Gentle
Structured around maintaining and/or increasing mobility, without causing strain or discomfort to the muscles or joints of the body. Options are given and props, such as blankets or bolsters, are used to accommodate each student's needs. This class is appropriate for all levels, including those with limited movement +
Beginners Hatha Yoga
Beginners hatha yoga, students learn the fundamentals of yoga, including traditional warmups, basic poses (asanas), optional poses, and most importantly, breath, body, and mind awareness. Concise descriptions of how to get into poses, as well as modifications for all levels are provided. The class is suitable for all levels.+
Guided Meditation With Vasanthi
Vasanthi Iyer has extensive experience leading workshops for entrepreneurs and is currently a presenter with the Art of Living Institute in Boone, NC. Scientific studies have proved meditation is helpful for stress related illnesses including heart disease and hypertension. Meditation does not require a lot of time, however, the time you put into it is worth the effort. It reduces blood pressure and heart rate, which alleviates unnecessary pressure on your heart and arteries. When stress levels are reduced, the immune system is boosted and so is our general wellbeing. It is like putting diamonds in the bank!
MELT
The MELT Method® is a breakthrough self-treatment system that restores the supportive function of the body's connective tissue to help eliminate chronic pain and improve your life. Accumulated stress caused by repetitive postures and movements of everyday living is dissolved.
This form of myofacial release helps with inflammation, rehydration of the body's cells, muscle fatigue, corrects muscle imbalances, improves flexibility and increases range of motion
Strengthening Mixed Level
Geared for yoga practitioners who would like to explore advanced asanas (poses) and different variations of standard asanas in a strengthening way. Emphasis on deepening one's practice, strengthening the physical body while respecting one's limits. Options are available. Suitable for those individuals with prior yoga experience and/or those who have completed a Beginners Yoga session and feel ready to move into advanced asanas.+
Barre Fusion
Class is a mindful, intentional, interval workout with light weights, balls, and body bands, toning upper body, lower body and everything in between. The best workout offered in a yoga studio! Each strength section of the workout is followed by a stretching section in order to create long, lean muscles without bulk. See a difference in your body and strength.
Yoga Nidra
Yoga Nidra or Yogic Sleep is an ancient form of meditation that takes you to the deepest levels of relaxation while still remaining alert. Addressing the root of all problems physical, mental, emotional and spiritual, it alleviates the cause of stress and awakens inner healing. Nidra frees you from old destructive patterns and reconnects you to the source of your own power, changing your consciousness and your life to align with your highest truth. No yoga experience necessary. + (Classes descriptions with + automatically incorporate a form of Yoga Nidra into the relaxation portion at the end of class)
Yoga for Scoliosis and the Spine
Class will breakdown the traditional asanas and breath to develop a structural alignment, creating a more normal symmetrical alignment. This is accomplished by use of props, stretching muscles that have tightened and strengthening muscles that have become weak from this asymmetrical imbalance. Thereby the body will create a more effortless posture using the bone structure, rather than over working the muscles to hold itself up. Helpful in eliminating pain and bring some balance to the spine. +
Joyful Yoga Mixed Level
Refresh your body and mind with Roz on Monday evenings. Experience a supportive, nurturning, joyful and mindful yoga class. Calming centering, popular asana, fun balance challenges, soothing cool down, some breathwork and well deserved relaxation all in one class. Suitable for beginning students as well as those with a daily practice.
Yin Yoga
A Yin practice soothes and relaxes body and mind bringing balance to an overactive lifestyle including a mind that will not slow down. This style of yoga is characterized by gentle traction of connective tissue, including the ligaments and fascia. Fascia is a living matrix, giving energy to every cell, organ and tissues of the body. Yin poses are held for a few minutes or longer, to hydrate the fascia, increase flexibility, remove stiffness from joints, all while training the mind and body to find peace.

The class is in honor and memory of Matthew Seidler, Airman 1st Class who paid the ultimate sacrifice to his country in January 2012 and, Ryan Cernohorsky, SGT. USMC. who suffered from PTSD.
