Sankalpah Yoga


Descriptions

Our SANKALPAH FOUNDATION CLASS will move more slowly and lay the groundwork for your asana practice with a great deal of attention to alignment. This class will prepare you and give you knowledge of how to work in the more “familiar” asanas so that eventually you can bring this awareness to the more “advanced” asanas. This class is appropriate for those just beginning their yoga practice and also for students who wish to refine their existing practice.

Our SANKALPAH OPEN CLASS is just that, open to all. While designed for experienced yoga students, we have chosen not to use “levels” because we feel that we are all beginners in some aspect of our practice and advanced in other areas. The Progressive Vinyasa method of sequencing we use at Sankalpah Yoga enables us to take a varied group of students to their own personal edge in their practice without holding anyone back. (It is recommended that students have at least 6 months of asana practice before attending an OPEN class)

Our SANKALPAH QUICK FIX is an Sankalpah Open level class condensed into an hour format for those students who want to get there practice in but have a limited amount of time!

Our RESTORATIVE CLASS combines the benefits of asana work supported with blankets, blocks and other props with gentle PRANAYAMA PRACTICES, breathing exercises. The result is a blissful meditative experience.

Our YIN YOGA CLASS is a method of yoga that incorporates long held more passive postures, meant to nourish the body by stimulating chi flow to joints and connective tissue, blending it with pranayama and Chinese meridian theory. It is a beautiful practice that assists in bringing awareness more internally so that the body and mind can be more open and receptive, thus allowing for a more peaceful and balanced way of being. The yin practice integrates the physical, emotional and psychological aspects of the self in a subtle, encouraging and nourishing manner.
