CLASS DESCRIPTIONS

Classic Hatha Yoga
Classic Hatha Yoga is a traditional approach to the practice of yoga asanas. Along with deep deliberate abdominal breathing, asanas or postures are the basis of a hatha yoga practice. Each pose in itself is a study; bringing the practitioner present in body awareness, specifically creating more opening into deeper and stronger poses through alignment principles, breathing practices and repetition. The practice of yoga asanas is a continual unfolding experience; as the body shifts and changes, along with breathing, clearer focus, strength and intent brings greater alignment, form and balance. Poses are placed together in a variety of sequences, designed for specific purposes of opening varies parts of the body. As physical and emotional tensions are released and inner focus developed, freedom from stress and worry is attained and organic states of peacefulness and calm are realized. All classes unfold in this manner, leaving one stimulated, open and consciously aware of inner peace and quiet connection. Classic Hatha Yoga is practiced by continuing students as well as those new to yoga.Hatha Yoga – Anusara
Anusara yoga, developed by John Friend, is an evolving practice rooted in the life affirming philosophy of Tantra. Blending powerful alignment principles with the qualities of the heart, Anusara yoga celebrates the gift of life. Playful and challenging classes help you to find your own creative, artistic expression as you practice. Building a strong foundation for ultimate freedom, Anusara classes can help take your practice to new levels!Ashtanga Based Yoga
The Ashtanga Yoga based classes taught at LYC are based on the teachings of K. Pattabhi Jois, who has taught this form of yoga for decades, and was instrumental in bringing it to the USA. Traditionally, Ashtanga Yoga is taught in series, the most commonly practiced being the Primary and Secondary Series. Usually it takes two hours to practice a series, which is a set of asanas (postures) that are strung together in a specific sequence and flow pattern. They begin with sun salutations, followed by a series of standing postures, then a series of postures on the floor, followed by a relaxation at the end (savasana). The poses are practiced in a heated room (about 85 degrees Fahrenheit), are vigorous, and promote heat in the body which creates more flexibility and cleansing. This practice is quite vigorous, and should only be attempted by continuing students or people who are already in good shape.
(To find this class, please look for the Vinyasa Flow classes on our schedule.)Vinyasa Flow Yoga
Vinyasa flow is a vigorous style of yoga in which asanas are sequenced together without interruptions. This type of practice builds internal heat, which helps to open up the body and breath, to make it more flexible and deepen your practice. It is intended for students who are already familiar with most of the asanas and alignment principles, and who wish to build stamina and endurance with their yoga practice.Asana, Pranayama & Meditation
This class includes one hour vigorous vinyasa flow, followed by pranayama and meditation.
The asana and pranayama (controlled breathing) prepares your body and mind for a
wonderful meditation.Prenatal Yoga Class
A personalized class for pregnant women who are looking to prepare the body for childbirth. In this special class, the emphasis is on opening the body through basic asana that gently stretch and relax the body. No prior yoga experience.Introduction To Yoga Course
This is a six week course designed for beginners. If you think you are too inflexible, too old, too out of shape, too anything, this is perfect for you. This will be a playful six-weeks of yoga for all types of people. In this course you will learn the basics of Anusara yoga alignment covering basic standing poses, forward bends, back bends, twists, and maybe an inversion or two! The classes will be comprehensive so when you register you will register for the entire six weeks. At the end of the course you will feel comfortable going to any Level I - II class at the Center -- maybe even a level II.
Every other month a new course begins, please call for dates.
Yoga for Women (Yoginis)
Yoga is a path towards total well-being. As we move into this balance as women we open to a full power and beauty that is in each of us.
With this class, you will deepen your understanding of the physiological and psychological needs of the female body, and how to adapt your practice throughout your life.
Included in this practice is the "moon salutation".
The sun salutation is a flow of forward and backward movements that heat the body and steady the mind.
The Moon Salutation was created to balance the Sun Salutation. The moon salutation is a flow of lateral movements that cool the body and calm the mind.
