This class will begin with some gentle movements to help restore fluidity to muscles, tissues and joints then move to holding restorative postures to help release and move the body into a resting state.The aim is to not only stretch out the muscles but to go deeper, softening and stretching the body’s connective tissue to promote recovery and prevent injury. Props will be used to support the body, allowing your muscles to fully relax and open.

Program concentration:

• Increased flexibility.
• Increased circulation.

In this class you will spend most of the class lying down or seated. There will be a variety of props used to fully support you as you hold poses anywhere from 3-5 minutes each. Poses are chosen not on the basis of their challenge level but on how much they will help you relax and tune into your breath and will not require strain or exertion. Come to class prepared to relax, de-stress and go inward!

Program concentration:

• Calm the mind.
• Increased blood flow to internal organs.
• Improved immune system function.

A slightly more active restorative class, dynamic movement will be combined with restorative postures.

Emphasis will be placed on connecting breath with movement as well as using the breath as a tool to fully relax and settle into stillness.
