CLASS DESCRIPTIONS
*Classes with an asterisk are beginner-friendly!*
*Yoga for Back Care
This class focuses on postures and techniques designed to prevent and manage back pain and enhance the health of your back and spine. You will learn to relieve tension in the back body, from the neck to the sacrum, while strengthening your core to support proper alignment. This class is designed to be therapeutic in nature, and is appropriate for all levels.
*Yin
Yin yoga is a quiet, meditative practice with long, deep holding of passive poses. Using mindful muscle relaxation, yin postures target the connective tissue nourishing joints, ligaments, and fascia promoting the healthy flow of chi (energy). The Yin practice is a wonderful compliment to more vigorous yoga practices or activities such as running, cycling, and hiking. This practice is suitable and encouraged for all levels of practitioners.
Vinyasa Flow
A Vinyasa style class is all about movement and the flow of energy as you sync the body and the mind together through motion and breath. The beauty of Vinyasa Flow is there is no standard sequence, so the style, pace, and intensity will vary with each class and teacher. Variations on the Sun Salutation are often used as a warm-up followed by a standing sequence, balancing poses, seated poses, and a nice, juicy Savasana (relaxation pose). This class builds strength, endurance, and a strong focus. Modifications are offered if you are just getting started.
Circle of Love
Circle of Love is a Slow Vinyasa Flow class. We practice together in a circle with a candle in the center to symbolize the Light of Unity and to manifest our heart-felt desires. We end with Svanasana by placing a cold lavender towel on the forehead which represents the awakening of heart and mind, enriching the (Anahata) Heart Chakra.
Power Flow
An intermediate/advanced Vinyasa style class composed of intelligent and thoughtful sequencing that will allow you to connect breath with movement for a well-rounded Yoga experience. Take your practice to the next level with instruction towards various arm balances, backbends, inversions, and creative transitions.
Jamie’s yoga classes have the most incredible vibe – grounded, groovy and rhythmic… her personality and style are interwoven into every class in a way that allows her students to embrace in their own individuality. As a result, she shares the heart of yoga in the most accessible way. I always leave Jamie’s classes feeling physically and mentally rejuvenated and so grateful to be able to bring my whole self to the practice of yoga! HOLLI ILDERTON
Express power flow
An early morning powerful Vinyasa style 45-minute class that begins with sun salutations, leading into a creative vinyasa flow. ALL LEVELS ARE WELCOME BUT THIS IS A FAST-PACED CLASS. Expect dynamic movement with continuous flow and strengthening.
Yoga Strong
A well-rounded experience of integrating the whole, this practice invites us to stoke the inner fire known as “agni” and expand our capacity for self-awareness. Class begins by connecting to our breath and building heat through sun-salutations then shifts as we flow through creative sequencing and juicy holds designed to strengthen the major muscle groups while releasing tension in the body. This class moves at a slower pace than our Power Vinyasa classes but still incorporates instruction toward arm balances and inversions. Modifications and variations are offered throughout. All levels are welcome; please let the instructor know if you are new to Yoga.
*Deep Stretch & Flow
Enjoy the feeling of rejuvenation that arises from a deep stretch practice as you slow down, move from noise to silence, from agitation to calm, from complexity to simplicity. Our deep stretch class begins with a short, grounded flow to gently warm up the body, and is followed by passive holds of 1-4 minutes. This practice will help to create ease in the body and is a great option for runners, cyclists, or anyone dealing with muscle tightness or tension. Perfect for all levels.
*Renew & Restore
Explore the grounding wonders of rest with this highly effective form of Yoga which utilizes postures that are designed to restore the body and mind in a very gentle way. Class begins with pranayama and some gentle movement to warm up the body, then the majority of class is spent in deeply restorative postures that reboot the parasympathetic nervous system, unravel layers of tension in the body, and invite a profound inner experience for your whole being. Regular practitioners experience ease of joint pain, better sleep, mental clarity, and more. All levels welcome.
*Yoga foundations
This is a safe space for students who are brand new to Yoga, as well as those who want to grow their practice from a strong foundation of postural alignment & skillful breathing. Strength & flexibility are not required and will be gained through regular attendance. Deepen your breath, tap into inner strength, and become more aware of the relationship between your mind and body. Special attention is paid to learning alignment principles so students can progress safely to intermediate classes. Foundation level classes also teach a need-to-know for all yogis — how to modify poses to fit individual needs.
