An artful balance of movement and stillness, this practice begins slow, deliberate focus on lengthening the body's deep connective tissue. Postures are held for several minutes to encourage release.

vinyasa / chill out
hot to warm | ideal for beginners & all levels

The beginning of this class honours the heat of the room moving vinyasa (flowing) style to begin, but as the room cools, it slows towards relaxation and more contemplative poses. It's an amzing way to honour the cycle of a busy day, to sycronize towards slowing down in the evening and aiding in a really restful sleep.
