Yoga is a physical
practice. If you are new to yoga or this type of
exercise it is
recommended that you
participate is a "Gentle Yoga," "Yoga Basics,"
or "Healthy Backs Flow," before moving on the
other classes. Remember that yoga
is a personal journey and is not
competitive.
Gentle Yoga
Explores gentle movements to increase
flexibility, strength and well-being. Students
are led through stretches, yoga postures and
breathing practices, then guided into deep
relaxation.
Ideal for beginners, those with chronic
pain or stress, those returning from illness or
injury, or anyone who would like a gentle
approach to practicing
yoga.
Yoga Basics
A great class
for those new to yoga. Poses, breathing and
relaxation will all be covered in
detail.
A strong foundation is very
important to a successful yoga practice. This
class is also beneficial to intermediate and
advanced students. Returning to the basics and
refocusing on breath, lines of muscular energy
and stillness will make your advanced practice
stronger.
Healthy Backs Flow
A complete flow for
the whole body with extra
focus given to
tight and restricted muscles and joints of the
back.
Great for the beginner who is looking for a dynamic practice.
Vinyasa
Flow
Vinyasa Flow is a dynamic
class which matches breath with movement and
strength postures.
A tenacious work out
designed to challenge the body and the
mind.
Yoga Lila
Jivamukti Certified Teacher Mary Farell leads students in a playful workshop. Lila in Sanskrit means "Play." The class explores different themes and is a challenging Asana Practice. Come out to yoga Lila and experience a new edge in your practice.
Fusion
Eastside's signature power class. Both playful and powerful - a tenacious class with extra attention to the core.
All Levels
A flow class suitable for
beginners, intermediate and advanced yoga
students.
Follow the Yogini
A Vinyasa Flow class that will be powerful, fun, dynamic and restorative.
Practicing together, while experiencing the fun and delight of yoga and the fulfillment of giving.
This class is a chance for you to create some heat, connect to your spirit and flow to your own rhythm while creating a community of synchronized movement and breath. Minimal cuing and no assists.
Individuals must have prior yoga experience.
Yoga at the wall
A fun and unstructured class that uses the wall to
support you in your yoga asanas. Utilizing the wall
reinforces alignment. If you are looking for something fun and different to
break up your routine....try this class.
Slow Flow
Especially good for those who would
like a refresher on the basic balance between
effort, ease and surrender. This class
will move slower yet stronger to build
strong foundations to further the practice.
Slow flow
centers on the mind/body connection, emphasizing alignment principles
while exploring basic postures. More advanced
poses, breathing (pranayama) techniques, and relaxation skills will also be
explored.
Yin Yoga
Yin yoga is a form of yoga which is performed to stretch the connective tissues of the body.
Primary connective tissues include the hips, thighs and lower spinal area.
These types of tissues do not stretch the muscles (as in the yang form of yoga) but they stretch and exercise the bone and joints areas of the body.
This type of asana practice is beneficial to a wide variety of people.
Yin yoga is a perfect match for yang yoga, and provides a deeper stretch. Although yin yoga is not as intense as other yang forms of yoga, its long duration can be difficult to maintain.
Mind/Body Yoga
A gentler class focusing on the fundamentals of yoga and calming the mind with meditation.
