Reconnecting ourselves. Ashtanga Series by Zabrina

ॐ

All levels welcome! This class is designed to move at a much slower pace. Many of the poses are propped and held for a few minutes so that we can really “sink” into areas of tension and holding. We can move into deeper tissues such as tendons, ligaments, scar tissue and fascia. There is deep attention to the breath and exploration of how moving slowly and breathing deeply can profoundly transform the shape of the body and the mind.

Most poses are done on the floor with use of props (straps, blocks, bolsters and blankets). There are no “Sun Salutations”, very few standing poses (if any), no standing or arm balances. Inversions are cooling and most often propped. Classes can include pranayama and students get to enjoy a longer savasana.

This class is a perfect counter balance to a stronger more dynamic practice but offers more poses than a restorative class or yin class. It provides an excellent “active rest” day/practice for those students with a strong, regular vinyasa practice. It is the perfect way to wind down from a busy day or week and to start the weekend off relaxed and refreshed!

Based on the NIH Study that proved yoga can reduce back pain.

Flow is timing the movement to the breath. A fluid form of moving from one posture to the next without holding the postures for very long. Increases flexibility with grace and style. A substantial energy class commonly will start with sun salutations- sequences moving up and down from the floor to get the “tapas”-heat and “prana”energy- moving through the body. Breath and movement are patterned in a vibrant, rhythmic pattern during much of the class, which tapers to longer holding poses to enhance the deeper stretch and relaxation aspects of yoga. It is a vigorous practice for beginners as well as intermediate level students. “Vi-nyaah-sa” in Sanskrit, the sacred language used in yoga, “nyaah” means “to place” and “sa” means “in a special way”.

Yoga Flow classes connect the flow of the breath to the flow of the body. In this class there will be a strong focus on the breath, the breath moving the body, and complete mindfullness in placing the body for each pose with physically and energetically healthy alignment. These classes have an even focus on cultivating strength and flexibility and are designed to be physcally challenging, but each student is welcome and encouraged to find their own pace. Modifications and stages are offered to accomodate all -levels of practitioners.

Science has documented that both being in nature and mindfulness practices such as yoga and meditation have several health benefits. Experience some of them yourself by joining us for a gentle hatha yoga class followed by an optional mindfulness-based hike through beautiful Lyon Arboretum.

Yoga class starts promptly at 9:30 in the classroom so please come a few minutes early. Class is from 9:30-10:30 followed by a mindful hike, usually to a waterfall. During the hike we will practice mindful walking in silence and/or practice sensory awareness exercises to deepen our connection to nature.

Space can fill up, so signing up soon is recommended. To register, please call (808) 988-0456. Cost is $20.

Class typically meets on third Saturday of each month.

Bring a yoga mat and yoga clothes, and wear appropriate footwear for hiking. Optional: mosquito repellant, light rain jacket.

Previous yoga experience not necessary.

For beginners or those who wish for a slower paced hot yoga class

This class is for intermediate level yogis with an understanding of the basics of Hatha Yoga. Vinyasa is defined as the intelligent combination of movement and breath, so this flow class is taught with a strong focus on foundation and alignment as we move with the breath.

The Feldenkrais Method is expressed in two parallel forms: Awareness Through Movement® and Functional Integration®. Awareness Through Movement consists of verbally directed movement sequences presented primarily to groups. A lesson generally lasts from thirty to sixty minutes. Each lesson is usually organized around a particular function. In Awareness Through Movement lessons, people engage in precisely structured movement explorations that involve thinking, sensing, moving, and imagining. Many are based on developmental movements and ordinary functional activities. Some are based on more abstract explorations of joint, muscle, and postural relationships. The lessons consist of comfortable, easy movements that gradually evolve into movements of greater range and complexity. Awareness Through Movement lessons attempt to make one aware of his/her habitual neuromuscular patterns and rigidities and to expand options for new ways of moving while increasing sensitivity and improving efficiency. There are hundreds of Awareness Through Movement lessons contained in the Feldenkrais Method that vary, for all levels of movement ability, from simple in structure and physical demand, to more difficult lessons. A major goal of Awareness Through Movement is to learn how one’s most basic functions are organized and improve. By experiencing the details of how one performs any action, the student has the opportunity to learn how to:

attend to his/her whole self
eliminate unnecessary energy expenditure
mobilize his/her intentions into actions
learn and improve
