Rocket Yoga
Rocket Yoga was founded by the late Larry Schultz as a way to make Ashtanga accessible to the west. He created the 3 beloved Rocket sequences we know today while on tour with the Grateful Dead. Bob Weir coined it the Rocket because "it gets you there faster" We practice Rocket in three set sequences that begin to become fluid with practice. Practicing in set sequences allows you to uncover a depth of practice.  Rocket is a fun and creative branch of Ashtanga Yoga. 
  • Rocket 1 is based in primary series Ashtanga and focuses on forward folds.
  • Rocket 2, is based in secondary series Ashtanga with a focus on back bending.
  • Rocket 3 is a combination of one and two.
 Each class contains the opportunity for flight with inversions and arm balances. We often include mini in class workshops to help you in these poses. Rocket is a system of Progressive Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga, Like Ashtanga we focus on Tristana (our continuous focus on our breath, bandhas, and drishti,)
We offer both 60 and 90 minute Rocket classes. 

 Ashtanga Vinaysa 
Ashtanga Yoga is a system of 6 set series, each progressing upon the previous. Ashtanga is the mother of all flow styles seen today. It is known as the 8 limb path of yoga. 

Beginning with Primary series, known as yoga chikitsa, or yoga therapy. When we develop a consistent practice in Ashtanga we begin to purify the body, organs and lymphatic system. We build strength, increase flexibility and range of motion by focusing on deep forward folds and hip openers.
Mysore Ashtanga
Join for our Mysore mornings! This is the traditional way to learn the Ashtanga System, named after Mysore India, where the practice originated. Students receive one on one instruction within the group. Arrive anytime with opening chant at 6:00 am. This class is not LED by an instructor which allows your instructors to help each student. 
Open Practice
Inspired by Mysore Style practice, this studio space is open for you to come in and do YOUR practice! Anything you want it be on a given day. An instructor is present to answer any questions, assist you and support you in your practice. 
Beginners Rocket and Ashtanga 
These classes are shortened, modified versions of Rocket 1 and 2 as well as Primary Series Ashtanga. These shortened set sequences allow more time for alignment and instruction in poses, how to practice with our breath, beginning to progress your practice. These classes are more therapeutic in nature and are perfect for beginners, practitioners coming from different styles like Power or Vinyasa or Rocket/Ashtanga students that want a shorter practice. 
Inversions, Arm Balance Play and Yoga For Strength and Conditioning
These one hour classes focus on building strength to achieve inversions and hold arm balances comfortably. We will focus on core strength and specific drills for each posture. As well as variations, transitions and safety. More workshop style, these classes are interactive and will help any practitioner progress in their practice.

 Vinyasa Yoga 
Modern Vinyasa Flow is also born out of the Ashtanga Vinyasa System.
Vinyasa sequences are crafted with care by teachers using intelligent sequencing. Each class is unique and specific the individual teacher. 
Vinyasa means, to place in a special way and like Ashtanga, Rocket and Power yoga, Vinyasa links breath to movement. To take a vinyasa class means you will link poses with a vinyasa, which is moving through chaturanga (low push up) up dog and down dog, creating a class that moves, breathes and flows. ​

        Restorative, Pranayama and Mediation 
This class moves through a restorative flow to rejuvenate and relax the body, followed by breathing practices and meditation to calm the nervous system and quiet the mind. This class ends with relaxing sound bows. 
Pranayama
Pranayama- Breath Work
This class is all about breathing exercises that will destress, relax and energize you to the highest potential. Pranayama has the power to stimulate every cell of your body, which provides unlimited physical, mental and spiritual benefits. After Pranayama practice we will end the class with a short meditation to help us dive deep into ourselves and walk the steps towards Self-Realization.
