Happy Hips and Hamstrings
By Courtney Harms on Apr 19, 2019
Go deep into your hips and hamstrings to create space in the body and mind. We hold a lot of our "stuff" in these spots. Through conscious breath and movement we can choose to let a lot of it go!

Ground to Lift Up and Fly

A well-rounded class with heart opening, hip opening and a focus on core strength and breath connection. We will play with forearm stand starting from dolphin pose setting up the building blocks to Pincha Mayurasana. Challenge your limits a bit if you can but most importantly breathe and stay present so you can enjoy the benefits of the mind body connection we work on together.

Feel a bit tight, sore or sluggish in your pregnant body? This class is perfect to help you feel strong, grounded and open again! Modifications are given so you can adjust this flow to your second or third trimester. We move through sun salutations and hold standing poses to cultivate strength.

Morning Cup of Joe-ga
By Ally Hamilton on Aug 13, 2018
Let's have a morning cup of joe-ga together! Sun salutes heat us up, a standing sequence opens all the major muscle groups, backbends open the heart and the shoulders, hip and hamstring-opening sets us up to enter the day feeling relaxed and ready, core strengthening starts a fire in the belly, and all along the way gentle reminders to work on an inner voice that roots you on while you gain tools to tell a loud inner critic to hit the road! Ready? Grab your cup. I mean your mat!

KISS in your Chair
By Leslie Kazadi on Jul 30, 2018
KISS - Keep It Simple, Silly - in your chair when you don't know where to begin a yoga practice. Simply feeling your feet, your breath and your movement will guide you into what is possible in this moment. Let yourself be surprised by how much you can move in a chair and how much strength and confidence you can build. Pay attention to the rhythm of your breath and the river of sensation that is ever present. These simple things can soothe your mind, improve your balance and sense of control over your body as you move through life.
