Yin Yoga is a slower form of yoga with longer hold times than other styles of yoga like Vinyasa yoga. Most poses are done seated, prone or supine. The goal of Yin Yoga is to target the connective tissues like ligaments, tendons, and fascia with the aim of increasing circulation in the joints and improving flexibility. Since Yin poses are held longer we only start out at about seventy percent of our capability to find our edge in each pose. Hold times can vary per class. For beginners, hold times can start anywhere from 1-3 minutes per pose. Intermediate practitioners may experience holds of 3-5 minutes per pose while those that have been practicing longer may have worked up to 10 minute holds.

This class is beginner friendly and can be a great way to learn yoga. Its pace is generally slower than a Vinyasa class. We will still flow through poses but will hold poses typically 3 - 5 breaths allowing us to move with more awareness. This allows us to leave more time to find mindfulness in our movements and awareness of the breath. Think of it as a moving meditation. Participants still need to be able to get up and down from the floor easily. Please bring your own yoga mat along with any props you have as they are not provided.

A private yoga consultation is an opportunity for each person to have a 1:1 sit down to discuss your needs and what you are expecting to gain from the practice of yoga. During this time we will discuss your current lifestyle. For example: your daily routine as it relates to your current physical ability as well as any health issues or concerns you may want to share so that we are able to outline a wellness routine to fit your lifestyle. We will also complete a client intake form so that we can assess your current lifestyle and schedule and to see if we are a good fit to work together. If I feel that your needs are outside of my scope of practice or they do not align with my current offerings or schedule availability I will be glad to refer you to another teacher with more experience than myself.

There is no class offered today. Enjoy the holiday.

Join me for a local walk and talk where we will discuss how to take part in a mindful walk. This is a very simple form of meditation that can be done almost anywhere. We can practice different ways of walking mindfully and see what option works best for you. There is a basic skill of learning to be present in the moment and letting go of whatever else arises during your walk. This walk can also be a walk and talk exercise where we can release whatever is no longer serving you through discussion and enlist the 8 limb path of yoga to help you find a state of blissful peace and enlightenment. If you are interested in taking this class then please message me for details as this class is location based and by appointment only. I am available to meet during the week around my class offerings with advance booking in the following areas. Leeds, Moody, Odenville and Springville.

If you would like to reserve a space on my schedule in order to hold a class then you would need to pay the class booking fee. This fee is $30.00 and is non refundable.

Restorative yoga is the practice of softening into yoga poses with the help and support of yoga props such as blankets, bolsters, blocks and straps. The yoga poses can be held up to 20 minutes at a time so there can be very few poses per class. Restorative yogas purpose is to allow the body to relax so it is a very passive practice that allows us to drop into a deep state of awareness allowing us to surrender to our true self. Restorative yoga allows the body to start healing, leading us away from suffering which is yogas true and highest purpose.

This class is a special offering as it is prop intensive and there are only so many spaces per class. Please make sure to register and verify space limits if you do not have your own yoga props.
