Suggested donation range of $5 - $15 depending on experience. This is for past Acroyoga students as well as those who are interested in something new. A fun, playful style of yoga
that combines the connection & trust of partner yoga with the excitement of inversions & small acrobatics. Think of playing airplane with your brothers & sisters when you were a kid, as well
as:

- A group circle warm up to attune to practicing with others
- Brief, effective verbal communication & synchronizing of breath with partner stretching
- Acrobatic formations in groups of three as the spotter, base & stacker
- Therapeutic Flying as the base (supporting your partner) & then the flyer (being supported)
- Thai Yoga Massage for relaxation & balanced giving & receiving

Focus is on safety & good communication throughout. No partner needed! Come alone & meet new friends, or bring a partner. The only pre-requisites are a sense of humor & a willingness to surprise yourself! RSVPs are appreciated (even if they are the day-of) but not necessary!

The Sanskrit word for meditation is dhyana, which is the state we experience when our minds are still. Meditation is a practice that involves turning our attention inside. A practice of releasing ourselves from our total absorption in the swirling world around us in order to experience who we are beyond these fluctuations of the mind & senses; sat chit ananda ~ being, consciousness & bliss. Meditation increases brain communication & function, reduces the harmful effects of stress, improves cardiovascular health, & generates greater happiness & relaxation! An all levels class, novice & experienced practitioners alike will enjoy the remembrance & celebration of the peace inside! Class begins with an asana & pranayama practice designed to prepare the body for a concluding 15-20 minute meditation. Instruction will include asana, meditation techniques, japa (mantra repetition), pranayama, as well as favorite stories & fables from Swami Muktananda, an Indian teacher in the Shambhava lineage. Chairs are always available & warmly invited to be used during meditation!

The Ashtanga form is a physical & athletic practice that follows a prescribed set of asanas linked together by breath. Each pose has a specific gaze, which focuses the eye & instills a sense of meditation. The Ashtanga series is beautifully balanced to build physical & mental strength. Focus is on sun salutations, a standing sequence, a sitting series (the primary series) & a closing practice (backbends & inversions). The Ashtanga form will prepare your legs, core & mind for whatever season & activities you would like to enjoy more. Previous experience of yoga is recommended however no prior experience of Asthanga is necessary. This class is offered occasionally as a series, a workshop, or other one-time events.

Begin your day by centering your mind and body. Flow through sun salutations and balance poses and standing poses to warm up and strengthen the body. Complete your practice with a series of backbends and inversions. Early morning yoga is a great way to center yourself, listen to your body and set an intention. Focus on how you are feeling and then respond. Typically we are stiffer in the morning and so an early morning practice teaches us the most about our bodies. This is an intermediate-level yoga class.
