Vinyasa Yoga is a flowing series of asanas linked with rhythmic breathing and ending with deep relaxation. It is a gentle, yet challenging practice of standing, seated, prone and balancing poses to increase strength, endurance, flexibility and balance.

Integrated Yoga blends the mindful slower movements of a gentle class with more challenging postures.  Drawing from various yoga styles including Kripalu, Vinyasa and Kundalini allows for a varied practice geared toward self-discovery.

Kripalu Yoga consists of three stages - willful practice, focusing on alignment, breath and presence; willful surrender, conscious holding of postures deepening concentration and inward focus; and meditation in motion, complete release of internal tensions and complete trust in the body's wisdom.

BolliYoga is a joyful blend of belly dancing, stability ball and yoga. Each week we practice some basic belly dance moves then put them all together in a short routine, followed by strengthening and toning with large stability balls that add resistance and improve core function and balance (building muscle helps keep the metabolism revved up - it takes more core energy to maintain muscle weight than fat), and yoga to lengthening the muscles, sculpt the body, release tension, and let go of worries. With a quiet mind, we can begin to look more deeply and uncover or rediscover our best, healthiest self.  Suggestions for home practice that may include physical exercises, journaling, and affirmations to work with on your own are posted here.

Pilates consists of a set of principles and a system of controlled exercises offering a total body workout that enhances quality of life by improving strength, flexibility, control, coordination, body awareness and stamina.  Pilates works several muscle groups simultaneously through smooth continuous motion, with a particular concentration on strengthening and stabilizing the core (the abdomen, back and pelvic girdle region - sometimes referred to as the "powerhouse").  Pilates helps to create a stronger, more flexible spine, restores postural alignment, increases joint range of motion, improves circulation, offers relief from back pain and joint stress, and helps to make the body less prone to injury. Pilates improves the way your body looks and feels - at any age!
