Yin yoga poses apply moderate stress to the connective tissues—the tendons, ligaments, and fascia—with the aim of increasing circulation in the joints and improving flexibility. A yin practice is meant to complement a yang practice, or more vigorous forms of exercise. Yin postures are passive, long-held postures wherein the muscles are relaxed so that the pose can work to go beyond stretching the muscle and works to get deeper within the body. Come learn more about the Yin Yoga practice and it's benefits during this two (2) hour workshop with Amanda. *$20.00/Workshop |

Chaturanga Dandasana Posture Clinic

The Sanskrit word Chaturanga Dandasana means Four Limbed Staff Pose. This is one of the most elusive transitions/postures of the Ashtanga-Vinyasa tradition. Understanding the anatomy and alignment of Chaturanga Dandasana is essential to both practicing and teaching Ashtanga-Vinyasa Yoga. Chaturanga Dandasanda is not a beginner’s posture. It is important that you are keeping your shoulders safe during strength training drills and in the full execution of this pose. Join Amanda T. and Lil S. for a thorough break-down and posture clinic! *Normal Class // Drop-In & Package Rates Apply |

aUM Yoga celebrates the changing of the seasons by leading a Yoga Mala or 108 Sun Salutations. A group of people moving through Surya Namaskar together creates a beautiful, cohesive energy that honors our collective humanity. A Yoga Mala can be done at the change of a season (Spring/Fall Equinox & Summer/Winter Solstice), a holy day, or for any significant event. In this 90 minute class, the Yoga Mala is performed without pause. There is a quiet meditation at the beginning, at which time the yogi sets an intention for this moving meditation, followed by a traditional spinal warm-up before beginning. The breath is maintained throughout the practice (Ujjayi breath should be used if possible). The group moves and breaths as one. Practitioners are encouraged to rest if needed. Celebrate with us! *Normal Class // Drop-In & Package Rates Apply |
