Vinyasa Yoga is a "flow-style" where we move from one pose to another fluidly, while linking breathing with movements. Typically, classes begin with building heat in the body through vinyasa sequences and then dissolve into deeper relaxing stretches. This style of yoga allows the body to open up and release tensions, while increasing flexibility and promoting strength, balance and increased energy levels. You are always encouraged to go at your own pace, and inspired to new levels when you are ready.
Yin Yang Yoga is a style of hatha yoga with an emphasis on balance, including the balance between quiet flexibility (Yin) with active strengthening (Yang). Promotes well being, strength, flexibility and relaxation.
