Yin Yoga:

All Levels

Yoga For Men

Yoga experts say women tend to see classes as refuges while men see challenges.

“Women are shaped in a way that permits an unusually large range of motion and joint play. In yoga, the pelvis is the central pivot for extreme bending of the legs, spine and torso.”

“Guys have more muscle (one reason for their relative inflexibility) and can thus force themselves into challenging poses they might otherwise find impossible. It seems a plausible explanation for blinding pain.”

“It’s men’s strength turning against them“

Join us for a different type of class designed to open up men’s shoulders, back, hips and legs.

We will use a multitude of props to support the body into a safe position and develop stronger, more purposeful breath work to release connective tissue.

 

GENTLE YOGA

All Levels

Gentle yoga is a gentler style of hatha yoga practice. It is performed at a slower pace, with less intense positions, and includes extended time for meditation, yogic breath work, and relaxation. Modifications are done to help people of all fitness levels enjoy the benefits of yoga without putting themselves at risk for injuries. There is a stronger emphasis on stretching, seated poses and low-impact movements.
