Tues 29th
- 7:30AM = Hatha *community*
A long standing system which includes the practice of asanas (yoga postures) and pranayama (breathing exercises) in order to bring calm to the body and mind and has been used as a way to prepare the body for meditation and other deeper spiritual practices. These sessions are slower in pace with the poses held for a number of breath. Focus is on proper alignment, core strength, flexibility, balance, concentration and breath control. Modifications and the use of props are included to aid students with proper alignment. *Community Classes are offered once weekly at a discounted rate of $15.
- 9:00AM = Vinyasa
Movement on the breath in a continuous flow with its core objective being flexibility, in these sessions the focus is on the flow between movements. Ujjayi breathing is the technique used for breath control and poses include standing poses, back-bends, forward bends and arm balances. Our sessions are moderately paced and no two classes are the same. Modifications and the use of props may be included to aid with proper alignment where necessary.
- 12:30PM = Yin
With our attention directed to the lower spine, hips, inner thighs & pelvis - these deeply restful, floor based poses are held for 3 to 6 mins - regulating the body’s flow of energy and targeting the connective tissues. Stretching the fascia and the deep connective tissues between muscles, students enjoy the benefits of improved flexibility and increased circulation in the joints.
- 2:00PM = Restorative
Ultra therapeutic sessions, several yoga props are incorporated with an emphasis on muscular relaxation and comfort to help students achieve a quiet state of body and mind. With the conditions set in our restorative classes immediate effects on heart rate, blood pressure and brain activity are possible. Students learn how to cultivate the practice of letting go and develop useful techniques for deep breathing and relaxing.
- 4:00PM = Yoga + Dance Jazz
Our Yoga + Dance Reggae's other half - this Yoga + Dance Jazz class, also created and developed by our founder, is packed with a lovely balance of active rhythmic dance moves inserted within a series of specific yoga poses with compatible lines.
A fun yet mentally relaxing way to direct energy in an active way - this class is so fun & engaging, that other than the healthy sweating, you will completely forget you're getting in a great workout... Letting go will become natural and you will leave this session in an upbeat and optimistic vibe. All levels welcomed -'Tis Wonderful!
