Class Descriptions
Beach Yoga (April - November)
Beach yoga is great for all levels. We meet on the beach at the Ocean Front Park Beach access just north of the Kure Beach Pier. The GPS address for the beach access is 110 Atlantic Avenue. Bring your own beach towel to enjoy an all levels yoga flow class on the beach. Breathe in the breath of the ocean, stretch, strengthen, and enjoy our beautiful beach with the soundtrack of the waves crashing to shore.
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.
Gentle Yoga
This class is great for all levels including beginners and is ideal for those looking for a feel-good full body yoga practice. We use bolsters and blocks for support in stretches, move through a spinal stretch and a few standing postures. The class wraps up with a lovely savasana with optional adjustments.
Hatha Yoga
This grounding and balanced practice emphasizes mindful movement, breath awareness, and proper alignment. The class integrates gentle postures with extended holds to promote strength, flexibility, and relaxation. Suitable for all experience levels, Hatha Yoga encourages a slower pace, fosters self-connection, and supports participants in achieving a centered and revitalized state.
Stretch Strengthen and Restore Yoga
We will stretch, move a little in a gentle series that includes strengthening poses, then make our way on to the mat for more strengthening and stretching then move into the sweet rest of savasana.
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.
