About Vinyasa Yoga |

Yoga for AthletesTightness due to athletic training may be a result of repetitive work on muscles that become stronger, thicker but also shorter. The practice will strengthen and lengthen those muscles and in increasing strength and flexibility; enhance performance and reduce the chance of injury. This sequence will reveal imbalances in your body and help to strengthen those less developed areas. The intense but safe hip and shoulder openers facilitate release and support a full range of motion that is unrestricted by tightness. Accuracy is increased as movement becomes more fluid and predictable. Balance in the stance is also improved as body, breath and mental awareness is fine tuned through regular practice. | Power Vinyasa YogaVinyasa Yoga is made accessible to a beginner and challenging to an advanced student. Each pose can be adapted not only to a person’s physical ability – flexibility, strength and injury history but also to their state of mind. Power is defined as the “ability to be and to let be.” Based on intuition rather than tradition, Power Vinyasa Yoga is a dynamic process that is open to anyone who commits to true and lasting transformation. The flow is about 90 minutes and consists of warming up with a combination of flowing basic Yoga poses and holdings of key postures. Ujjayi breath warms the body from the inside out. It is a breathing practice that creates a soothing, rhythmic breath that anchors you to the present moment. It links the mind and body, one movement to the next, cultivating a meditation in motion. This combination of breath and motion builds internal “healing heat”. The practice shifts to yoga poses that open major muscle groups including standing poses, balancing series, backbends, core abdominal work, inversion, forward bends, twists and hip openers. |
Frequently Asked Questions |

What is Yoga?Neither a religion nor a series of exercises, hatha yoga is similar to other body-centred practices that originated in Asia. It is an ancient holistic approach to health and self-development that begins with the human body as a way to affect our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual being. With the physical practice, breathing and meditation we learn to calm the thoughts of the mind. We awaken and discover the luminous intuition that lies within all of us to create true health, happiness and peace. Hydrate: If you are planning to come to class, drink a lot of water during the day. Have at least 500ml of water within two hours prior to class. Have fluids if needed during class and hydrate yourself well after class. Rest: If you feel weak, dizzy or nauseous – rest. Lie down until you feel you are able to participate again. Be aware that when you start a yoga practice, forward and backward bending movements can add to the feeling of nausea and dizziness. | "BUT I’m really tight and not flexible!"All of the poses are accessible to the beginner. All students take a rest when they need to. Come with a flexible mind! You don't need to be physically flexible. All you need is to start with where you are today, focus on letting go, sweat, breath, move, and respect your limitations. For a slower pace with more attention given to alignment, classes designated for beginners may suit you. The Basics class has the same standard flow as the open class but gives particular emphasis to the foundational postures, deepening the student's knowledge of alignment, physical condition, and spirit. "If you truly believe in the presence within you, the love in your heart will guide you and you'll naturally flow from your inner light. Just show up, shine and be yourself." – Baron Baptiste What are the benefits?In Power yoga, you will develop a strong upper and lower body and a powerful core through the vinyasa and repetitive movement that strengthens and tones the arms, shoulders, spine and mid-section. In a Power yoga class your body goes through all possible ranges of movement. In general, hatha yoga poses have internal benefits that affect body organs and systems. Yoga is fantastic for developing a healthy, toned body and a calm clear mind. |
