Hatha Yoga
Hatha Yoga
with Paul Hasegawa Overacker
1 hour and 15 minutes
This morning, Hatha practice begins with pranayama (breathing) to focus on stretching, flexibility, and the single-minded calm of just being. It is simple; from Sun Salutations to balanced inversions, at times challenging, but ultimately refreshing and meditative. Energize with straightforward asana sequences to strengthen the metabolism and muscular stability. Find your transformation, from novice to experienced, and work at your level of practice to create the kind of day you intend.

Yin Yoga

Suitable for most levels of students. Yin Yoga is a perfect complement to the dynamic (yang) styles of yoga, generally targeting the connective tissues in the body. This class offers passive movement that is challenged by holding supported postures longer to achieve deep flexibility. Yoga for the soul.
