Yin Yoga
Much of the stress, injury, and strain we experience physically comes from the the immense energy we expend resisting gravity, and propelling ourselves through it. Yin yoga seeks deep relaxation by releasing muscles and connective tissue into gravity in proper alignment, through supported poses. When our bodies are supported through props and poses, it is able to let go of holding patterns, decompress, and begin the process of healing and realigning bones and muscles. Not only is this class wonderfully relaxing and restorative, it is a must for active and athletic people, to bring balance and ease of movement into the body.
Core Yoga
This is a Forrest Yoga-inspired practice designed to strengthen and connect you to your “center”, physically, mentally and emotionally.

You will practice relaxing your neck, spinal mobility, invigorating abdominal exercises, and some standing yoga poses to incorporate moving from center. This class is suitable for all levels and will always offer modifications for injuries and varying abilities.
