In-Person Group Classes at OmBody Studio

You’ve made the decision to join a Yoga class! Now which class to choose? Often, time of day dictates our choice of a group class. Most of the classes I teach are in the morning, and if you’re working on getting into a daily / weekly rhythm, morning practice sets a powerful tone for the day. I offer both weekday & weekend classes.

Another major factor in choosing a class is the style of yoga offered. Please note that any modern Yoga class you take (with a few exceptions like Kundalini & Yin) is a variation of “Hatha Yoga.” That said, traditional Hatha Yoga classes are unique in that classes include more than just postures.

In Himalayan Tradition Hatha Yoga classes, you will experience mindfully-sequenced asana (postures), simple and effective pranayama (breathing techniques), and a guided relaxation to close your practice. Hatha classes tend to move at a steady, intentional pace.

Hatha Yoga is well-suited for beginners because there’s more time to investigate postures and dial in breathing techniques. That said, Hatha is also perfect for more advanced students — holding postures longer and/or practicing various breathing techniques are incredible ways to build strength and focus.

Two more points about my classes: First, I incorporate modern functional movement into classes. Our modern lives require additional, unique movements to counteract the repetitive ways we move (or more likely DON’T move) our bodies. Second, we make generous use of props and variations of postures/techniques. Props like blocks, blankets and bolsters offer support in a posture OR make it more challenging! Each body is unique, and our bodies change daily — I offer lots of variations so you can explore what works for you!

If you’re looking for a well-rounded, intelligently-sequenced movement science that attends to your body, breath AND mind, then Hatha Yoga is for you!
