POWER Yoga Series
with Jody
Power Series 1: Core strength July 9, 16, 23 5:45-6:45pm
This power vinyasa series will focus on strengthening, stretching and toning our entire core. Core strength is essential for our day to day lives. From protecting our spine and providing stability to aiding in digestion, the responsibilities of the core are plenty! In these sessions, we will target the abdominals, obliques, the lower back muscles, the pelvic floor muscles, glutes and hip flexors as we flow, beginning and ending each session with diaphragmatic breath work as well! These challenging sessions will help to tone your midsection and improve your posture, balance and coordination while building stamina and strength!
Power Series 2: Standing Balances August 6, 13, 20 5:45-6:45pm
In this energetic series, we will connect our breath with movement through a moderately paced vinyasa flow, finding stability while building strength and flexibility. We’ll focus on safe alignment, correct muscle engagement and using our breath to guide us in and out of balancing postures throughout the session. Modifications and amplifications using yoga props will be provided to meet you wherever you’re at in your practice!
Power Series 3: Arm Balances September 3, 10, 17 5:45-6:45pm
This fun and empowering series will require curiosity, courage and a playful attitude! These sessions are designed to increase strength, improve balance and enhance mental concentration. We will move through a generous warm up and vinyasa flow, stretching and engaging key muscle groups to safely and confidently prepare you for a variety of exciting arm balances. You’ll learn important alignment and muscle engagement as well as effective joint stacking to help you grow and succeed!

Fall Equinox: A Sound and Breath Restorative Yoga Journey
Welcome the energy of the Fall Equinox and embark on a 2-hour journey of reflection and release with our “Fall Equinox: A Sound and Breath Restorative Yoga Journey.” Led by the nurturing guidance of instructors Krista, Joanne and Kelly, this workshop invites you to delve into the transformative practices of restorative yoga, sound healing, and breathwork.
As the season shifts and nature prepares for rest, it is the perfect moment to release what no longer serves you and cultivate a sense of gratitude. Through a series of gentle restorative yoga poses, guided by Kelly, you will explore deep relaxation and release of tension accumulated throughout the year.
What sets this workshop apart is its focus on sound and breath. Throughout the practice, Krista will envelop you in the soothing vibrations of sound healing instruments such as singing bowls, chimes, and gentle percussion. These melodic sounds will deepen your experience, helping to quiet the mind, soothe the nervous system, and foster a profound sense of inner peace.
Breath will also play a central role, guiding you to connect with the rhythm of your breath. Joanne will expertly lead you through breathing techniques designed to ground and soothe both body and mind. Through intentional breathing practices, you will learn to release stress and emotional blockages, making space for clarity and self-discovery as you transition into the quieter months.
Whether you’re seeking to release physical tension, find tranquility within, or reconnect with your inner essence, this “Fall Equinox: A Sound and Breath Restorative Yoga Journey” offers a nurturing sanctuary for introspection and transformation. No prior experience is necessary—all levels are warmly welcomed.

Breath, Yin and Flow Series with Kelly S
This 3 week class series will alternate between Body and Soul breath work, Yin Yoga, and Yoga Flow.
Breath: Experience a deep and profound mind/body/soul journey with Body and Soul Breathwork. This unique breathwork ceremony incorporates powerful deep breathing techniques, vibrational sound, and soulful music that elevate your consciousness and create transformative experiences.
Yin: Yin is a yummy practice designed to unwind tension in the body, work into deep muscle and connective tissues, and slip into a meditative state by holding poses over a longer period of time. Time is given to move from each posture with ease and care to allow the nervous system to fully unwind. Yin postures are typically seated or reclined, and supported with a variety of props.
Flow: Also known as Vinyasa Yoga, Flow is the practice of linking breath with movement. Flowing from one pose to another can feel like a moving meditation. Each instructor brings their interpretation of flow to their class, but breath is always the common thread. Come breathe, build strength, increase flexibility, find focus, and have fun!
Date: 3 week sessions begin on Thurs., September 26.
