Welcome to our green yoga space. A sacred container where you are loved and guided into being. Just breathe, relax, and let your body move with intention and flow. Our dedicated Yoga instructors are committed to their sacred practice and provide an array of yoga practices for all
YANG YOGA
Yang yoga poses often emphasize strength and endurance, they are active, powerful, and generate heat in the body. When combined with a more relaxing and gentle sequence, the practice is then known as Yin Yang yoga or a Yin Yang yoga sequence. Traditionally, yin and yang are thought of as complementary (not opposites). Thus, balancing your more physically demanding yoga practice with gentle and restorative postures can be a way to create balance and harmony.
YIN YOGA
Suitable for almost all levels of students. Yin Yoga generally targets the connective tissues of the hips, pelvis, and lower spine to increase circulation in the joints & improve flexibility. Yin Yoga is a slower practice where poses are passively held for longer . This practice will bring awareness of inner silence where you can experience an interconnecting quality of oneness & flow within your body.
ACRO YOGA
This class is suitable for all levels of Yoga. It brings in the playful, powerful, and technical influences of acrobatics. The philosophy of yoga embedded in it takes it beyond just an individual practice as it involves working with a partner. A typical session starts with connecting with yourself, and then with other bodies, through partner yoga or group work. You will learn to lift each other while being lifted (both physically & emotionally). Bringing to you a sense of alignment that is freeing and fun!
KUNDALINI YOGA
Kundalini yoga derives from Kundalini, defined in Vedantic culture as energy that lies dormant at the base of the spine until it is activated and channeled upward through the chakras in the process of spiritual awakening. Chakras are wheels, or hubs of energy, along which energy or prana, travels like a superhighway to distribute energy throughout the body. Kundalini Yoga prepares the body’s nervous system and mind to channel the energy of this Kundalini rising . Many of the physical postures are designed to activate the navel, spine, and focal points of pressurization on your meridians (energy points). Through breath work (pranayama) and the application of yogic locks of energy (bandhas), the release, direction, and control of the flow of Kundalini energy is achieved. It is recommended to wear all white.
TAI CHI
Tai chi is an ancient Chinese tradition that, today, is practiced as a graceful form of exercise. It involves a series of movements performed in a slow, focused manner and accompanied by deep breathing. Originally developed for self-defense, tai chi has evolved into a graceful form of exercise that's now used for stress reduction and a variety of other health conditions. Often described as meditation in motion, tai chi promotes serenity through gentle, flowing movements.

VINYASA
Vinyasa is a style of yoga characterized by stringing postures together so that you move from one to another, seamlessly, using breath. Commonly referred to as “flow” yoga. Vinyasa classes offer a variety of postures and no two classes are ever alike. The variable nature of Vinyasa Yoga helps to develop a more balanced body as well as prevent repetitive motion injuries that can happen if you are always doing the same thing every day. As a philosophy, Vinyasa recognizes the temporary nature of things. We enter into a posture, are there for a while and then leave.Vinyasa is a breath initiated practice that connects every action of our life with the intention of moving towards what is sacred, or most important to us.
HATHA YOGA
Hatha yoga is the overarching umbrella of yoga that encompasses most of the traditional styles, including Vinyasa and Ashtanga. Directly translated to “willful” or “forceful” in Sanskrit, Hatha yoga is the fundamental system of yoga that focuses on the pairing of poses or “asanas” with breathing techniques or “pranayama.” It uses the practice of the pose to rinse out the body and build the physical strength and endurance required to spend long periods of time in meditation. Once the Hatha yoga practice is complete, an ideal mind body harmony is felt to facilitate deep, relaxing meditation. This dynamic allows for a greater focus on alignment and mindful breathing, making the practice accessible to yogis of all levels, especially beginners.
VEDIC YOGA
Vedic Yoga is the oldest form of Yoga dating back to the Rig Veda, which is perhaps the oldest book in the world. It is said to have been practiced during the Golden Age. It is a practice based upon the traditional teachings of the Vedas which are the oldest Sanskrit writings. The practice of Vedic Yoga aims to teach us our true nature which is that of universal consciousness.
