Intro to Vinyasa Yoga 4-Week Series

Our NEW Introduction to Vinyasa Yoga Series is the perfect place to begin your Vinyasa yoga practice or reawaken your existing practice. Vinyasa is a style of yoga that incorporates smooth, fluid movement synchronized with breath…a flowing style of yoga.

This 4-week series is taught progressively using demonstration and discussion to introduce the fundamentals of yoga while learning proper alignment, transitions and safe modifications. We will learn basic sun salutation sequences, traditional poses and core integration exercises to strengthen and stretch both body and mind. Each class will bring focus to yoga breathing which calms the mind and reduces stress. We will sprinkle in a little history and philosophy of yoga, try not to take ourselves too seriously and allow plenty of time for your questions. This series is the perfect preparation for our Vinyasa style classes and may be taken multiple times.

For those looking for a more gentle/meditative practice, please try Gentle Yoga. A more intense/vigorous practice is introduced in our Foundations to Power Vinyasa Yoga Weekend Immersion.

This series is an ideal gift for the aspiring yogi in your life!


***This Intro Series comes with ONE-WEEK UNLIMITED Yoga to be used within one month of completion of this series***
