Tones the body and tunes the mind. Learn to be calm, focus your energies and regain inner peace while improving physical strength. Emphasize awareness and relaxation through supported positions.

Yoga with Kay

Kay's yoga classes are both fun and challenging. She uses an expressive, nurturing approach that meets us where most of us are, which is far from perfect. There is no severity, only encouragement to reach our highest potential. There is a cleanness and simplicity to Kay's playful, offbeat style. We get in there, we take on challenges-but we laugh, we groan, we let our body and mind release on their own terms. The goal is not to achieve a perfect form, but to find the perfect expression of one's own body.

Intermediate Hatha Yoga with MaryScott
Kick start your morning with a yoga workout that will leave you feeling stronger, more flexible and completely relaxed.

Good music and good humor ensure that we don't take ourselves too seriously. Join us!

Nia Yoga Flow with MaryScott

The yoga section of YoNia will always include upper body and abdominal work along with balance practice and some long holds of classic poses. Come discover how Nia and Yoga can flow together to create a stronger and more centered you.

Vinyasa Yoga with Claudia
Vinyasa is a term that covers a broad range of yoga classes. The word Vinyasa means “breath-synchronized movement.” In other words, the teacher will instruct you to move from one pose to the next on an inhale or an exhale. This technique is sometimes also called Vinyasa Flow, or just Flow because of the smooth way that the poses run together and become like a dance. All Levels - This is a mixed class designed to honor the needs of a wider spectrum of students. An excellent choice for continuing practitioners who want to deepen their practice beyond the introductory stage. Inversions will be explored when suitable for each student.

Hatha Yoga with Melanie

Hatha yoga is an umbrella of many types of yoga. This class focuses in the branch called Sivananda yoga. Sivanananda yoga includes postures where the body is only taken as far as the body can go on any particular day and is not forced past its limits, together with breath control, which quiets the mind and assists the body to relax into yoga postures. This class is suited for all levels.

Yoga Inspired Stretch and Strengthen with Karen

This class is an internal experience. Breath combined with movement heats the body up from the inside out. The internal heat allows the body to stretch and strengthen. This is a workout from head to toe. As a massage soothes our skin, breath and movement soothes our internal self, our cells. In addition to cleansing the body from the inside, you will strengthen and shape your body. All levels are welcome to this special experience with Karen.
