If you are new to yoga, no matter what age, please come to Gentle Yoga for several sessions. Then decide if you want to try the more intense styles.

Gentle Yoga Our most popular class; ideal for beginners, pre and postnatal or returning students. You will learn basic yogic breathing techniques, classic yoga poses and the philosophy of yoga and meditation. Gentle Yoga is deeply beneficial for the spine, hips, knees, and shoulders

Gentle Vinyasa Flow Yoga Building upon Gentle Yoga basics and benefits and going deeper into linking breath to a slow flow of yoga poses. Deeper exploration into yogic breathing and meditation techniques. Benefits the whole mind, body and spirit with a little more challenging yoga experience.

Vinyasa Yoga Our most challenging and creative style of yoga. It is a fast moving and intense flow of mostly standing poses and intermediate/advanced yoga positions. This is suitable for athletic beginners. Intensifies the focus to the breath and meditation techniques. Some yoga experience would be helpful but not necessary. This is a hot style of yoga, please bring a small hand towel and dress in layers.

Restorative Yoga Yoga Therapy—extremely relaxing, rejuvenating and healing class. This style works in the nervous system to restore the connection and balance between the mind and body and spirit. This is an excellent non-weight bearing style of yoga for recuperation from illness, injury, surgery or a long period of inactivity.  

Men's Yoga (but not just for men) An athletic astanga style of yoga taught by a man, for a man's body type. Yoga poses are linked to the breath to create increased concentration, flexibility, improved circulation, stamina, strength and reduction of stress. Suitable for all continuing students and genders but be prepared to work hard.
