Om Shala Yoga

Tune into the power of yoga to nourish the full spectrum of your mind, body, and spiritual wellness. The class will begin with breath, core work, and a slow flow moving toward peak poses and challenging sequences. At the wall inversions are often included in class with appropriate social distancing. This class is level 1-2, designed for students who are familiar with most yoga poses and transitions (advanced beginner to intermediate practitioner). Join the class in-person, v...irtually, or register in advance and watch the class recording at your convenience. Fridays, 9:30-10:45am In-person and via Zoom

There’s something magical about a Mysore room! While led Ashtanga classes are amazing for generating purifying internal heat and building strength/stamina relatively quickly, Mysore Ashtanga classes are better for taking the time to explore more deeply into the biomechanics of the poses themselves while flowing through the practice at your own pace, with the watchful assistance of the instructor when needed or requested.
