yin yoga is a slow-paced style of yoga incorporating principles of traditional Chinese medicine with poses that are held for longer periods of time (3-5 min.).

vinyasa flow yoga emphasizes the sequential movement between physical poses guided by intentional breath. Vinyasa is a quicker paced class that incorporates cardio, strength, and stretch.

In this workshop, we will explore creative outlets to aid in our Meditation practice. Students will have the opportunity to create a mala bracelet and will receive coloring sheets and a handout to continue these practices at home.

MALA – Mala beads are a type of prayer and meditation bead. Hinduism, Sikhism, Buddhism, and Catholicism all have a variation of prayer beads (‘worry beads’ or rosary). In today’s practice, most are used as a form of meditation without religious affiliation.
MANDALA – in Hindu and Buddhist faiths, mandalas are a symbolic diagram used in the performance of sacred rites and as an instrument of meditation.
COLORING – Coloring has been proven to calm the brain and help your body relax. Sitting down for a coloring session can be compared to a physical yoga practice (asana) as the same mind-body connection.

All supplies will be provided.

hatha yoga classes will involve physical poses and breathing techniques (pranayama). These poses are typically practiced more slowly and with static posture holds for 3-5 breaths.

restorative yoga is a gentle, slow, still style of yoga that involves long, passive holds in a series of 4-6 restful poses.
