YOGA PRACTICE - A Body-Mind Experience:
The guided flows of warm-ups, postures and breathing techniques below give students of all levels opportunities to learn and clarify details, add new postures to their repertoire, and take their practice to deeper levels. With the increased awareness that comes through practice, you'll begin to understand and respond to the needs of your body, observe your mind and behaviors with more clarity, and open to deeper spiritual attunement. A complete experience, each class begins with centering and ends with relaxation and integration. Our teachers are skilled and creative in the sequencing, mood and tone of their classes - each class a unique expression of teacher-student energy, and a unique experience of yoga.

Kripalu Yoga: A flow of postures with emphasis on body awareness, alignment and coordination of breath & movement. Students are encouraged to practice at their own level, using variations and modifications to give postures more or less challenge. Classes may be enhanced by music, rhythms and inspirational readings to promote meditative awareness.

Vinyasa: A powerful flow of hatha yoga postures, linked through a series of connecting movements (vinyasa), synchronized with smooth, deep breathing (ujjayi), gaze (dristi) and locks (bandhas).

AtmaYoga: A contemplative, gentle yet dynamic class, employing core strength, compassionate self awareness and inner stillness.

Happy Hour Yoga Dance: Join Anita Sanci for a delightful evening of Kripalu Danskinetics, partner yoga, free flow Kripalu Yoga, creative movement and interactive fun. Often called "the dance of yoga" or "moving yoga," this class provides an opportunity to reconnect with your body and heart as you move to the music and beat of your own inner rhythm.
