My intention is to create a safe space where everyone can share their own thoughts and feelings without judgement.
My yoga classes are not only about practicing poses but also lead you to turn inward to discover a deeper layer of yourself. I usually start with information or a theme regarding our life and then we can refer that to our yoga practice. The way we practice yoga is the way we are in life. Our personality, characteristics, habits and belief systems don’t just disappear when we do yoga. Then we set the intention to whatever resonates with you through your practice. Once we build up more awareness of how your personality shows up on your mat, you can learn and grow as an individual.
Monday morning Hatha 9:30 (Level 1) includes asanas, Qing gong and a focus on breath. In this class, we move pose to pose and hold poses longer to allow the breath to flow through our bodies. As we do that, we purify the body as a path that leads to purify the mind. The purification of the body and mind is essential also to our health. Being and staying healthy is a primal goal in yoga.
Monday evening Yang Yin 18:30 (Level 1-2) sometimes the class is designed to stimulate Chinese Meridians and most of the time is focused on listening to the wisdom of our body and inner voice. We start a slow pace flow (Yang) to warm up our body, working on muscles and blood. The passive (Yin) poses are held for longer, working on the deep layer of connective tissues and joints in the body.
Wednesday Morning Rise and Stretch 9:30 (Level 1-2) is the best way to start your day and to relieve any tension or pain from sleeping. I will guide you to working on creating the space for your body and lengthening the muscles to release tension.
Wednesday evening Yoga flow 18:00 (Level 1-2) incorporates slow pace movement through a series of asanas and is the best way to finish your day or after your work.
Saturday morning Align and Shine 9:30 (Level 2) is a style of alignment and heart based Vinyasa yoga flow and centred on alignment & heart-based practices.
