In this all levels vinyasa flow class, we will move mindfully through a sequence of asanas (poses) to cultivate balance between flexibility and strength, movement and stillness, and effort and ease.  These classes are designed to bring us back to the sensations in our body and the movement of our breath to feel and find our way to greater freedom on and off our mats. A blend of meditation, pranayama (breathwork), and soothing soundscapes as well as a luxurious savasana (resting pose) will be offered each week. By practicing together and sharing time on our mats and with our breath, we join a global community (sangha) of yogis.
