This class focuses on breath-guided movement. Mindfully moving the body through shapes (yoga poses) challenges practitioner to remain present through breath cultivating healing mind-body connection. The pace is slow enough to allow full breaths unfold without rush, yet fast enough to challenge even a seasoned practitioner. Such pace enables teachers to offer level-appropriate modifications, thereby enabling any student to dive safely into the depth of their own practice, independently of their experience or fitness level.
The room is heated to 98-100 degrees.

Just like the name suggests, Yin perfectly complements dynamic, strength-building, yang yoga formats. Through long-held floor poses Yin Yoga bypasses powerful musculature to focus on deep connective tissues and fascia. The room is pleasantly warm, and all levels are encouraged.
By increasing circulation around the joints, Yin Yoga improves joint flexibility and longevity, thereby fortifying hips, pelvis, back, neck, and shoulders for years to come. Meditation and breathing exercises are integrated into a Yin class, promoting better relaxation and stress relieve.
