GENERAL MIND/BODY CLASSES


There are many modifications and variations that serve the needs of all experience levels. Get ready to take your yoga practice seriously but yourself lightly as you explore your edge, discover your strength and awaken your potential!

Vinyasa Yoga

A dynamic flowing class taught in the style of Baron Baptiste, a combination of strength, sweat and personal empowerment. The practice is accessible to everybody, yet is also a challenging and flowing form of yoga that will lead you to a state of transformation. Vinyasa Yoga heals as it detoxifies. It will sculpt and tone the muscles of your body and clarify your mind.

Yin Yoga

Most forms of yoga today are dynamic, active practices designed to work the muscular “yang” tissues. Yin yoga is a complimentary discipline to a yang practice, working the deeper “yin” tissues of our ligaments, joints and deep fascial networks and ultimately, increasing our range of motion.

Yoga and Meditation

For the beginner. Learn basic poses, postures, and balances along with proper form and alignment. Class closes with meditation.

(New!) Fire Flow/Yoga Flow/Heated Yoga Flow

This practice is slow and steady, but it can be just as vigorous as Vinyasa.  You’ll move through a sequence of strong postures designed to build heat with core engagement, longer holds, and breathe work.  The slower pace helps to cultivate steadiness of mind, enhanced alignment, and nervous system regulation.  Studio will be moderately heated 80-85 degrees to help with muscular flexibility, sweat and detoxification.

(New!) Yoga Sculpt

A blend of yoga, pilates, strength and balance challenges while increasing your flexibility. This class is designed to meet all fitness levels with a lot of options so you get what you want from this class. It is your mind, your body and your fitness journey.

Barre Bootcamp

Barre Bootcamp will strengthen your arms, sculpt your legs, butt and core, scorch calories, and leave you feeling lean and elongated. You will experience a well-rounded workout that incorporates basic conditioning movements and isometric holds to build strength, as well as small range of motion moves to get deep into your musculature, resulting in a sleek, sculpted look. We use some dynamic, low impact movement to increase your cardio work. You’ll also experience some deep stretching for recovery to keep your body long and lean.

Pilates Barre/Mat Pilates

Barre combines ballet, Pilates and Yoga to give you an amazing 45- minute workout that will sculpt your legs, butt and core, scorch calories, and leave you feeling lean and elongated. You don’t need to be a dancer to participate. We take inspiration from dance and ballet, meshing these with fitness moves gleaned from Pilates as well as the grace and wisdom of Yoga. Mat Pilates does not use a Barre, all on your yoga mat.

Upbeat Barre

Upbeat Barre is muscular-endurance HIIT fusion of cardio, strength, pilates, and yoga. UPB uses popular music to create an accessible, sweaty, and balanced workout with varying levels of intensity.
