What to Expect:


Most of our classes run 1.5 hours. During this time, you are encouraged to work at your own level. Always inform the teacher of any health concerns.

Introduction to Yoga:  Learn what Yoga is about and how it can improve your life! This class includes a brief lecture about Yoga history, its benefits, a short, gentle session, and Q&A.

Beginners' Gentle Yoga:  Start where you are today. This class is suitable for the absolute beginner as well as students with physical challenges who prefer a slower, therapeutic class. Explore the basic alignment principles, breathing exercises, meditation techniques and philosophy to guide you towards a fuller, richer life.

Intermediate Yoga:  Iyengar says, "How can I teach you to stand on your head if you cannot stand on your feet." This class is for students who have learned the basic alignment principles of Tadasana and are ready to explore advanced poses including inversions, standing, and seated as well as advanced pranayama, and philosophy. If you are ready to move to the next level of practice, ask your teacher if this class is for you.

All Levels Yoga: This class is open to everyone. Deepen your practice with detailed alignment.

Yoga with Tara:  Each class integrates the basic essentials and importance of posture, flexibility, mindfulness, breath and mobility for health and wholeness. From the mat to the desk chair, these classes encourage well-being, less stress and full presence in your daily life. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced practitioner, be inspired to feel strong in spine, mind and spirit! 

Restorative Yoga:  This is a deep practice of letting go. Careful positioning with the use of props help to support the body in gentle, passive back bends, forward bends, twists and inversions, while allowing the student to sink deep into the body and mind. This class is suitable for all levels. It is often used for deep healing from illness or emotional stress. Aaaaahh...

Aerial Yoga:  These anti-gravity classes combine traditional yoga methodology and the alignment principles of Iyengar with the amazing benefits of weightlessness for buoyancy, strength and deep relaxation. The most exciting aspect to these classes is that the Yoga Swings make it possible for all levels to experience added fun and ease in the practice. Our aerial yoga classes are designed to modify all postures to include the support of the swing. As with the use of any yoga prop, you will find that you can hold and balance in the poses longer to fully experience their healing effects.  Increase joint mobility, decompress the vertebrae of the spine, open the hips, remove the weight from the knees, increase blood flow to the brain, mellow the nervous system and all while inspiring the kid inside of you to learn and explore new things! These sessions blend the art of aerial acrobatics and dance with the art of asana to fly your practice into new dimensions. Click here to learn more and stay tuned for additional classes coming to the studio soon!

You should not try inversion therapy if you have high blood pressure, heart disease, eye diseases such as glaucoma, or hardware from a spinal fusion.  Such people need to progress very slowly, starting at very light levels of inversion.  Please consult your doctor about it first.

Aerial Attire - For hygienic reasons and to avoid fabric burns wear clothing that covers your underarms and knees. No zippers, snaps, or jewelry.  Wedding bands are okay. 

 


What to Wear:  Loose, comfortable clothes and bare feet... Please remove shoes downstairs.

What to Bring:   A yoga mat is required. If you do not have one, we have mats available for loan or purchase. We also supply other useful Yoga props such as blocks, sandbags, eye pillows, and belts.
