I have been practicing Yoga for over 15 years and received my instructor training in Dallas, Texas. Yoga is my lifestyle; it has taught me how to live life to the fullest! Yoga has taught me to live in the moment, to be thankful for my life, to appreciate this beautiful earth we have been given and to respect my body as my Divine Temple. Through the practice of yoga, my heart fills with love and I want to share it with the world. As the saying goes “Love heals all things”, we all have the capacity to live from the heart. I want to share this powerful life-altering lifestyle with all of you. So come to my studio and experience “YogaLove”! Then go out in the world and share it with your friends and family. You will be glad you did!!
Yoga Class Descriptions
Hot Yoga:
Based on Bikram Yoga’s twenty-six posture exercises, the session will systematically move fresh, oxygenated blood to one hundred percent of your body, to each organ and fiber, restoring all systems to healthy working order, just as Nature intended. Proper weight, muscle tone, vibrant good health, and a sense of well being will automatically follow.
The Hot Yoga, twenty-six asana series is designed to scientifically warm and stretch muscles, ligaments and tendons, in the order in which they should be stretched.
YogaFlow:
A dynamic yoga class that focuses on using breath to connect to the body, mind and practice. Using an energetic vinyasa flow as foundation, YogaFlow has the ability to build strength, increase endurance, release tension, and create more flexibility in the entire body. Suitable for students who have previous yoga experience.
YogaFIT with small weights:
This is a great class to tone your upper body. Combining classic yoga poses with small hand weights, you receive the benefits of yoga while toning specific muscles in your upper body. We will do the following exercises in every class: bicep and tricep curls, shoulder press, chest press, tricep press, back rows, lateral and frontal raises. Beginners and Advanced yogis are both welcomed to the class.
Yoga for Weight Loss:
This dynamic class focuses on yoga poses that target the large muscle groups (abdominals, quads, glutes and hamstrings) in order to increase metabolism and fat-burning. It is a very active class that will challenge your core and legs, while still providing the calm and peace of yoga. A great class for those serious about losing weight and gaining strength.
Hatha Yoga:
A classic approach to yoga that emphasizes physical detail and focus, while incorporating asana (postures), pranayama (breathwork) and relaxation. Providing stress reduction, increased flexibility and strength for those moving beyond the beginner stage. The class is student-based, moving at the pace of the class as a whole.
Senior and Gentle Yoga:
This class offers a gentle and healing approach to Hatha yoga. While appropriate for all, this practice can be used in the case of particular ailments to provide techniques for preventing and managing health concerns. The postures are designed to soften and gently stretch muscle tissue and to awaken the body’s natural structural alignment and movement. This class involves postural adjustments in every posture to find your body’s perfect alignment. Great for all levels!
Gentle Kripalu with Lor Pelton:
Kripalu (Krih-PAH-loo) means being compassionate in Sanskrit, the language of the yoga tradition. Kripalu YOga is a contemporary approach to yoga practice designed for mainstream people leading active lives. Anyone can do Kripalu Yoga-it certainly isn’t limited to those with a flexible or trim body. Kripalu Yoga allows you to choose the level of physical intensity right for your body. It recognizes that everybody is different and it activates the life force of the body that yoga calls prana. Kripalu Yoga encourages you to create a lifestyle supportive of your health by listening to your own body.
