Beginning & Continuing Viniyoga

Moderate level yoga asana (postures and movements), with enough variations & modifications that anyone who is mobile enough to get down and up from the floor easily should feel comfortable in this class. You learn to adjust the level of challenge, so you can skillfully meet your own needs. We cover basic postures and alignments, and sometimes we will use a close-up focus on a specific direction of movement or area; or sometimes we will move through a general overall practice. Most days we will take a survey of what each class member needs to pay attention to and use that for some aspect of the practice. This practice includes Pranayama, meditative focus, and relaxation.  Mondays 6:00 p and Tuesdays 4:30 p

Prenatal Yoga 

Where in your busy schedule do you have time to relax, stop the full-speed traffic of your life and focus on YOU? Prenatal yoga.

A fine tuned selection of poses and stretches that takes care of your muscles and joints as your body adjusts to the changes through your pregnancy. A meditative focus on what all these transformations mean in your heart and mind. A unique opportunity to be nurtured and enjoy other women’s company. And maybe just the probability of a comfortable day or good night’s sleep afterward is well worth your time.

Yoga Basics: Foundations First

What are the foundations in the asana (posture) practice? How do you know when you’re
pushing too hard, or not working to your full capacity? Where is that “just right” point and how do you find it? What are the critical alignments for everyone, and what are your unique, personal critical alignments?
*What is the importance of mindfulness or meditation? Are they the same thing?
*Why is breathing so important? I breathe all day every day! What’s the relationship between breathing and yoga?
*What do all these foundation concepts mean in your own body? Where do we start with the meditative perspective? How to connect all the dots?
Here is a beginning level series to build from the ground up, the many elements that work together toward your practice. Level of challenge will be mild to moderate and I always offer modifications for stronger or more relaxed expression of what you need.
Yoga practitioners with experience and understanding of yoga may join and will definitely benefit from the practice. Build your confidence and internal knowledge base for what is right for you.
Saturdays 9:30 – 10:45 a
