| Yoga Vinyasa |

Medium to higher intensity class, but is very accessible to all levels. Vinyasa Yoga is inspired by Ashtanga Yoga and seeks to connect movement and breath making it a very active practice by flowing from pose to pose at a quicker pace. This Vinyasa flow creates a great cardio, strength, and mobility based practice to promote wellbeing: mind, body and soul. |
