CLASS DESCRIPTIONS ~
YOGA/ENERGY FLOW:
A perfect blend combining the flowing style of Vinyasa yoga with the holding, alignment focused style of Iyengar yoga. Nikki provides an active class increasing heat and energy flow through breath and movement and will also get to the juiciness of the poses by increasing stamina strength and deeper flexibility; holding and exploring proper alignment and form. Props are encouraged to make the practice accessible to all. This is a mixed abilities class.
CORE:
This class combines yoga with pilates principles to create a practice that emphasizes core strength, flexibility and balance. Tap into your inner strength while creating space in the body and the mind through breath and flow of movement.
YOGA CORE FUSION:A 75 minute class geared to tap into your inner power. Muscles will work to lengthen and strengthen while the mind relaxes and the spirit restores. This class combines asanas and core exercises, encourages movement from the center as well as stabilizing from the core to empower and release from with in. Equipment such as pilates rings and stability balls are used to increase challenge.
YIN YOGA:
This restorative and relaxing class is the perfect compliment to the more muscular and dynamic (yang) styles of yoga.Yin yoga uses long holds of supported postures to release fascia. Fascia is connective tissue that holds us together, surrounding muscles, attaching muscles to bones and bones to bones. This practice is very grounding and meditative.
