Beginners Flow
- This class is for those students wishing to practice the art of flow both in
yoga and in life. We will use conscious breathing to create a state of internal
and external flow while practicing smooth, fluid transitions between postures.
This class is for experienced beginners who wish to take their practice to the
next level. Includes some challenging Vinyasa Flow sequences to create heat in
the body.
Vinyasa -This class is for strong beginners and intermediate level students who enjoy a more energizing and vigorous practice and who have a firm foundation in the alignment of the basic postures. Instructor Dee Greenberg drawing on 37 years of experience with yoga, will create a unique flow each week based on the needs of the students in attendance. Dee has studied Prana Vinyasa Flow Yoga with Shiva Rea for the past 4 years and draws on this experience to create challenging posture sequences. The primary goal of this class is to create a safe environment where each student can begin to experience the divinity within. This is accomplished by leading students into physically challenging postures while encouraging a strong internal focus, and by using the breath to calm the mind. Postures are taught in stages so you can work at your own level.
All classes include centering techniques to create harmony between mind, body and spirit as well as warm-ups to create mobility in all the joints of the body. There is always an emphasis on proper breathing technique as the foundation of the practice. In addition, classes may include some chanting and meditation.
Please arrive at the studio at least 5 minutes early to insure entrance to the class. The door will be locked during class - so if you arrive late you may not be able to attend the class. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
