Slow Flow Yoga

Water Element | Hot 90-95 or Warm 80-85

Class Length - 60 min

Like a ripple in the water this slow flow class has a meditative pace that links movement with breath at a much slower speed. Deep, mindful sequences help focus and relax you as you hold and sink into the alignment of each pose. Because of the slower pace, poses are more accessible and it is a great class for beginners. But slower doesn't mean less challenging.  Learning to find your breath in longer holds provides an opportunity to increase the mind body connection. Additional benefits include building strength, flexibility and balance. Expect to feel a wave of calm and rejuvenation that is created in this class.

Appropriate for all levels. Great for beginners.

Slow Flow Somatic Yoga

Water Element | Hot 90-95 or Warm 80-85

Class Length - 60 min

Our somatic movement practice emphasizes the internal experience of the body through a movement therapy that emphasizes re-educating the way your brain controls your muscles. It involves slow mindful, conscious movement aimed at increasing body awareness, improving flexibility and relieving emotional and physical tension. By focusing on how the body feels from the inside, rather than how it looks or performs externally, somatic movement encourages a deeper connection between the mind and body. This healing modality can be particularly beneficial for managing stress, enhancing well-being and recovering from physical injuries.

The benefits of this class are a heightened sense of relaxation, a release of trapped emotions that are effecting the body physically and an overall improvement in mobility, as we learn to move with greater ease and efficiency. All levels.
