Ideal for all levels with modifications offered, these energetic sessions begin with Sun Salutations and build strength and flexibility. Our experienced instructors create creative sequences that challenge both beginners and advanced practitioners while maintaining accessibility through progressive variations.

Combining traditional Yin postures with guided meditation, these sessions help students develop patience and mindfulness while releasing physical tension and mental stress.
