Yogalates is sometimes thought of as a fusion practice of “East meets West,” because it merges the ancient Indian practice of yoga with the Western practice of Pilates, which was developed by Joseph Pilates in 1920s Germany. It combines the yogic focus on enhanced mind and body awareness, strength, stamina, flexibility and balance, with Pilates techniques to improve posture and create a strong, stable foundation for movement.As well as the benefits of yoga and Pilates, Yogalates is believed to be particularly effective for improving muscle tone, developing a slimmer, stronger physique and weight loss.

Restorative Yoga If you experience physical, mental or emotional tension or simply want to experience a conscious state of deep rest then Restorative yoga is for you. This quiet yoga practice designed to activate “The Relaxation Response” allows you to let go and surrender entirely in to deep relaxation. You will be guided through 5 to 6 poses that are entirely supported by a variety of props and allow for gentle and passive stretching, opening and releasing. This in turn brings calmness to the mind, relieves muscular tightness, enhances well being, rejuvenates and builds our energy stores.
This class is for those who are seeking a slower paced, gentle practice. Whether you’re living with, or recovering from an injury or would simple like to center and regroup during the week. Breath awareness, yin and restorative postures, along with guided relaxation are combined in each session to help students release tension, enhance range of motion, and improve flexibility. Yoga is not about perfection; it’s about learning patience and self-care. Come share the experience of yoga as a path to natural self-healing and centering.
Breathe and Flow Yoga Classes are open to students of all levels and offer accessible alignment principles and biomechanics from which students can be playful, explore their creative potential, heal and transform. Using alignment cues to safely guide students through different poses, instructed breath work is directed to specific regions, especially the chakras and sushumna, for exploration and expansion.
With a focus on breath and feeling, these classes draw from a range of yoga traditions including Vinyasa, and Hatha. In addition to asana, classes include opportunities for pranayama and meditation.
Yoga is the perfect opportunity to be curious about who you are.
