CURRENTLY at the STUDIO

ATHA

ATHA is an intensive class with strong roots in the Iyengar tradition. Multiple disciplines of Hatha Yoga are drawn upon to reach the student from where they reside in current practice and enlighten a path for deeper, more personal study.

Observation of posture with suggestions for refinement through the use of props, cues, and philosophies can move the student into a truly embodied practice.

“Atha” translates from Sanskrit to “now”. “Hatha Yoga” (translated as “force”; the quality from a complimentary dynamic of sun “Ha” and moon “Tha”) in this context is reference to Patanjali’s “Astanga” (8-limb) system of Raja yoga.

*Class is not suitable for beginners or those with limited mobility. 2 years of previous yogasana study is an essential pre-requisite.

All props are provided, however; your own eye-pillow, and yoga mat are recommended.

LUNA: RESTORATIVE YOGA & SOUND

a 60min weekly series of 3.

Restorative Yoga involves long restful fully supported postures using props.  This provides comfort and ease of breath, creating a quiet invitation to release tension and stress from a place of stillness.  

Gentle guided Pranayama (breathing) meditations open our awareness to the felt resonant vibrations of crystal bowls, and mantra… cultivating the awareness to access a calm nervous system that provides opportunity for attunement to the subtle body.

These meditations are accompanied with the gentle sounds and an orchestral array of crystal quartz singing bowls tuned at 432Hz and other gentle sounds for listeners to receive an intuitive soundscape channeled in the moment. Through hearing & feeling the harmonic vibrations of sound, your body is invited to experience deeper states of rest, stillness, and connection.

*Class is suitable for beginners and continuing students, including those with limited mobility (with the permission of a physician).

All props are provided, however; your own eye-pillow, and yoga mat are recommended.  Dress in warm layers to accommodate changes in body temperature and befriend your spectrum of comfort.
