  Beginners will find it thrilling to learn that they can actually do it.  Seasoned practitioners will find the practice consistent, rigorous and fulfilling. (But with fewer jump-throughs! Whew!)

Mala

This unique offering will cover you with the warmth of a gentle vinyasa flow, support you in partnering skills, pranayama (breath work), and restore your vitality through somatic exercises. The naked aspect of this practice reveals a deep sensuality that directly influences our approach to movement. Our focus will be on finding and cultivating both ease and pleasure as we move through the asanas and somatic pathways. It’s an invitation to listen without judgement and follow what feels good for you in our kinesthetic exploration. Acceptance, compassion, and ahimsa (non-violence) will also be our guiding tenets.

Slow Flow

It’s just what it sounds like.  We start with a gentle warmup, then move together through a series of postures at a slow and relaxed pace.  The sequence will vary depending on the needs of the class and the whims of the instructor. 

Yin Yoga

Have a conversation with gravity. After a gentle warmup, you’ll be guided into restorative postures that you will hold for a longer time. Blocks and bolsters will prop you up. Still your mind. Leave feeling restored.

Partner Yoga

We offer occasional partner yoga workshops with guided massage. And optional partner yoga postures are sometimes offered during our weekly classes.
