Class Descriptions

Gentle/ Beginner Hatha Yoga is a form of yoga that uses posture and breathing methods as a means to health and well-being. Learn to stretch, strengthen and release tension while developing concentration and body awareness. This class is designed for anyone new to yoga or continuing students. Includes basic yoga postures and breathing practices, ending with a final relaxation.

Kundalini Yoga is a 5,000 year-old authentic system of yogic exercise and meditation that promotes health, happiness, and spiritual awareness. There are three basic components to Kundalini Yoga. There are the physical postures, literally thousands of kriyas (exercise sets) that strengthen and balance the nervous system, the glandular system and the circulatory system to promote optimum physical and emotional health. Breathing techniques (pranayam) assist a person in processing emotions and feelings, controlling moods, and developing concentration. Meditation techniques work to direct and discipline the mind. The practice of this yoga can give you the strength, courage and radiance to meet all of life's challenges with grace. Learn how this ancient technology of posture, breath,  mantra and meditation can strengthen all body systems, quiet your mind and help you to reach your fullest potential. This yoga is simple, deeply transformative and fun.   

Power Yoga Flow is an intermediate yoga class incorporating sun salutations, strength building standing series, followed by advanced core work and of course a relaxing savasana. Previous yoga experience required.

Tai Chi, the flowing movements of Tai Chi are a moving meditation where we experience the flow of energy within and around us. Chi flow in the body follows the path of the nervous system, vascular system and meridian lines. The movements of Tai-Chi were created to enhance this flow leading to greater health, vitality and longevity. As we cultivate this supreme, ultimate energy we become perceptively in tune with our body and mind. Tai Chi’s intimate relationship allows us to direct our own energies to heal.

Zumba is dance fitness set to Latin music with dance moves. One can also have two left feet and still do the program. You don’t have to be a dancer. It works the whole body — cardio and abs. You can burn from 500 to 1,000 calories in one Zumba class. It’s exercise in disguise. Everyone has smiles who does it.
