Level 1 is for beginning & continuing students. It introduces fundamental principles of alignment and breath work, and covers primary poses and yoga basics. It places emphasis on the standing poses, and on stretching and strengthening the legs, back and shoulders. This class can be helpful for anyone with back, neck, knee or shoulder difficulties.

Level 1-2 is is for continuing students who have completed Level I. The emphasis is on building endurance and introducing Level II standing poses. This class is also suitable for students who have practiced other styles of yoga besides the Anusara method, but is not suitable for those who have never studied yoga before.

Level 2 is for continuing students who have completed at least two Yoga 1 sessions. Level 2 introduces a more advanced form of Sun Salutation and focuses on refining the standing poses. It also introduces revolving poses, basic sitting poses, back-bending poses, and shoulder stand using Anusara Yoga principles of alignment. We focus on upper body alignment and strengthening, in preparation for inversions. This class also introduces ½ handstand and ½ forearm stand.

Level 3 is for continuing students who have completed at least 3 sessions of Level 2, and who have the instructor's permission. Level 3 focuses on refining poses studied in Level 1 & 2 and introduces handstand and forearm stand at the wall. More vigorous Vinyasa (yoga flows) flows are introduced along with more revolving poses.

Reasonably fit men tend to be stronger than women, but significantly less flexible. Deep stretches to large muscle groups are easiest once the body is well warmed-up, especially in Fall and Winter. We will learn vigorous yoga flows with which to begin each class. We will explore many of the same poses covered in Level 1 and 1-2 classes, and will also explore yogic breathing and relaxation techniques.

Gentle Yoga combines warm-ups, gentle and restorative postures, emphasis on alignment, deep breathing techniques, and guided deep relaxation to reduce stress and increase movement and vitality. Perfect for students who prefer a class less vigorous than Yoga I, Gentle Yoga is also ideal for students experiencing illness, injury, or chronic pain and who need more individual attention. This class can be helpful for students with back, neck, knee or shoulder difficulties.

This class is for women who are at least 12 weeks pregnant. Dads-to-be are also welcome to attend. The class focuses on modified poses to stretch and strengthen the changing body of the pregnant student. Emphasis is given to alignment, postural detail and relaxation. It is appropriate for both new and continuing yoga students. Please provide written permission to attend the class from your midwife or doctor prior to the first class.
