Vinyasa Yoga



Seasonal Yoga flow or Seasonal Vinyasa Flow is a style of dynamic Yoga practice which is designed to align you with the changing energies of nature and the seasons. A practice that improves physical strength and flexibility and brings balance and harmony to your life. 

Vinyasa classes flow from one pose to the next without stopping to talk about the finer points of each pose. That way, students come away with a good workout as well as a yoga experience. If you're new to yoga, it is a good idea to take a few classes in a slower style of yoga first to get a feel for the poses. 

Yin Yoga

Suitable for almost all levels of students, Yin Yoga is a perfect complement to the dynamic and muscular (yang) styles of yoga that emphasize internal heat, and the lengthening and contracting of our muscles. Yin Yoga generally targets the connective tissues of the hips, pelvis, and lower spine.

While initially this style of yoga can seem quite boring, passive, or soft, yin practice can be quite challenging due to the long duration of the poses. We can remain in the postures anywhere from one to twenty minutes! Yin and yang tissues respond quite differently to being exercised. You need to experience this to really know what Yin Yoga is all about. After you have experienced it, even just once, you will realize that you have been doing only half of the asana practice. 

Yoga for Sleep Recovery

The 5-step Sleep Recovery method is for anyone who wants to sleep better. It brings your body, energy, mind, emotions and your deepest wisdom back into balance repairing your ability to rest deeply. If you’re not sleeping as well as you’d like, answer the wake up call. You’ll find simple, effective practices backed by research and rationale from yoga, neuroscience and psychology offered with warmth and compassion. I will be offering courses soon.

Subtle Yoga

Subtle® Yoga is a broadly applicable, person-centered approach to yoga practice which can be tailored to differing body types/physical abilities and various contexts – from mental illness to public health.

Yoga Nidra

Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep) is a guided meditation and conscious relaxation practice that is intended to induce total physical, mental, and emotional relaxation. I’ve heard that an hour of yoga nidra can be as restorative as four hours of regular sleep! I have recorded a yoga nidra class which can be found on the Classes page of my website :)

Meditation

Meditation is the practice of staying present and mindful for a limited period of time.  It can have numerous benefits for our mental and physical health including reduction of stress and sleeping better..

We experience even greater benefits when we repeat the practice frequently and consistently. Finding some time each day to meditate — even a short daily meditation — is better than no meditation at all.

In my yoga classes we start off the class with a short meditation to try and let go of anything we've done before our yoga class to allow ourselves to become fully immersed in our yoga practice. 

Yoga for Perimenopause, menopause and beyond

Yoga is also a practice that can evolve as you age and move through the cycles of life.  I like to think that yoga helps to future proof our bodies and mind.

Menopause is a major time of transformation physically, mentally, and emotionally. The beauty of practicing yoga is that your practice can benefit and serve you during your transition into, through, and out of menopause.
