ABOUT VINYASA FLOW YOGA

Vinyasa Yoga, also called Flow Yoga, is an upbeat and creative form of yoga where breath and yoga postures flow together to create a dynamic yoga class. It is a moving meditation that also builds strength and flexibility.  

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

These beginner yoga workshops are suitable for those completely new to yoga, or those students looking to deepen their practice. Learn to connect flowing postures together with breath and proper alignment techniques for each pose, so you'll feel confident when you go to group yoga classes.  Absolute beginners are welcome and no experience is necessary.
