Vinyasa: A creative and vigorous sequence of postures, mixed in with sun salutations that flow with concentration on the breath. Develop grace, self-expression, strength, balance, and flexibility. Experience and knowledge of basic poses required. Kate's vinyasa is inspired by Byron Baptiste's "Journey into Power" and Alan's classes have been known to play upbeat Rock & Roll from the '80's & '90's. Either way, plan to move and sweat.
Yin Yoga: A slow, meditative practice of floor-based postures held for 1–5 minutes, with unhurried transitions between shapes. This class emphasizes a gentle, sustained opening in the body, inviting release through the connective tissues, rather than force or intensity.With the support of props, you’ll be guided toward a sense of ease and permission to soften. Breath awareness helps to down-regulate the nervous system and create space for both physical and mental unwinding.
Open to all levels, including beginners.
YOGA FLOW: A dynamic practice combining breath-work, energizing movement, balance, and strength. Class begins with a gentle warm-up for the hips, shoulders and spine, gradually transitioning into a flow of poses that concludes with deeper stretching and rest. 
Yoga Nidra: A form of guided meditation that allows you to scan the body and tap into a state of relaxed consciousness as the mind settles in a place between wakefulness and sleep. The only thing you have to do is get comfortable and follow the sound of the instructor’s voice. No physical postures are taught in this portion of the class.
