Specialty ClasseS:
Chill and Release
Let your body say: Ahhh
Let your body say 'ahhh' with this sweet flow and release. Class starts with a slow flow to warm the body and culminates in myofascial release work designed to heal and restore the body. This class is the *perfect* compliment to your rigorous practice and a favorite way to take care!
All levels welcome
Tune UP: Myo Release
Release and Heal
Add some 'ahhh' to your flows with this therapeutic release technique designed to release immobility and pain by improving circulation and stimulating the lymphatic system. Tap in and dive deep for an hour of myofascial release. Working to directly eliminate tension built and residing in our interconnective tissue and muscles with the help of yoga tune up® therapy balls, we will use hands-on techniques to eliminate pain and restore balance to the body in this self-care practice. Come in, tune up and treat your body right!
All levels welcome, but recommended for students with a regular practice.
FLow & Breathe
Tune Into You
Find space and serenity as we slow the flow and move like honey through shapes that will indulge your focus and attention. Class will finish lying down for an active breathwork practice set to the beat of the music, allowing for a total mind/body re-set and re-fresh.
