Classes offered:
All Levels Flow: Our signature mixed-levels vinyasa class moves in a continuous flow with a focus on improving balance, alignment and posture. Appropriate for beginners as well as more advanced students, this dynamic class combines breath work, movement, and deep holds while in postures. All Levels Flow classes will enhance flexibility, as well as tone the whole body and build core strength. You will leave feeling rejuvenated and energized, with an overall sense of well-being.
Evening Flow: This evening practice is similar to Breathe Joy Flow and will include postures appropriate for all levels. Vinyasa means to flow and postures are linked together by the breath, creating strength in the mind and body. Melt away years of stress and cleanse your body of toxins. Relax into the evening!
Energy Yoga/Sunday Salutations: This all levels vinyasa flow class will include sun salutations, as well as standing and seated postures. Emphasizing healthy alignment and toning of the body, the class will work on strengthening and stretching muscles, while calming the mind. You will leave feeling rejuvenated and relaxed -- mind, body & spirit.
Lunar Yoga: This Tuesday evening class includes Moon Salutations, a set series of postures linked together to create a soothing energy. Lunar Yoga will tone and strengthen all of the major muscle groups and students will leave feeling deeply relaxed.
Karma Yoga: These classes are taught by student teachers and recent graduates of Breathe Joy Yoga's teacher training program. It's our way of giving back to the community that supports us. The cost is $7/cash only or 1 class card stamp. Both classes are accessible to all. A portion of class proceeds will be donated to School on Wheels.
Gentle Integral: In this new class (taught Wednesdays at 6 pm), we will start with centering and breathing techniques and then move on to work on yoga asanas. Borrowing from the Iyengar tradition, postures are broken down and taught with a lot of instruction, focusing on alignment, precision, and form. Classes incorporate mindfulness and a bit of yoga philosophy as well -- a great option for those recovering from illness or injury or simply those seeking a more gentle practice. Come find your center!
Zumba: Ditch the workout and join the party! Let's face it: working out can be lots of things, but it's not fun....UNTIL NOW! Zumba fuses hypnotic musical rhythms and tantalizing moves to create a dynamic workout system designed to be fun and EASY TO DO!
The following classes are offered at various times throughout the year:
Yoga Core Energy Flow: Designed to lift your energy, this vinyasa flow class for mixed-levels will combine traditional yoga asanas with core postures to tone and stretch major muscle groups, strengthen the core, generate internal heat, and lead to a sense of balance and inner peace.
Shakti: A free-flowing, fun and easy movement class where you will burn calories and have a blast! No dance experience necessary as this drop-in class is for EVERYONE. Shakti=divine, feminine energy. Come Shake your Shakti with us!
Continuing Vinyasa: Breathe Joy Flow Level 2 is a stepped-up vinyasa flow class. This vigorous, flowing yoga class is most appropriate for those with yoga experience (we recommend taking at least 10 Breathe Joy Flow or Vinyasa Flow classes here or elsewhere) or those with a regular exercise routine who are seeking to deepen their yoga practice. Students will work on linking the breath to movement for a transformational and balancing effect. We will also work on pranayama and delve deeper into bringing yoga off the mat and into the world. This class is dynamic, energetic, and powerful. (Students attending this class should not have major injuries).
Yoga for Strength: Yoga for Strength is a workout that integrates light hand weights and pilates into our yoga flow. The focus will be on core strengthening and muscle conditioning. Light hand weights will be used to isolate and tone upper body muscles while holding yoga poses. This class is designed to create an optimum workout while staying focused on a traditional yoga practice and tuning into the body/mind/spirit experience.
Beach Body Go-Ga: Join us for this new class for all levels at BJY and get into shape for summer! We start at the studio with centering and Sun Salutations, grab handweights (or not!) and get outside in nature.....we power walk to a beautiful spot on the lake, do a standing practice, power walk back and finish with seated postures and savasana! What could be better? Join us on Wednesdays and mindfully peel off the pounds for summer! Let's Go-Ga!
