Vinyasa Yoga
Our Vinyasa classes are great for all levels and are ideal for those looking to gain more strength from their yoga practice. This class includes dynamic movements between yoga poses. This flow of movement is excellent for getting your heart rate going and working up a sweat. Vinyasa can also help increase flexibility, strength, stability, calmness, and focus.
Reggae Yoga
This class is a laid back, slower paced Vinyasa style class set to Reggae music. Each class usually incorporates Samdhaana Yoga, a practice for healing the energetic body and strengthening the physical body. Some classes may be delivered in mandala format, as the mandala itself offers many aspects of healing. The energy of the body is constantly seeking balance, with the heart being at the center of that balance. In warmer months, Reggae Yoga is held on the Ocean Front Stage to take in the beautiful ocean views and sounds of the sea.

Healthy Bodies Yoga
Healthy bodies is a class focused on helping you move and feel your best in your life on and off of the mat. Options will be offered for all levels.Yoga promotes a healthy body by improving flexibility, strength, and balance. It also enhances respiratory function, reduces stress, and supports mental well-being through mindfulness and relaxation techniques.
Yin Yoga
In this class we will target and increase circulation in the deepest tissues of the body, our connective tissues. Ligaments, joints, bones, the deep fascia networks of the body and meridians. This is accomplished by holding poses anywhere from two to seven minutes. We will work on finding stillness in your posture and in your mind. Yin yoga is great for increasing flexibility, calming your nervous system and reducing stress and sleep disturbances.
Chair Yoga
While Chair Yoga is one of the gentlest forms of yoga available, through regular practice, chair yoga can also provide you with a path for increased balance, strength, flexibility, range of motion, increased mental clarity and stress reduction. This class is accessible for everyone regardless of any limited mobility issues you may be experiencing. It can even be beneficial for those who have an existing more advanced yoga practice but want to stretch stiff muscles, open up stiff joints or simply want to stop and step out of the busyness of everyday life. No previous yoga experience is necessary. We will primarily explore the poses while seated but may also add standing poses using a chair for support.

We will build on deepening the poses and adding breath work as a component to movement while learning to stretch, strengthen and energize.
