Class Descriptions

Our classes are taught in a heated room to further help cleanse the body and warm the muscles.

Intro Series:
Designed for beginners or students new to Vinyasa yoga. This is a perfect opportunity to learn the basics and get a solid foundation so you will feel confident attending any of our classes at FSYC. You can also drop-in to take a class for the current class drop-in fee.

In this 6 week Intro Series, you will learn the basics of vinyasa (flow) yoga, alignment, stretching, standing and seated postures, as well as breathing techniques. Each class progressively builds on the previous one, preparing most students to move on to the basics or all levels classes.

Many people enjoy taking the Intro Series in order to soak up all the information and apply the knowledge to their practice. You will begin to experience some of the benefits that can arise from practicing yoga such as increased flexibility, strength, cardiovascular health as well as a sense of well being and relaxed awareness. This is a slow paced class in which you develop skills for an ongoing safe, effective yoga practice. An excellent introduction for students rehabilitating from past injuries or with limited exercise experience.

Mellow Vinyasa:
This mellow form of vinyasa yoga focuses on simple poses that flow from one to the other at a very comfortable pace. Students are encouraged to go at their own pace, taking time to focus on the breathing and meditation in their practice. The environment is set to complement the quiet nature of this all level flow experience.

Yin Yoga:
Yin Yoga uses long, passive holds to work on the deep, dense connective tissues of the body - the tendons, ligaments and cartilage - which are difficult to energize and open. This deep, passive practice settles you into poses for 3-5 minutes, bringing you inward. This practice increases flexibility, especially in the spine and hips and is very restorative and rehabilitative for the joints and muscles. Psychologically, it connects you to your intuitive and creative self. It is an excellent complement to other yoga classes. This class is appropriate for men and women of all ages, fitness and flexibility levels. Restore balance with this complement to your active practice, sports or other exercise, and your yang-dominant lifestyle. Absolute beginners to yoga are also welcome!

Intro Meditation / Gentle Yoga:
This class will be a blend of gentle yoga poses and meditation techniques to nurture the body's energy into balance and cultivate deep relaxation to help release stress and let the body/mind rest deeply. This is a wonderful combination for re-energizing the body and de-stressing the mind.

Whether you have just recently started to meditate or are looking to renew your commitment to your current meditation practice this class will support you in deepening your practice and your sense of balance and peace.
