Join Jesselle and BellaKai Pena for Kid’s yoga! Drop your kiddo off with a water bottle for an hour long class. We will lead them through breath work, meditations, yoga poses, yoga games and art/craft activities that will correlate with the theme of the class.
Solar Flow Mon/wed/fri 6:30 aM
Rise and shine in this empowering vinyasa class. This class will be a strong flow that will focus the mind and body through postures and movements in a warm room.
We welcome all levels in this class that is geared toward building strength and sweating. You will have the option to adjust and modify the practice to fit your individual needs.
Hatha
Tues/THurs 9:15 AM & 5:30 pm
A Hatha class brings asana (postures), kriyas (purification or cleansing techniques), pranayama (breathing techniques) and meditation (concentration) together. The intention of this class is to gently stimulate, relax and rejuvenate the body, calm the mind and connect to what matters most in life. Poses will be held for longer times giving you space to cultivate a deeper sense of being.
Gentle Yoga
Wednesday 10:45 PM, Saturday 8:00 AM
This class is about as gentle as it can get. A step up from restorative yoga we will blend somatics, restorative yoga, yin yoga, breath work with dynamic stretches to create a flexible body and calm mind.
Gentle Flow
Tues/Thurs 6:30 am & Thursday 5:30 pm
Enjoy the fluidity of movement as you lengthen and strengthen the muscles. We will focus on stretching, lubricating the joints and linking movement to breath within a gentle flowing class. New to yoga? Recovering from an injury? Balancing a vigorous practice with one that is a little more chill? All are welcome here!
Chakra Yoga
Mon 9:15 AM
Begin to unlock the power that lies within you with this gentle yoga class. The chakras or "subtle energies of light" are subtle energy bodies that lie along the spine, affecting the physical, emotional and spiritual well being. Through asana, breath work and meditation you will connect with these energy wheels, heightening awareness and improve health. All levels welcome.
Strong Flow Monday & Wednesday 6:00 PM
This class does not require you to have a strong flow but rather is designed to make your flow practice strong. The fun and intricate transitions and sequences through some challenging poses will grow your practice and strengthen your body. This is an all levels class but will be challenging for beginners at first.
Prana Flow
Tues/thurs 10:30 AM & Sunday 8:30 AM
This unique class is focused primarily on the breath while flowing slowly through the postures. We may begin in a restorative posture, move into some dynamic stretches and then dive into some breath work to establish a calm center. Then we will begin to flow in and out of poses at a slow enough pace to not interrupt your breath. This is a wonderfully relaxing and challenging hour!
Fundamental Flow Saturday 9:30 AM
This 75 minute class will take you through a sequence that will build upon itself. The idea is to teach you a strong foundation of basic poses and challenging ones, teach you ways to get through those tricky transitions you might find in strong flow or solar flow and to teach you how to move breath-to-breath like you do in prana flow. The final 15 minutes of the class will be reserved for workshopping the more difficult poses. This is a great class to submit requests to your teacher! If you found yourself struggling with a pose or transition earlier in the week, let them know!

Sushumna Yoga Wed 9:15, Fri 9:15
You are only as healthy as your spine is stable. The spine is the first structure that is formed in the womb and from there every other part of the body takes root. The spine is our central energy line or our sushumna where everything crosses and intersects.
In this class, which takes place mainly on the floor, you will strengthen your core, spine, pelvic floor and hips. This strength will aid in bettering your posture and balance. We will gain this strength through gentle movements borrowed from many practices and therapies, pranayama (breathing techniques) Meditations, kryas (cleanses) and yoga postures. This class is for all levels and all ages. It is particularly wonderful for the beginner and the aging body.
Yin + Yoga NIdra Friday 5:45 pm
Yin is a practice of acceptance and surrender. During this generous 75 minutes class you will be holding passive stretch poses for extended periods of time. Yin Specifically supports the deeper layers of the body such as fascia, connective tissue as well as bones and joints. The last third of the class will be spent being led through a deeply relaxing and nurturing Yoga Nidra or yoga sleep. Practicing Yin grows us in our self-awareness, creates space in the body and mind and supports the nervous system.
REstorative Yoga
Tuesdays 7 pm
This deeply relaxing class is unlike all the rest. Come to enjoy and unwind being present in your body and mind while holding still in chosen restorative postures. Each pose will be propped so that you can be supremely comfortable and simply rest while your body passively stretches.

Weekly time in your schedule to take class, observe class, assist in classes, read, write and study. (This is often the hardest part of the training; time management. We are pretty chill, as we know life happens even when we have a great plan. I always suggest taking three classes a week and plan on spending 1-2 hours of homework a week.)
You will receive a list of books you need to purchase to complete the homework all can be found on Amazon and other online sources. All Shine books will be provided and included in the training price.
