YOGA CLASS DESCRIPTIONS

2006-09-05T09:48:00.000-07:00

All Levels Yoga:
Modifications and options will be offered for all Levels. The teacher will give options and suggestions for you to adapt to what feels best for you on each day - everyone is welcome!

*
All Levels Power Yoga:
This is a fitness/power class suited to all levels, practicing basic poses with extra focus on fitness and strengthening the upper body and core muscles, followed by stretching and relaxation.
*

Gentle and Beginner Yoga:
For those who are new to yoga and looking for a place to start, and also for those who would like to continue to focus on the basic poses, breathing, stretching, strengthening and relaxation in a comfortable, non-judgmental atmosphere, and at your own pace.

Gentle Stretch and Relaxation Yoga:

A very beneficial class for all of us to take the time to include in our practice. Warming, stretching, and relaxation poses to invigorate, heal and restore in body, mind and spirit.

Intermediate to Advanced Yoga:
A strong working knowledge and experience with the basic poses is required. We will be working into intermediate and advanced inversions and back bends; adding challenging variations for strength, flexibility and balance, and also some new poses. Students will be encouraged to make choices to develop their yoga practice at their own pace.
*
Focus on Technique:
Please see below for the Technique Workshops scheduled on Saturdays. Students will receive extra instruction on where we should feel the strengthening and stretching, how to incorporate the breath, pose modifications and variations to suit each person, and how and when to safely increase the challenge as our practice develops.
****

Cardio Kick with Kathleen: (This is not a yoga class) Work to increase cardiovascular endurance, core body conditioning, and overall muscle strengthening. Based on traditional martial arts training, and designed to increase strength, endurance, agility, speed and balance. This is a very high energy, fast-paced class which gets great results. No contact or sparring. Work at your own pace to build endurance. For more information e-mail: kathleenyoga@gmail.com

New to Yoga?

Here is some information that may help.

- Wear bare feet and loose comfortable clothing. Longer shorts or light sweatpants and a t-shirt are fine.
- If you do not have a yoga mat yet, the studio has mats available for you to borrow.
- It is best not to practice yoga on a full stomach.
- Drinking water an hour or so before class will help you to not become thirsty during class. However, you can still bring a water bottle with you if you wish.
- Please do not chew gum during class. This can interfere with breathing, distract the other students, and possibly be a safety hazard in some poses.

In consideration for the other participants:

- We all try to be on time for class, but if you are late and class has started, please come into the studio very quietly so as not to disturb the class.
- Some people are very allergic to scents, so please do not wear perfume or cologne to class.
- Please try to remember to turn off your cell phone before class - unless you need to leave your phone on because you are "on call" - just let the teacher know.
