Flow & Restore

Angela Clark — Fri, 21 Jan 2011 18:40:40 +0000

At the end of a long work day what could be better better than moving the body and then going to sleep. Flow & restore connects you to your breath, allowing you to create a meditation practice through movement, while working out the kinks in the body. Afterwards you can settle into a serene place through postures designed to restore your nervous system.

Baby & Me

Baby & me classes allow new parents to step into a community of supportive practice during one of life’s greatest transitions. Come stretch, strengthen and learn to realign your body while practicing with your baby.

We ask that you wear your baby to class. If you bring a stroller, it must be broken down, taken upstairs and placed in the hallway bathroom.

All Levels classes link poses with breath and provide students with options to challenge and surrender their practice. The morning All Levels classes are geared towards energizing the body and clearing the mind. The evening All Levels class balances a strong practice with more chill sequences to unwind from your day.

Basics

sbruner — Tue, 30 Sep 2008 03:19:54 +0000

We guide students into their bodies through this ancient practice in a decidedly modern context. We make classes fun, non-intimidating, and demystify the yoga postures with precise instruction. As your “on the mat” confidence grows, don’t be surprised if the confidence shows up “off the mat” as well.

This hour-long basics class is an opportunity to engage in a focused and targeted practice on days when time is more limited. The class is appropriate for brand new beginners as well as more seasoned practitioners.
