All classes include a breathing practice, warm-ups and an active sequence of poses to strengthen our core muscles and improve our flexibility and agility. The hatha and flow classes also feature standing and balancing poses and all classes close with relaxation poses and a meditation.
We spend significant time in each class doing warm-ups to get the fluid moving and our muscles working. We begin with eye and face yoga and then move to our joints including our neck, shoulders, feet & toes, ankles, knees and our spine.
As we get older it is vitally important to ensure we are adequately warmed up before we move into the more challenging poses.

The hatha yoga classes begin with 30-40 minutes of warm-up poses and features both dynamic poses (eg. sun salutations) and static poses (holding for up to 30 seconds) that build muscle, improve balance and flexibility, and increase bone mass

This class includes 30-40 minutes of warm-up poses similar to the hatha yoga classes. We then move into strength building and stretching poses to build muscle and improve our flexibility, all while sitting on a chair. We conclude our class laying on a mat or bed or couch for a final stretch and savasana and meditation. This is an excellent class for anyone seeking a gentler yoga and/or those who may have mobility or balance issues.
Flow Yoga starts with a 10 minute warm-up and 10 minutes of active dynamic poses moving from one pose to another increasing our strength and improving our balance and flexibility. The class will close with 10 minute cool-down poses and a short meditation. This is a class for anyone who wants an energetic, fast moving class to start your weekend.
Anyone who signs up for the flow yoga class will automatically receive an invitation for the floor stretching class and recordings for both classes.

The Saturday floor stretching class also include 30-40 minutes of warm-ups and we then move into floor stretching and some core building poses to increase our strength and improve our flexibility. This is an excellent complement to our flow class, moving from an energetic class to a slower moving stretch class.
Yin poses are integrated into the Saturday floor stretching class by holding some of the poses for 2-3 minutes to reach deep into the connective tissue and improve our flexibility. If you register for this class you will also receive an invitation for the earlier flow class and also receive a recording for both.
The Wednesday floor stretching class is only 45 minutes and a great mid-week class. We do all the same elements of the Saturday class but move through the poses a little more quickly.
