This class is designed for those with some experience with Ashtanga yoga, but all levels are welcome. Our expert teachers will guide you through the sequence, providing modifications and adjustments to ensure a safe and rewarding practice.
Ashtanga Basics or Fundamentals
Our Ashtanga Basics class is an excellent introduction to the Ashtanga Yoga sequence. This class is designed for beginners, as well as those who want to deepen their understanding of the method. You'll learn the elements of the practice, including breath, asana, and drishti, and develop a stronger connection to your body and yoga practice.
Yin Yoga
Our Yin Yoga classes are a therapeutic and relaxing practice that targets the fascia, releasing tension and creating space in the body. This practice is perfect for those looking for a slower-paced, more relaxing form of yoga that can complement their Ashtanga practice.
