Which class is for me?
Yoga is not about levels or rating your practice, but about joining with your own effort and being. Our classes do vary in pace, intensity and heat so variations in all of our classes are demonstrated for beginners and experienced students. You are encouraged to listen to your body and adjust to your needs on any given day. On some days you may feel the need to take it slower and rest more during your practice. On others you may feel the desire to work to your edge with more intensity.

I have never done yoga before!
It is recommended that you begin with a yoga private, or a Yoga Basics Series. Our lower intensity classes are suggested until you are more familiar with the flow yoga series. Please contact us if you are unsure of which class to start with.
