YOGA CLASS DESCRIPTIONS

BEAUTI F L O W YOGA

BeautiFLOW Yoga is an all-levels yoga class. The class starts slowly to help orient one to one's body, and works up to a vinyasa flow to encourage deep breathing and full expression in postures. It is within this flow that Mary encourages yogis to be truly authentic and creative within their postures and transitions, to create their own beautiFLOW. Sun salutations and balancing poses are no stranger to this class, allowing us to help us fan that internal fire and cultivate a rejuvenating somatic release.

BREATHE HERE NOW: A BREATH WORK JOURNEY

This is a powerful Breathwork class ~ a mind, body, and soul activation. This class will take you through a journey beyond the limitations of your Self and awaken you to your Divine Essence. You will be safely guided to breathe through suppressed emotions, limiting beliefs, stressors, and energetic blockages that prevent you from showing up fully in the world. You’ll feel grounded, deeply connected, and liberated when completed. If you find it difficult to find stillness in meditation, this technique will help you reach a state of bliss...and so much more, from the power of your own breath.

BHAKTI-BASED HATHA YOGA

Yoga of Devotion (Wednesdays)

Yoga of devotion is a bhakti-based hatha yoga practice. This class utilizes movement, mantra meditation and sound healing to cultivate Soul-to-Source awareness and consciousness. Bhakti yoga is the path of devotion. In this class devotion is enacted and experienced through movement of the body beyond surface physical fitness. The movement draws from the Hatha yoga tradition. When the intention and consciousness during movement is focused on Source, movement becomes a way to help focus the mind and the health benefits is a natural byproduct of the movement. Nevertheless, the movement helps to release stress, build strength and flexibility etc., and all the benefits that come with consistent asana practice. The sequence of movement isn't strict or rigid. It is collaborative in that you could follow the sequence as laid out by the teacher or you can add or subtract what you need to in order to make it unique to your body. You could sit in meditation or rest in savasana part of or the whole entire time. In this class you are encouraged to trust your intuition and knowledge of your body and do the movement  and poses that you feel you need. It takes us back to the original purpose of asana practice so that one can sit in meditation. In this class the focus of meditation is Divinity in the name and form that one personally resonates with and not one specific Source. Everyone is encouraged to invoke in their mind and heart their Source as they believe and experience it. The music and sound instruments (kirtan, harmonium, sound bowls, rain-stick etc..) are all used to keep the mind focused. There is much that can be said about this class, however the experience is the true testament of its uniqueness and value. Hope to see you soon.

Yoga of Gratitude (Fridays)

Yoga of devotion is a bhakti-based hatha yoga practice. The focus of this class is cultivating a deep sense of gratitude. Gratitude can have different focus for different people. You can be grateful for your breath, your heartbeat, your body systems, your bank account, your family, your Source, for nature, for the world. The practice is used to cultivate the mood, the energy, the awareness of being grateful, appreciative and thankful. Bhakti yoga is the path of devotion. Gratitude is the essence of devotion. In this class devotion is enacted and experienced through movement of the body beyond surface physical fitness. The movement draws from the Hatha yoga tradition. When the intention and consciousness during movement is focused on Source and gratitude, movement becomes a way to help focus the mind and the health benefits is a secondary byproduct of the movement. The movement draws from the Hatha yoga tradition.
