CLASSES WE OFFER
VINYASA
This dynamic class links breath with movement and incorporates a continuous flow of postures. A vigorous style of yoga, Vinyasa will test your strength, balance and flexibility, while creating internal heat.
SLOW FLOW
Slow flow explores longer holding postures to engage the muscles and cultivate strength and flexibility. This class is designed to balance your mind and go deeper into the breath using slower, progressive posture sequences. Great for new students or experienced students who are looking to take their practice to the next level.
POWER YOGA
This popular class is based on the belief that mental and physical health are interrelated, and should be conditioned together. All of the classes at Yoga on Yamhill attempt to coordinate breathing and physical movement, improve focus and concentration, and help participants regain control of their body and mind.
HATHA
This style class helps build a strong core from which one can transition into new positions and exercises. This flow centers around control and precision, with a diversity of exercises and modifications to suit a wide range of levels from beginner to advanced. With this class, you will learn and practice the tools needed to lead a healthy and fit lifestyle, while also remaining mindful in every act you perform.
YIN
Yin is a restorative yoga practice designed to ease our active bodies and minds. Yin affects the deeper fibers of our connective tissue to give us a serene, relaxation effect. All postures are practiced on the floor in a seated or lying position, with each posture being held for 3 to 5 minutes. Yin is the perfect compliment to our Vinyasa and Slow flow classes as a restorative measure to keep our bodies in check, allowing us to practice yoga for years to come.
RESTORATIVE
This restorative yoga class will consist of holding passive postures for an extended period of time, using different props to support the body allowing you to let go of any tension. This restorative practice gives the body remarkable effects in tension reduction, unwinding and relaxing and de-stressing.
