• Hatha Harmony (Monday at 9:30 AM): A strong Hatha class focused on alignment and building foundational strength for the week ahead.

• Somatic Yin (Tuesday at 7:30 PM): A slow, meditative class focusing on long holds and connective tissue release, perfect for unwinding after a long day.

I’ve added exciting new classes to help you find your unique balance of energy and rest:

New Freedõm Flow

When: Thursday Evenings, 6:30 PM – 7:30 PM

The Practice: This class is a unique fusion of Vinyasa Yoga and fluid Somatic Movement. You will move gracefully and continuously, synchronizing breath to action. The focus is less on rigid alignment and more on self-exploration, releasing chronic tension, and experiencing a state of effortless "Flow" that cleanses the body and clears the mind.

Perfect for: Anyone ready for a dynamic, creative, and mindful challenge.

New Deep Rest

When: Sunday 7-8:30 PM, monthly

Practice: A restorative yoga session finished with 30 minutes of a dreamy Sound Bath.

New Deep Sleep

When: Friday 7-8:15 PM, monthly

Practice: A 45 minutes of Yoga Nidra - Yogic Sleep followed by 30 minutes of a Sound Healing.
