Full Body-Core Flow
An overall strengthening and challenging practice with a heavy emphasis on core.

Music is pumping, often some throwback tunes to give you motivation and bring some fun into class.

Full Body-Barre
Barre is a toning class that works to improve balance, flexibility, posture and core strength. Using small movements targets those tiny, hard to reach muscles in your glutes and core that you don't normally think about. Adding in some Pilates based core work on your mat, and some arm toning exercises with light weights, this class provides a full body, low impact workout that will amp up your workout routine and your Yoga practice.
Warm and Relaxing
Reiki Infused Slow Flow
Reiki is a form of energy healing that helps to reduce stress and promotes relaxation. Moving through a gentle, meditative yoga flow while tapping into this life force energy helps to find a balance in both your body and your mind. The room is slightly heated to a warm and comfortable temperature, so you can really dive deep into your relaxation, letting go of whatever you may need to.
Restorative Infused Slow Flow
This class is a blend between Viniyoga and Restorative Yoga. You will warm-up with a gentle Viniyoga flow, holding each posture for up to 8-10 breaths. The second half of the class is a Restorative practice, where each posture is fully prop-supported and held for 5-10 minutes. The focus of this practice is not the quantity of poses, but rather the quality of poses. This class allows your body to slip into the Parasympathetic nervous system, which simulates rest. In turn, you’ll experience a decrease in cortisol levels, improvement of sleep quality, release of tension, and you will create a balance within the nervous system. Expect calming music, low lighting, soothing lavender towels, and a gently heated room.
Mid-Day Flow
Take a break from your busy day with this lighthearted community class. A 45 minute flow that will leave you rejuvenated , relaxed and ready to immerse yourself back in your day. This class is unheated so that you can return to your daily routine looking presentable and feeling amazing!
One Love: Reggae Flow
This energizing rhythmic flow offers the best of both worlds. We will offer heart-opening meditations, and find ourselves moving through flows while also carving out time to hold our postures for multiple rounds of breath to cultivate heat and strength in our bodies. All set to the mid-tempo, bass-heavy, heartbeat rhythms found in reggae music. Leave with feelings of love, energy, positivity, and light.
Align + Flow
Align + Flow is a comprehensive yet gentle alignment based slow flow and strength movement experience. We honor that every human body is unique and has its own level of flexibility and limitations. The slower pace will build strength and endurance with control of breath, so it’s gentle, but with a deep approach to reveal body awareness, inner strength, and create a safe space for the mind to re-align with the body. The spine, joints, and muscles are attended to, while mind-calming breath work is interwoven with posture flows. Some postures may be offered on an intermediate level, but layers are always given so that anyone can accommodate their own personal needs.
Yin & Yang Flow
Yin and yang will give both fast and slow movement with a strong focus on the breath. The first half of class we will be flowing through vinyasas focusing on warming up the body (yang energy) and the second half of class will focus on holding poses to stretch and nourish the body (yin energy) This class is accessible for all levels!
Hatha Vinyasa
In this class we will take a slower approach to our vinyasa flow, holding postures for longer and deeply connecting to our breath. Focusing on our alignment and connecting each breath to movement, this class will help us drop into our bodies and out of our minds.
