Practice basic Ashtanga postures in a flowing sequence of movement and experience new potentials of strength and flexibility. There will be no music. The breath will be our music. This is a led class. We are traveling together. Please stay with the count of the teacher and move in and out of postures with the class.

Build a relationship with your teacher and partake in the ancient tradition of Ashtanga Yoga as it has been taught in India for centuries and is still taught today. Mysore self-practice is the traditional way of practicing Ashtanga Yoga and offers a highly personalized approach. The teacher will know your practice inside and out, and this "class" is quiet – there's very little talking and no music. The breath will be our music. You will lead yourself through the practice with hands-on adjustments and guidance from your teacher. If at any time you wish to not receive adjustments, please let us know. We at all times honor and respect your space. Please do not add postures and please do not skip vinyasas. No water bottles please.
Drop-ins are welcome, but out of fairness to the teacher-student relationship, continuous practice is beneficial to progress and to a fully understanding the Ashtanga method. No practice on full moon or new moon days. Instead please rest. If you're completely new to Ashtanga please contact us before coming to this class.
Come and enjoy the delicious synthesis of movement, breath, and energy. When the breath and movement are connected in a rythmic fashion the body becomes light and fluid while the mind quiets down and the practitioner finds a sense of calm and presence that is the goal of yoga. This class is active and warm for the first half hour. Once the body has created enough internal heat we move into hip openers, heart openers and deep stretching. For many people, the Slow Flow classes are the perfect mix of challenge and ease, providing a space to get all the mental, emotional and physical benefits of yoga. This class is designed for all levels with modifications provided. New students are always welcome!

Soothing music and soft lighting set the tone for this gentle, meditative class. Unwind as you move mindfully and release tension through longer held Yin and Restorative poses. The candles will be lit and a deeper internal focus will be encouraged. Perfect for beginners or those just in need of a deep healing—emotionally and physically. This class is a donation class. Pay what you would like. (Suggested donation $0 - $10)
IRest is a guided meditation practice that helps us to welcome all of our experiences - both pleasant and unpleasant - and to remain present to them in an attitude of equable awareness. IRest is based on ancient Yogic philosophy, but has been demonstrated in modern clinical settings to reduce stress, anxiety and symptoms of PTSD. Allow the teacher to guide you into the most relaxed state of awareness that one can achieve while you rest in savasana. Led by Matt Ismail. 6 classes $35 or drop in $10/$5 College, Highschool age.
