Kundalini Yoga is a practice of innovative yoga techniques that prompts increased blood flow and healing energy to address a wide range of issues and challenges. While many of the same elements are combined, each class focuses on a specific healing technology to induce profound emotional and physical changes that produce particular results – such as increased immunity, mental clarity, or harmony. For this reason, each class is totally unique.

Come to this class not only to learn the postures, but to also gain a greater understanding of the body and mind.

In this class, we will explore various aspects of the asanas (postures) and learn how to find the optimal alignment for individual bodies. Each body has restrictions (whether they be physical, mental or emotional) that can present themselves in many ways. The intention behind this class is for the student to begin to understand the posture more deeply, not only in its form and structure, but how it applies to their body specifically. It is through this understanding that the student can discover how to navigate the pose to effectively open the body on both the physical and energetic (pranic) levels.

Where Shavasana ends Yoga Nidra begins…The literal translation of Yoga Nidra is Yogic Sleep. It is an ancient form of meditation that will take you into the deepest levels of relaxation while still remaining fully aware. As you progressively enter into deeper levels of yoga nidra you become more relaxed, integrated, expansive and present which will be taken into your everyday life.
