Yoga Classes
“Anybody can breathe. Therefore anyone can practice yoga.”
… and anybody can find the right class: from vinyasa flow to cardio lovers, from seasoned yogis to beginners, families and even babies!
-
Vinyasa Flow
to smoothly transition from one pose to another, synchronizing each movement with the breath. In a heated vinyasa flow class the room temperature ranges from 90 to 100 degrees F with a humidity level set in between 35-50%. In unheated classes, the room is at a temperature of 75 degrees
Classes are 60, 75 or 90 minutes long.
-
Yoga Sculpt
an energizing class that incorporates signature yoga postures with hand weights and cardio bursts. First you flow, then you go. Sculpt is the perfect blend of mind and body, providing a calorie and fat-burning workout and the many mental benefits of yoga.
Classes are 60 minutes long.
-
Yoga for Beginners
a journey that introduces everyone to the transformative world of yoga. The classes are carefully crafted for those taking their first steps into yoga, offering a welcoming and accessible approach to enhance their overall well-being. Learn the fundamental principles that form the basis of a strong and sustainable yoga practice.
-
Stretch & Restore
a chance to slow down and give your body what it really needs! This class has a slow flow that provides the opportunity to move mindfully and ends in long and restful poses that leave you feeling refreshed, focused and ready for productivity. The body can do all sorts of amazing things if we just allow it to truly relax and recover.
Classes are 60 minutes long.
-
Yin Yoga
a wonderful complementary practice to the vinyasa classes. Yin offers an opportunity to slow down with long(er) held postures that help improve flexibility of the body and the mind, by gently and consistently stimulating the connective tissue, and drawing the mind inward.
-
Prenatal Yoga
an opportunity for the expecting woman to keep (or start) practicing yoga in a safe environment. A more relaxing yoga practice that helps flexibility, strength, and alleviate common pains related to pregnancy. Classes are guided by teachers specifically trained, and are not heated.
-
Postnatal Yoga

To me, yoga is more than just a sequence of poses. It is a way of life. I initially started practicing because I heard it was a great way to build strength and become more flexible. I found those things and much more. What I gained was greater peace of mind, a tool to manage anxiety, a sense of well being, a supportive community, increased self confidence, connection with others, joy in vulnerability, and a profound spiritual practice. Yoga unites and connects. It meets us in our struggles and amplifies what is going right in our lives while giving us strength to handle what isn’t. It is a source of calm in a chaotic world. My goal is for my classes to challenge you and lift you up. I will ask you to look within yourself for truth and to your neighbor for support. I will lead you through breath, strong poses, and graceful movements, so you can then sit and hear the quiet wisdom of your own mind.
I completed my 200 hour training with Rolf Gates in 2014 and my 300 hour training with Jacqui Bonwell in 2018. I am certified to teach Vinyasa Yoga, Yin Yoga, and Meditation. I also have some additional certifications - Balanced Athlete Level 1 and am a Reiki Master and am currently studying to become a Certified Personal Trainer - which further inform my yoga instruction.
