Class Descriptions:

CONTINUING

This 90 minute class is for the beginning and/or intermediate student.  Students are given instructions for alignment or adpations to meet individual strength or flexibility needs.  The teacher gives adjustments as needed to help students refine alignments or receive even more release.

PRE-NATAL
This special, nurturing hour class is for women in their 2nd or 3rd trimester to help prepare for childbirth and establish a connection with their baby. This class is also suitable for women who want to become pregnant. Husbands and birthing partners welcome. Beginners welcome!

GENTLE YOGA
This 75 minute class is great for students who want to increase flexibility, suffer from chronic pain or are recovering from surgery or long-term illness. For beginners and those who would like a better understanding of the Foundational poses of Svaroopa Yoga. The only pre-requesite is that students must be able to get up and down to the floor.

DEEPER
We hold the poses longer and do deeper variations of familiar poses which facilitates greater spinal releases and can give profound changes in both the body and the mind. 

This hour and 45 minute class is for the intermediate to advanced student who has been taking Continuing level classes for a minimum of 6 months, developed a daily yoga practice and has the teacher's permission.
