ASHTANGA

Considered as a “Dedicated Practice” Ashtanga is a set series of postures performed in sequence, with specific transitions and breath work to memorize. For the most part, Ashtanga is a ‘home’ practice, one that is deeply personal in which the yogi strives to complete each series, six (6) in all, which can take a lifetime to master.

Beginners are quite welcome for there are modifications you may take in the postures as you progress into the poses. Start with the introductory class of 30 or 45min short form, moving into the 90min Short form when you have developed a familiarity with the sequence and breath.

Though not necessary, we recommend a core understanding of Yoga postures before embarking in this class to prevent possible injury.

 Ashtanga practice is very physically demanding because of the constant movement from one pose to the next; It is also the inspiration for what is often called Power Yoga. When you see this class listed, sometimes in a heated room, it will be based on the flowing style of Ashtanga, yet the series of postures are taken out of sequence, some even being eliminated for that particular session. The goal for this is to create a “stepping stone” for the student who wishes to study Ashtanga, but may not be quite ready to take on the rigors of a full practice.

VINYASA FLOW All Levels

Upward Facing Dog

Good for any level student, great place to start as a beginner, basic knowledge of poses helps. The purpose of this style of yoga is to create heat within the body which then leads to sweating and ultimately purification of the body.

Vinyasa is a term that is used to describe many different types of  Yoga classes. Vinyasa, which means breath-synchronized movement; a vigorous style based on the performance of a series of poses called Sun Salutations, or Surya namaskara in which movement is matched to the breath resulting in raised heart rates. A Vinyasa class will typically start with a number of Sun Salutations to warm up the body; often leading you into poses designed to target specific areas of the body, such as hip opening or shoulder strength, for that day. Your instructor will help you achieve alignment with proper breath and engagement of the pose, offering variations for you to explore either in class or on your own.

Moksha® Inspired Yoga

An intense physical flow of postures that is done in a heated room, usually between 95 and 100° + humidity. The heat provides several benefits including tissue release through stretching and detoxification as the body sweats.

Kundalini

The Kundalini is energy (prana) at the base of the spine that can be drawn up through the body, awakening each of the seven chakras. Full enlightenment occurs when this energy reaches the crown chakra at the top of the head. Kundalini energy is often represented as a snake coiled at the bottom of the spine.

Kundalini sequences (called kriyas) may consist of rapid, repetitive movements done with in conjunction with a designated breathing method or holding a pose. A Kundalini class begins with a short chant followed by a warm-up to stretch the spine, and usually non-challenging asanas. The class ends with a meditation, which may be accompanied by closing song, chimes, or playing of a singing bowl. Essential oils and incense may be used, so please be aware of allergies you may have to these substances.
