Class Descriptions

BEGINNING YOGA A sequential learning class building on poses from one week to the next. New students benefit from a more focused detailed class, continuing students can work on perfecting your basic poses and refining alignment. Incorporating the Universal Principals of Alignment and life-enhancing philosophy of Anusara yoga. Classes will teach poses from
the Anusara Level 1 syllabus.
(see www.anusara.com)

YOGA 1 Is for those students who have already attended a beginner class, or for those with some knowledge of yoga. It will focus on standing and seated poses, breathing, and relaxation. Poses will be introduced slowly, in a flow, allowing time for both body and mind integration. Good for those new to yoga, or for a refresher course to returning students.

YOGA 1-2 Focuses on refining the standing and sitting poses, back bends, and building endurance, using the Anusara Yoga principles of alignment. The fundamentals of handstands and arm balances are introduced. Students strengthen arms and shoulders as they develop techniques leading to these postures. Teaches poses from the level 1 and 2 Anusara syllabus. (see www.anusara.com)

YOGA 1.5-3 Focuses on a more advanced practice, ideally for those practicing at least one year. Poses will include arm balances, Inversions, binds & advanced seated poses. Students should be able to do handstands on the wall and backbends on their own. Teaches poses from the level 2 and 3 Anusara syllabus.

HIP OPENING CLASS is an all level class that focuses on hips, hamstrings and shoulders. Unlock your untapped potential by opening your hips. The root of many back & knee problems stems from having tight hips. Through this transormative and therapeutic practice, you will experience more freedom in the body.

VINYASA FLOW let your mind surrender to the movement of the body w/a meditative, flowing practice. This class will challenge your muscles and your mind by combining sun salutations and breath directed movement with held poses. Level 2 will include inversions and arm balances.

"NIYAMA" HOT YOGA A fun workout. This is the same sequence successfully, developed by Mac McHugh, founder of Niyama studio in Wilmette, IL. We make the room hot, so you can get rid of any toxins. 55 minutes of standing poses, followed by backbending series and seated forward folds. We supply the towels.)

THE PRACTICE Led practice with Chad. Students work with Chad and each other to advance their practice. Students should be able to do a handstand on the wall, backbends on their own. Level 2: advanced, Level 3: super-advanced. Teaches poses from the level 3 Anusara syllabus.
