Vinyasa/Hot Yoga: Vinyasa is the Sanskrit word for flow. These classes are all encompassing, combining techniques gathered from ancient texts all the way up to your modern day guru. During Vinyasa we are not only "flowing" from pose to pose but more importantly from breath to breath. We bring awareness into every step that we take through mindful application of technique and integrity, and accentuate the physicality with every breath that we take. In these classes the emphasis is placed on how we feel in the Asana (pose) rather than how we may look. You will experience various styles of Pranayama (deep breathing) to warm and prepare the body for the Vinyasa/Hot Yoga Flow Classes: These classes are intended for the more intermediate practitioner in a sense they are not taught and instructed they are more "lead". Using all the same techniques in the above description, moving at a more advanced, "faster" pace. Unless you have been working with Lori on a daily basis or have a solid practice it is recommended that you take class with Lori at least 5 times before attending this style class..."constant inspiration and the ideal of attaining perfection generate energy and help to maintain regularity in practice..." |
