Vinyasa Class: Weds., 3/3 - 4/7; 6-7:15pm with Jenn

Explore the power of flow through the dynamic practice of Vinyasa, a fluid movement of yoga poses synchronized with the breath. Dive deeper into the practice of sun salutations, refining alignment and energetic awareness. Attention and focus on breath awareness will increase power, strength, and endurance while building heat to detox and increase the purifying effect of the practice.
This is a more vigorous approach to yoga, therefore some yoga experience is recommended.
