but that's not all........

Becoming more advanced in your yoga practice means holding poses longer while working with more subtle energies such as activating the bandhas and controlling the quality of your breath.

Becoming a more advanced yogi also means practicing pranayama,meditation and mantra.

These classes help us cultivate awareness in our practice so that we can learn how to adjust ourselves and relax into each pose.

ANUSARA Developed by John Friend, Anusara Yoga is a powerful Hatha Yoga system that unifies a Tantric philosophy of intrinsic goodness with universal principles of alignment.

Utilizing asanas (body postures), mudras (hand positions), pranayama (breathing techniques) and meditation, the practice of Kundalini Yoga balances the glandular system, strengthens the nervous system, and enables us to harness the energy of the mind and the emotions, so we can be in control of ourselves, rather than being controlled by our thoughts and feelings. This is yoga for everyday life, and every person. You are not required to be in perfect physical shape or believe anything in particular. Kundalini Yoga works for you if you can breathe and move your body. The gift of Kundalini Yoga is that you experience it. No words can replace that experience. Your experience goes right to your heart, your core. These ancient teachings are designed to give you “hands on” experience of your highest consciousness. By approaching Kundalini Yoga with openness and respect, you can change your life.

Prenatal Yoga is a safe and gentle class for women to attend throughout their pregnancy. Women will learn specific yoga poses, breathing exercises, and relaxation techniques designed to relieve the physical and emotional discomforts that occur during pregnancy, and to prepare them, body, mind, and spirit, to give birth.
Prenatal Yoga will benefit you through all stages of your pregnancy. If you currently have a regular yoga practice, you can feel free to continue that practice until your second trimester.

(This class is great if you have trouble with meditation and especially if you are experiencing stress and anxiety.) Pranayama is yoga for all level students. Learn how to control your breath and Prana (life giving energy) through simple and pleasant breathing and sound exercises. Energize your body, calm your mind, and free yourself from mental imbalances that give rise to negativity like anger or even physical ailments. Deep relaxation techniques in this class help you release accumulated stress.

Developed by B.K.S. Iyengar For all level students. Iyengar Yoga is a therapeutic style of yoga. Meticulous study helps us derive the maximum benefits of each asana by focusing on correct alignment. This style of yoga also introduces the student to the use of yoga props such as blankets, blocks, straps, bolsters, and chairs and how these props can be tremendously beneficial to our practice. These classes are highly recommended for any students who suffer from any physical ailments whatsoever.

Basic Level 1

Basic Level 1 classes are for students who are new to yoga or students who have not been consistent in their practice.

This is the class where we set our intentions and establish a solid foundation for our practice.
We work on building strength, flexibility and learning how to coordinate breath with movement.

We remind our teachers to give their students a balance of personal attention and space, allowing them to develop their own relationship to the practice.
All classes consist of flowing vinyasa sequences as well mediation, pranayama(yogic breathing)and relaxation.

GUIDED MEDITATION For all level students. Learn and practice ancient techniques to quiet your mind and focus within. Meditation is the path towards higher goals in life. By its regular practice you can soon achieve peace, serenity, and a blissful state of harmony.

Kids Yoga- Prana Yoga offers Yoga for kids ages 4-9. Kids will enjoy discovering the way their bodies move and function through animal imagery and animal sounds in the poses as well as playing games in a non-competitive environment.

More challenging than the Open level, Intermediate classes are for experienced students that have a regular yoga practice.

Our Organization for the month of July: Hope For Vision


Hope For Vision is an organization dedicated to raising awareness of retinal degenerative and other blinding diseases, to providing information and community tools to help those coping with vision loss, and to developing the tools required to support a grassroots movement to raise urgently needed funding for scientific research.
Tens of millions of Americans lose vision every day, facing ultimate blindness. They are our friends, relatives, neighbors and colleagues.
Hope For Vision springs from the breathtaking scientific progress that has brought cures and treatments in sight.
In recent years, scientists have employed genetic treatments to restore full vision to blind dogs, have given vision to the blind using retinal microchip technologies, have begun clinical trials on pharmaceutical treatments to combat retinal degenerative diseases, and have reached dozens of other heretofore unimaginable milestones.
