For extra comfort, please bring a small pillow for under your head, socks are nice during relaxation, and an eye pillow or cloth for complete darkness and quieting of the nervous system.
Yin Yang Yoga: Yin Yang Yoga provides the benefits of a balanced practice of Yin and Yang styles of yoga. The Yin style of long-held passive poses opens the body to more flexibility and chi flow through the subtle channels while also engendering a more contemplative, non-reactive quality of mind. A more active, dynamic, Yang style of vinyasa will follow, strengthening and invigorating the body and mind. We close this class with a short meditation.
Yin Yoga: Yin yoga utilizes long held floor poses to enhance the Chi or energy distribution through the Yin parts of the body, namely the bones and connective tissue that bind them. These mainly static postures coax Chi into the respective meridians (the unseen riverbeds through which Chi travels), thereby functioning as a kind of needle-less acupuncture treatment. This style of practice, done slowly and safely, nourishes the natural range of motion of the joints, which allows for more ease in seated meditation postures. It also flushed the meridians housed in these connective tissues, directly effecting and enhancing particular organs.
Boot camp: It’s for everyone: Don’t be afraid, Its fun!!
Push yourself past self imposed limitations. Stretch, strengthen, and tone your body. Warm up with some gentle yoga stretching and then power it up! We will work the muscles of the entire body creating strength and burning calories. Laughing is a must! Release stretching to end and of course we will close with breath and a relaxing Savasana.

And when we get into the flow….we experience outrageous abundance! It’s all about overcoming fear! Please join Karrie as she leads us through Yoga Therapy, also known as Yoga Chikitsa, a traditional series of postures, systematically arranged to create healing of the Body, Mind and Spirit. This Ashtanga series will be taught in the tradition of Sri K. Pattabhi Jois of Mysore, India. This flowing set, sequence of postures utilizes the ujjayi breath and bandhas (energy locks) to increase muscular strength, flexibility and concentration. Through this full series Ashtanga Class or Yoga Therapy, you will learn meditation skills perfect for when we all experience shifts… These shifts sometimes cause defensive attitudes and avoidance.
