Postnatal Yoga
Join me, mother of two boys, for Postnatal Yoga.

It is recommended that mom receives clearance from her doctor and that all post-birth bleeding has ceased. It is also encouraged that mothers wait four to six weeks after vaginal delivery and eight to 12 weeks post-cesarean to attend. Women up to two years postpartum are welcome to join.

Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series
Ashtanga is a system of yoga transmitted to the Western world by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois of India. This method of yoga involves synchronizing the breath with a progressive, fixed series of postures—a process producing intense internal heat and a purifying sweat that detoxifies muscles and organs. We will focus on the Primary Series, which links standing, seated and inverted postures with a flowing vinyasa, challenging you to maintain ujjayi breath, energy locks and a soft gaze throughout the dynamic practice. This vigorous, athletic class is open to all levels - intermediate students will be challenged to discover their growing edge while beginners will learn foundational asanas and a traditional practice.
