Props: A bath towel or blanket and you, ready to have some fun!

Slow Flow yoga takes a page from another popular yoga style called Vinyasa, which means in Sanskrit “to place in a special way”.

This style of yoga helps build strength and increase flexibility and overall endurance.

Yoga: Accessible Chair Yoga | Quinn | 60 mins
In this accessible yoga class, you use a chair throughout practice to help support your body in the poses and feel the yoga shapes in new ways. We practice seated in the chair, standing, balancing, and seated on the floor.

The second half of class we wind down with floor postures to settle the mind for a 10 minute legs-up-the-chair savasana with guided relaxation.
There are lots of options given throughout class. Remember – advancing your yoga practice means fine-tuning your practice for your body in the moment, not achieving any certain “look” in the poses. You’re welcome to experiment as much or as little as you like, and always take pauses when you feel you’d like to.
Props: 1 sticky mat, 1 chair without wheels and preferably without arms, 1 blanket, 1 yoga block or 2 hardback books (optional – if you have tight hamstrings you may need them!)

Yoga Basics
Yoga Foundations: Starting From Scratch | Kasey | 60 mins
Starting something new – that feeling of a clean slate, a blank page – can feel refreshing. It could also feel totally daunting.

Props: 2 blocks, blanket, wall space, strap (optional)

Yoga Basics: Working with Habit | Kasey | 60 mins
We all have habits, but rather than deeming them “good” or “bad”, it can be helpful to view them for what they truly are — actions we repeat due to our mental/emotional conditioning.
