In this fiery class, we'll link movement and breath in a series of postures that flow into each other.  This class is taught at a level 2 and is designed for people who have practiced yoga before.  Postures can always be modified to fit your experience level.  Warmup practices will be used to heat your body from the inside, as the room is not heated beyond a normal room temperature.  This will allow for greater understanding of your body's limitations and growth potential.  We will also explore other yogic techniques such as mantra, mudra, breath work and meditation to enhance and deepen your experience.

Whether you are new to yoga or a seasoned practitioner, this class focuses on self-awareness and self-care.  You’ll be encouraged to honor your own level of flexibility, whatever that may be.  From that point, the body and mind will be guided to gently stretch and explore. The ultimate aim of this class is to build flexibility, strength and a supportive, calming environment for body and mind.  This is an appropriate class for all levels.

This class is very similar to the Tuesday class (see description above) and will be taught each week with a slightly different theme (or sometimes a deeper exploration of the theme) from the Tuesday class.  Many students attend both classes, but these classes can also be attended as one-offs.  The Thursday class usually has 1 or 2 extra reclining postures using a bolster (provided) for a supported relaxation pose.

This is a very gentle stretch class that focuses on using yoga postures to build flexibility.  The Gentle Stretch class creates a calming environment for body and mind.  This is an appropriate class for all levels.

This class teaches various relaxation techniques to help restore energy and focus.  This class can be taught using chairs or using the more traditional yoga approach of reclining on the floor.  It includes a practice called Yoga Nidra (or Yoga “sleep”), which is a method of deep, systematic relaxation that reduces stress and creates a revitalized state of being.

This is a physical yoga class that focuses on alignment, strength and flexibility.  Clients will be shown many of the basic yoga postures and different variations based on level.  Classes can be beginner, intermediate or advanced and can also be modified to fit all levels.  In an all-level class, care is taken to offer many modifications to each posture so that clients can work at their own individual pace.  Classes can range in duration from 30-minute; 60-minute; or 90-minute yoga sessions for small or large groups.

This class begins with a brief overview and discussion of various types of meditation techniques and their benefits.  From there, Amy will assess the needs of the group and teach an appropriate meditation practice.  These classes can vary in duration from 15-minute sessions to whole day events.

Office Yoga can be practiced in an office setting in business attire.  Most of the yoga postures are done seated in an office chair or standing next to the chair.  No other equiptment is needed.  This class is appropriate for all levels and the main focus is on reducing stress and increasing vitality and productivity in the work place. 

Freedom from Food – One of Amy’s most popular workshop topics, Freedom from Food, explores our personal stories with food and how to break free from the cycles (in yoga we call these “samskaras”) that keep you stuck in old patterns.  Many yoga and coaching techniques are used within the workshop to give each student an experience of freedom from old patterns that no longer work when it comes to food.

In order to have a healthy and productive work place, we want to create an environment where we feel well within ourselves and in our relationships with those with whom we work and interact.   This offering is a 90-minute part lecture/part experiential practice in which clients are given techniques to create a greater level of awareness and well-being while working in any environment.
