Hatha Yoga
Hatha Yoga is the most widely practiced form of yoga in the world. Hatha Yoga uses postures (asana) and conscious breathing (Pranayama) in combination with mental focus to develop awareness, strength and flexibility, and relaxation. Through proper alignment and mindful actions of the body, Hatha Yoga brings balance, strength, and a sense of well-being to the practitioner.

Pranayama / Breathwork
Classes include asana (poses), pratyahara (internalizing the focus of the mind and the senses,) and pranayama (expansion of primordial energy – prana through breathing exercises.) These classes fit all levels and helps students with Self-realization through bodily exercises and concentration of mental powers.
Vinyasa / Vinyasa Flow
Vinyasa yoga is a broad description today, but generally follows the yogic principles of vinyasa krama, or the purposeful progression through stages of poses. Movement is synchronized to the breath. Classes usually start with pranayama, basic grounding, and sun salutations, then build on them with progressively more challenging asanas. Each step of the way prepares you for the next. Classes end in Savasana reclined meditation.
In Vinyasa Flow, the purposeful progression is more fluid and creative, where attention is also given to the smooth transitions between poses, and individual poses are held for a shorter time. The breath acts as a grounding and centering to the movement as you flow through the practice. A dynamic system of practicing asana, it builds heat, endurance, flexibility, strength, and concentration.
