Yoga Styles

​Hatha Yoga 

Ha' means sun, and 'tha' means moon.​ Hatha yoga promotes balance of the whole body, using gravity and body weight as resistance. The sequences consist of long-holding postures, which help you focus on your breath and pay attention to the body alignment. During the session, it gives you time to stretch out, release muscle tension and reduce stiffness. This strives to balance opposing parts of the physical body, the front and back, the left and right and the top and bottom. Yoga movement is a psychological process. Inner strength and clarity of mind come along the way.

Yin yoga

Yin yoga is a quiet contemplative practice. Yin yoga works deeply into our body with passive, longer-held poses. It targets the deepest tissues of the body, our connective tissues – ligaments, joints, bones, the deep fascia networks of the body and the meridians. Energetically, Yin yoga improves the energy flow, enhancing the flow of chi in the organs. To be healthy, we need healthy organs as well as healthy muscles. Yin yoga also offers wonderful emotional and mental health benefits.

Vinyasa yoga

Designed to progressively open the body, each sequence in a Vinyasa yoga class builds upon the previous, evolving into deeper, more advanced postures as the practice unfolds. Resetting “vinyasas,” are a standard series of poses that transition the yogi back to their home base pose: Downward Facing Dog. The entire practice culminates with a deep sense of mindfulness, self-connection and ease. 

Slow flow

Slow flow yoga is a type of yoga that is light and creative, but slower in pace and gentler than Vinyasa yoga. Postures are generally held for longer periods of time, and the transitions between poses are a little slower. The more gentle nature of this class targets beginners to intermediate students.
